Science is subject to inevitable evolutionary change. Philosopher of science Thomas Kuhn defined a scientific revolution as a period in time during which a particular field of scientific knowledge is set to transition to a new paradigm that will propel it toward a new milestone. Because person-centered care embraces the universal values of trans-disciplinary healthcare teams, evidence-based healthcare represents a paradigm shift toward evidence-based nursing. The rapid development of evidence-based practice is an evolutionary process of revolutionary importance to science. The resulting era of evidence based nursing will help fully realize the development potential of the nursing sciences. This article introduces the process of knowledge construction in evidence-based nursing, reviews the literature to identify the general model used to promote evidence-based nursing internationally, and proposes practical strategies to promote evidence-based nursing in Taiwan. We hope this article will help further promote the clinical application of evidence-based nursing and the development of nursing science. |
