Nurses’ implementation of evidence based practice in nursing process and its associated factors in South Wollo Zone public hospitals, Northeast Ethiopia: a mixed method study

Abstract

Nurses' implementation of evidence-based practice in the nursing process was low. Age, working in general hospitals, and comprehensive and specialized hospitals, lack of training, and internet access were factors that had significant associations. Hence, hospital managers should give an attention to internet access and training about utilization of evidence-based practice in nursing process, particularly for those aged above thirty years old.
