Synopsis

All nurses, students and practitioners must now ensure that their practice is research-based -that is, that activities are grounded in and responsive to research findings. To do this nurses must become research aware - able to read and interpret research findings and apply them to practice. Some nurses will become involved in doing research, but the vast majority will be expected to apply research in practice. Nurses need to be confident with research and its teminology, and to become research-minded. Thistitle will help nurses understand what research is, the methods, and how to apply it in practice.
