The Evidence‐Based Practice Mentor: Findings From a Role Delineation Study to Support the Role's Needed Knowledge and Skills
Findings from this study support the EBP mentor role and will guide interprofessional EBP education and EBP mentor positions in healthcare systems. The study showed that the tasks of the EBP mentor were consistent across settings, educational degrees, and professional roles. Validity for the tasks/role for an interprofessional Evidence-based Practice Certification was clear and outlined expectations for the EBP mentor role.
