a research knowledge
4-The BSN prepared RN has a research knowledge base that pushes critical thinking and process improvements and change. Challenging policies in place and ensuring the pediatric clinic I work in is using the most up to date and best practices when caring for patients is one of my goals. It is also important o me to educate staff on the changes including providers and nurses. Thus far, they have been receptive to change and I have had little push back. There are a few staff members that continuously challenge me and my research but it helps me gain more knowledge and to show professionalism and integrity to staff when dealing with conflict and change. Knowing that a BSN prepared RN is leading the pediatric clinic is comforting to the providers and staff within the clinic and there is a lot of trust instilled in the advocacy to our patients by practicing with EBP. The BSN prepared RN has the research to become even more innovative with new health care strategies.
