Evidence Base Research Shows...

[hppygr8ful]

I was joking with my boss today that from now on everything I say is going to start with "Evidence based research shows that.............and finish my thought.

Such as "Evidence based research shows that if you runaround with your shoes untied your going to fall on your face."

Let's hear yours and remember to begin with Evidence based research shows.........

Have fun

Research based evidence shows that the majority of typos involve two mixed up letters which results in the entire post being urined.

Evidence based research shows that little old ladies are 3 times more likely to try to kill you than any other patient.

Evidence based research shows that the gardener will always come to work on your neibor's lawn right after your night shift just as your about to fall asleep.

Evidence based research shows that 60% of the time, the patient you were given by your co-worker to watch during her break will take up the entire duration of that nurse's break but will finally settle down just as said nurse returns.

And us nurses have a great deal of experience with things being 'urined', bad-da-bing.

Regarding pigs, evidence based research shows that putting lipstick on a pig is difficult, annoys the pig, but makes the pig much more likely to be kissed*.

Miss Piggy must have told you that.

Evidence-based research shows that it's much better to follow a private duty nurse who keeps things neat and tidy. And sanitary.

Evidence based research also shows that there are certain nurses who rinse the feeding syringe and measuring cups ... but seldom wash them.

Evidence based research shows that the family that has been calling you 800 times and yelling at you when they visit have been neglecting "mom" at home and are trying to make themselves feel better now.

Evidence based research shows that a bruise didn't really happen if you didn't show it to the school nurse!

Evidence based research shows only the school nurse has the proper training to discuss body odor with that one 5th grade boy...

Incredibly specific! LOL

I don't know how to use emojis on here but it would be the one rolling

EBP states that this is the most up-to-date, unbiased, and most accurate method of providing your patients with the best care possible.

When my daughter was diagnosed with cancer my free time was spent researching evidenced-based practice and bringing my findings to the doctor. I am 99% sure doing so gave us a little more time with her.

I understand this article is a joke and appreciate the sentiment but I think that as practitioners we should always look to the research because health care is always changing. Also, in order to be respected in our profession and especially as providers at the forefront of health care in various roles such as an NP or hospital executive, we should be using EBP on a regular basis.

Evidence based research shows that evidence based research is real, effective, and necessary for all nurses to understand! I mean, my professor tells me that and she has a PhD so it must be true... right?

Well, most people I know who have spent the years getting a Ph.D actually DID learn a thing or two more than I have...

I agree, and yes, this thread is 100% a joke. I work on a hematology-oncology floor, and the most current evidence is a *huge* part of what we do. Many of my patients are on clinical trials, including phase 1 trials. For nursing, we update our policies and procedures every 2-3 years, and do a literature search prior to the updates.

I'm also sorry to hear your daughter was diagnosed with cancer. *Virtual hugs*. I love being an oncology nurse, but I keep hoping one of the clinical trials we have puts me out of a job.

With that being said, laughter is the best medicine, and I've gotten a lot of smiles from these posts.
