Using the Site

The major sections are listed at the top of the pages
  • Definitions provides a list of commonly used terms.
  • The EBP Process section identifies steps involved in developing evidence-based practice, discusses each step in detail, and provides a list of EBP references.
  • Topic Reviews provides a list of reference articles and examples of integrated reviews for common oncology clinical problems.
  • The Toolkit has slide presentations, webcasts, and articles on evidence-based practice, as well as examples of evidence-based projects that oncology nurses have completed.

Helpful Hints
  • The Navigational Tools in the column at the left can assist you to quickly go to an area of interest. If you are looking for particular information, clicking on the specific “What are you Looking for?” topic of interest will take you directly to that section of the website.
  • Some sections of the content are more detailed and are step-by-step guides to accomplishing that area of the process. Other sections direct you to excellent resources that provide such guides.
  • When reviewing listed references, if the total text of the reference is available online, clicking on the author's name will take you to the article. Otherwise, clicking on the author's name will take you to the Reference List where you can find the complete citation.
