Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a critical component of modern nursing that integrates clinical expertise, patient values, and the best research evidence into the decision-making process. This study examines the role of EBP in improving patient outcomes, enhancing safety, and increasing the quality of healthcare services. The findings indicate that EBP significantly contributes to reducing clinical errors and improving patient satisfaction.
