RESEARCH REFLECTIONS—PART I: e-Mentorship: Navigation strategy for promoting oncology nurse engagement in research
Abstract
The research process is like a long and winding road involving a series of enroute stops or destinations. Stops along the road can extend from identifying gaps in knowledge about oncology nursing practices, to implementing a research study, or promoting the uptake of study results into practice. Often, detours in the road map or research plan are required to enhance the methods and address unexpected problems. The ultimate destination or aim for proceeding down the road to research is to generate and apply evidence-based knowledge to improve nursing care.Â
