Summary:From the original Magnet study (1981) to now, health care organizations have begun to embrace the Magnet Recognition Program in record numbers. A visit to the Magnet web site ( http://nursingworld.org/ancc/magnet.html) listed 186 Magnet hospitals, with many more healthcare facilities currently under review. As the Magnet Recognition Program has grown, so has the development of evidence-based practice (EBP). In fact, EBP is one of the cornerstones of the Magnet Recognition Program, as well as the involvement of staff nurses in research and/or EBP activities. This article will give a brief introduction of the Magnet Recognition Program and suggest activities that will involve staff nurses in EBP.
