Empowering nurses to produce evidence that supports practice
What do we do?
We work with academic nurses, clinical nurses and nursing students to begin, conduct, complete and publish scholarly projects.
How do we do it?
We work with you to
- Identify a scholarly topic on a significant problem you want to work on
- Develop a project proposal that will address the problem
- Implement the project: IRB approval, data collection, implement an intervention
- Analyze outcomes and interpret statistical findings
- Write the final report, manuscripts for publication and scholarly presentations
- Develop evidence-based policies with plans for ongoing quality/performance improvement.
Return on Investment
By investing in Elevating Healthcare Scholarship (EHS) services, academic nurses, clinical nurses and nursing students can accelerate research timelines, improve clinical outcomes, and strengthen their academic and clinical reputation. EHS delivers value through faster time to publication, increased grant funding potential, enhanced patient care quality, and improved student, faculty and clinical staff productivity and retention. Institutions are likely to see a net positive ROI when factoring in reduced project costs, higher productivity, and the strategic benefits of evidence-based practice integration. Institutions that produce high-impact scholarship attract better faculty, students, and clinical staff which improve institutional reputation as a leader in the field of nursing scholarship.
Why do we do it?
Nurse scholars connect patient care with evidence-based solutions. The field faces challenges because there are insufficient senior nurses with experience in conducting and mentoring scholarly projects to support the growing number of emerging nurse scholars eager to conduct, complete and publish scholarly projects.
