A Virtual Nursing Journal Club: Bridging the Gap Between Research Evidence and Clinical Practice

Jacquelyn Rosen et al. J Nurs Adm. 2019 Dec.

Abstract

Creating a nursing journal club is an initiative to promote nurses' use of best evidence in practice. A virtual nursing journal club (VNJC) was implemented in a Magnet-designated, midsize community hospital. The VNJC fostered nurses' reading nursing research studies and subsequent interaction with other nurses. The VNJC's formation, implementation, and evaluation are described. Quantitative and qualitative research critique items and an evaluation form are included that are essential to the site's ongoing processes.
