Introducing NASN's School Nursing Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guideline: Students with Seizures and Epilepsy CPG Implementation Toolkit.

Abstract

Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) are evidence-based statements that provide recommendations for best practice and are intended to improve healthcare quality and outcomes. The NASN released the updated School Nursing Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guideline for Students with Seizures and Epilepsy to provide evidence-based recommendations specific to school nursing practice and support the role of the school nurse in providing high quality care for school-age children with seizures and epilepsy. In early 2024, NASN released the School Nursing Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guideline: Students with Seizures and Epilepsy CPG Implementation Toolkit. The implementation toolkit is designed to provide school nurses with tools and resources to implement evidence-based recommendations into their practice. This article will provide an overview of the clinical practice guideline and implementation toolkit.
