Do you ever feel like you're
re-inventing the wheel?

Do you wonder how other nurses are addressing patient care needs and achieving excellence in practice through the use of evidence?

These and other questions stimulated us to develop the National Nursing Practice Network® (NNPN), a consortium of acute care healthcare agencies committed to the use of evidence-based practices (EBPs) through a collaborative model designed to promote shared learning and participation. Member organizations represent nurses in 32 states in the U.S., Puerto Rico, and Singapore, and consist of community, academic, and VA hospitals. We are excited about the work we are doing and the future possibilities for continued improvement in patient care.
