Abstract
Background: The field of study Teaching of Vocational Subjects for Nursing Schools, the completion of which contributes to obtaining a teaching qualification at the master's level, is amongst the most prestigious fields at the Faculty of Education, Palacký University Olomouc. In the academic year of 2018/2019, the students of this field are involved in the pilot project introducing and teaching Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) methods. The concept is based on the experience of The Czech Republic (Central European) Centre for Evidence-Based Healthcare: A Joanna Briggs Institute Centre of Excellence team.
Objectives: The aims of this short communication are, first, to provide information about the pilot project and the implementation of EBP methodology into selected subjects at the Faculty of Education, and second, to provide information regarding the establishment of a working group for the foundation of the Centre for Evidence-Based Education.
Methods: To implement the EBP method into the training of healthcare professionals, four syllabi of the currently taught subjects were updated and improved to include this methodology, and a brand new subject was created with the title 'Evidence-Based Education and Healthcare'. The faculty received approval from the National Accreditation Bureau for Higher Education and in September 2018, teaching of EBP topics was launched for a group of 95 full-time and part-time students. The academic year of 2019/2020 will see the introduction of the new subject 'Evidence-Based Education and Healthcare'.
Results: The outcomes of the project include an adjusted content of the subjects 'Scientific Components in the Health Education Curriculum' and the 'Diploma Thesis Seminar', the new subject titled 'Evidence-Based Education and Healthcare', and the strategic plan for the Conception and establishment of the Joanna Briggs Institute affiliate Evidence-Based Education Centre.
Conclusion: It is appropriate to implement comprehensive EBP modules, with several subjects within the study curriculum. Current activities are the preparatory, motivational phase of potential development.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Evidence-Based Healthcare is the official journal of the Joanna Briggs Institute. It is a fully refereed journal that publishes manuscripts relating to evidence-based medicine and evidence-based practice. It publishes papers containing reliable evidence to assist health professionals in their evaluation and decision-making, and to inform health professionals, students and researchers of outcomes, debates and developments in evidence-based medicine and healthcare.
The journal provides a unique home for publication of systematic reviews (quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods, economic, scoping and prevalence) and implementation projects including the synthesis, transfer and utilisation of evidence in clinical practice. Original scholarly work relating to the synthesis (translation science), transfer (distribution) and utilization (implementation science and evaluation) of evidence to inform multidisciplinary healthcare practice is considered for publication. The journal also publishes original scholarly commentary pieces relating to the generation and synthesis of evidence for practice and quality improvement, the use and evaluation of evidence in practice, and the process of conducting systematic reviews (methodology) which covers quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods, economic, scoping and prevalence methods. In addition, the journal’s content includes implementation projects including the transfer and utilisation of evidence in clinical practice as well as providing a forum for the debate of issues surrounding evidence-based healthcare.
