  • Purpose
    This study developed a program to facilitate evidence-based practice (EBP) in one nursing organization, and identifies the effects of the program on the nurses' EBP facilitators.
  • Methods
    The program was based on the Transtheoretical Model of stages of organizational change, a literature review, the cases of hospitals overseas, and a prior study. To identify the effects of the program, a one-group pretest-posttest study was conducted with 45 nurses who participated in the EBP implementation.
  • Results
    The program consisted of EBP educational sessions, consultations with academic nursing faculty and clinical EBP mentors, and support from the administration and relevant departments. After the EBP program, there was a statistically significant difference in belief in the value of EBP between the pretest and the posttest (t=2.31, p=.026). However, no significant differences were found between the pretest and the posttest for organizational support to develop EBP (t=0.62, p=.537), skills in locating and evaluating research reports (s=−1.00, p=.987), knowledge of research language and skills (s=−1.00, p=.986), and time to devote to EBP (s=-23.00, p=.711).
  • Conclusion
    The findings provide important data that can be used to develop and implement strategies for enhancing EBP in clinical settings in Korea.
  • Key Words: Evidence-based practice; Program development
