Evidence-based practice is a key skill in the toolkit of the master's-prepared nurse. Its goal is that health care practitioners use the best available evidence to improve population health outcomes and make the best clinical decisions (Gallagher et al., 2020). In essence, evidence-based practice is all about ensuring quality care.
