Ensuring adequate training, recognition, and easy access to the Internet is the most comprehensive strategy that addresses multiple barriers to the use of evidence-based practice in nursing. Adequate training ensures that nurses understand how to use evidence-based practice, recognition reinforces the importance of evidence-based practice, and easy access to the Internet allows nurses to easily access relevant and up-to-date research.
