The work of the school nurse does not end with the institution of an evidence-based intervention. The steps of EBP tell us that we must “Assess” the effectiveness of an intervention to determine if it is having the desired effect. When we find success in our EBP changes we must come full circle and share or “Alert” stakeholders and other school nurses by disseminating our work. School nurses can share their success through written and oral presentations to insure that we add to our collective school nursing knowledge.
