Abstract
The Pastoral Care department at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore embarked on an evidence-based practice (EBP) project to identify best practices for improving nurses' well-being. This article describes the EBP model and its application. The project resulted in increased nurse awareness of the chaplain's role, nurses' confidence in using chaplain services, and nurses' well-being. The project's success indicates the value of chaplains learning an EBP model and incorporating it into their practice.
