Barriers to Nurse Involvement in Inquiry
Nursing practice based on research evidence has been shown to promote positive patient outcomes.
Organizational culture is a determinant of nurses' use of research in practice.
Healthcare organizations must develop a supportive environment that addressed these barriers in an effort to attract nurses who share a similar philosophy to positively influence the organization's research culture and ultimately the care patients receive.
(Karkos & Peters 2006; Bahadori et al 2016).
