Abstract

NURSE RESIDENCY PROGRAMS (NRPs) provide an opportunity to engage new graduate nurses in evidence-based practice (EBP). New graduates bring fresh knowledge, ideas, and energy to the practice environment and need to be embraced in a culture of EBP. This article will discuss lessons learned in providing support to new graduate nurses completing an EBP project as part of a NRP.
