Evidence-based projects don’t fail because the evidence is weak. They fade when no one owns them beyond implementation.

In busy clinical environments, change without clear leadership ownership rarely lasts. This post looks at why—and what nurse leaders can do to make practice change stick.

When evidence-based practice is dismissed as “too academic,” organizations risk wasted effort, unnecessary costs, and avoidable patient harm. Developing nurse leaders who can critically evaluate and apply evidence is essential to achieving sustained quality and safety outcomes.

Not all nurses leave for the same reasons — so why are we still using one-size-fits-all retention strategies? In this post, I share new findings that suggest retention interventions must be tailored by education level and career trajectory, especially for BSN-prepared new grads.
