THE ROLE OF EVIDENCE BASED PRACTICE IN IMPROVING PATIENT OUTCOMES IN MEDICAL NURSING EDUCATION

Abstract

Evidence‑based practice (EBP) is a foundational principle in modern nursing and medical education. It integrates clinical expertise, patient values, and the best available research evidence to support clinical decision‑making. This article explores the significance of EBP in medical nursing curricula, its impact on patient outcomes, and the challenges faced by educators and students in implementing EBP in clinical settings. By emphasizing research literacy and critical thinking, medical nursing colleges can foster a generation of professionals capable of delivering safe and effective patient care.
