| Abstract | Background: Nurses serve instrumental roles in ensuring and providing evidence-based practice. Numerous opportunities exist for nurses to use evidence to make care more effective. Aim: to improve nursing interns' attitude, knowledge and skills towards evidence based practice (EBP) after implementing an educational program. Methods: A quasi-experimental research study was conducted in 2015 with a convenience sample of 40 nursing interns from Faculty of Nursing, Menoufyia University, Egypt. Results: the majority of the study subjects had a positive attitude toward EBP before and after the program. In relation to skills, more than one third of the subjects had high skills toward EBP in pre test. While, this percentage was increased to 80 % in the post test. Moreover, less than half of the study subjects had fair knowledge about EBP in the pre test. However, in the post test, the majority of the study subjects had a good knowledge about EBP after implementing the program. These improvements were statistically significant. Conclusion: Statistically significant improvements in nursing interns' attitude, knowledge and skills regarding evidence based practice after implementing an educational program. Recommendation: incorporating EBP into the curricula of the bachelor of nursing program. |
