This article aims to share the experience of a large academic medical center’s journey
to build a highly engaged, strong-performing, and productive Evidence-Based Practice,
Research, and Innovation Shared Governance Council. An experiential learning approach
was initiated to further engage and teach staff nurse council members about evidence-based
practice (EBP) and research. Using monthly council meetings, the Evidence-Based Practice,
Research, and Innovation Council successfully completed 1 EBP project and 1 research
project. Staff nurses appreciated the connection between research, EBP, and the development/refinement
of nursing policies.
