“…See Table 3 for an example of a research workshop. Support to build a research council, track research activities, and provide internal funding and indirect time, as well as recognition of the commitment, is critical (Day et al, 2017). These efforts are often more challenging for smaller facilities and those who are not Magnet designated.…”

“…One element of Magnet requires nurse participation in the development of “new knowledge, innovation, and improvements.” Given the need to have a program of nursing research, the low-level nurse research engagement and satisfaction should be of great concern among hospital leaders and nursing school faculty (Day et al, 2017; Hagan, 2018). Having knowledge when there is lack of available mentoring does little to promote quality improvement (i.e., EBP) or increase participation in clinical nursing research (Stutzman et al, 2016).…”

Nurses are expected to participate in research and scholarly inquiry; despite ongoing attempts, the practice-research gap continues to be fraught with significant barriers. System strategies have not addressed concerns at the individual nurse level. Given the implications on quality and safety, focusing on identification of individual nurse strategies should be an important focus of attention for nursing leaders and researchers. This article seeks to describe barriers, potential solutions, and implications for nurse leaders.

Hospital-Based Nursing Research: Clinical and Economic Outcomes

et al. 2021

We surveyed 181 nursing research leaders from Magnet® hospitals, using mixed methods with the online Hospital-Based Nursing Research Clinical and Economic Outcomes survey, to describe the clinical and economic outcomes of nursing research conducted in hospital settings. We used descriptive statistics to analyze the quantitative findings and a qualitative descriptive approach to study the open-ended responses. Most respondents reported that findings from their hospital-based studies were implemented on their units (88.2%), improved health care processes (88.2%), and reduced hospital costs (79%). Over 50% reported positive impacts on core quality measures, including improving patient/family satisfaction (76.8%), nurse satisfaction (65%), length of stay (59.1%), and infection rates (56.5%). Four themes were identified: study evaluation, improvements in care delivery/clinical outcomes, economic impact, and intrinsic and extrinsic rewards. Much of the research reported by respondents focused on quality measures with findings that resulted in improved clinical and economic outcomes.
