Answer:
Lack of human resources (shortage of nurse),
Lack of internet access at work
Explanation:
Evidence Based Practice in nursing requires adequate human resources. There should be sufficient nursing personnel to carry out effective tests on patients to allow hundred percent verification of their conditions before treatments are provided. In most hospitals in the world, there are shortages of nurses that will carry out this function. This is a barrier to evidence based practice.
Most hospitals, especially in underdeveloped societies do not have access to uninterrupted internet services, some health care practices require constant connection to the internet to be effectively carried out.
Government should ensure that adequate nurses are employed in hospitals and proper internet facilities are provided for Evidenced based medical services to be provided.
Answer:
Two barriers that might hold nursing practice from achieving evidence-based practice includes:
1. Lack of time to read literature.
2. Lack of staff experience in evidence-based practice.
Explanation:
Evidence-based practice (EBP) simple entails acquiring the latest or current health evidence and using these current evidence to support the care of individual patients and also improve quality of health services delivery. EBP goal is to make available the most effective care by improving patient outcomes.
The first barrier in achieving the goal of EBP is lack of time to read literature ( medical journals) by nursing personnel. The nursing personnels have heavy workload attached to them. These gives them little or no time to read about the latest practices that has brought about improvement to health services.
One of the ways to address this barrier is to set time apart either daily or weekly for nursing personnels to read about the current health evidence and approach so as to improve service delivery to individual patient.
The second barrier is Lack of staff experience in EBP.
Most of the nursing personnels do not have the knowledge or skill to interpret statistical data and also how to efficiently use the computer to conduct literature searches and utilize the research process that is they lack the ability to work with computer.
One way this barrier can be addressed is to train nursing personnel on effective use of computer to conduct literature seach and to train them on how to use various statistical analysis tools available.
