- Title: Clearly state the topic (e.g., "Financial and Logistical Implications of Evidence-Based Practice").
- Key Financial Implications: Summarize the costs associated with training, resources, and technology needed for EBP implementation.
- Funding Sources: Identify potential funding sources and budget considerations for evidence-based initiatives.
- Logistical Challenges: Highlight at least three logistical challenges that may arise during EBP implementation (e.g., staffing, time constraints, access to research).
- Theoretical Frameworks: Briefly explain how different nursing theories (e.g., the Iowa Model) can guide the evaluation of resources and support EBP initiatives.
- Design and Visual Appeal
- The infographic should be visually appealing and well-organized. Consider the following:
- Use of colors, fonts, and images that enhance readability.
- Logical flow of information with clear headings and sections.
- Appropriate use of graphics, charts, or icons to represent data and information.
