The Institute of Medicine has stated a goal that 90% of practice be evidence-based by 2020. According to HealthyPeople. gov, the United States is currently at approximately 15%. Discuss two barriers that might hold nursing practice from achieving this goal, and suggest ways in which identified barriers may be addressed.

Lack of human resources (shortage of nurse),

Lack of internet access at work

Explanation:

Evidence Based Practice in nursing requires adequate human resources. There should be sufficient nursing personnel to carry out effective tests on patients to allow hundred percent verification of their conditions before treatments are provided. In most hospitals in the world, there are shortages of nurses that will carry out this function. This is a barrier to evidence based practice.

Most hospitals, especially in underdeveloped societies do not have access to uninterrupted internet services, some health care practices require constant connection to the internet to be effectively carried out.

Government should ensure that adequate nurses are employed in hospitals and proper internet facilities are provided for Evidenced based medical services to be provided.
