At UCLA, a thirst for new scientific knowledge to guide nursing practice is part of our identity. We believe that clinical and leadership practice should be informed by current evidence and tailored to meet the needs of those we serve. UCLA nurses are challenged to seek and adopt evidence-based best practice, innovate to improve care, share their ideas and learn from their experiences. We have established structures and processes to support research development, utilization, education and dissemination, and created an environment that embraces a healthy spirit of inquiry and creativity as we build and apply the science for healing humankind.
