Establishing system-wide evidence-based nursing practice requires the support of senior leadership as well as adherence to a model that is sensitive to the challenges of practice change. ⋯ A successful EBP program requires (a) consistent long-term vision and support from senior leadership; (b) resources such as trained personnel, finances, and time; and (c) structured approach to create an environment that facilitates the process. However, the success of an EBP program relies heavily on each nurse's commitment to change designed to improve nursing care for patients.
