This dissemination project taught me a lot. It really taught me how to prioritize main points and things I can do to grab the audiences attention. In this case, the audience is nurses and my group and I decided to do our project on retention rate of new nurses because that is a huge population of nurses and can help not only newly graduated nurses, but charge nurses and experienced nurses who play a huge role in teaching those young nurses. It was really nice working with my clinical group because we had all seen similar things on our floor and knew what we had to research once we identified the problem. It was amazing seeing everyone different points and perspective on the topic and I think it was really interesting seeing how our work as student nurses can still affect working floor nurses and even charge nurses. It made me realize that all nurses, no matter a student or experienced, all have a voice and that is the amazing thing about EBP is that is helps people notice a common problem which then helps find a common goal. I really enjoyed doing this project and working this hard to see the final project all done was all worth it.
Everything you can imagine is real.
