An essential solution for nursing professional development
“ANPD and Wolters Kluwer share a vision for developing healthcare leaders and practitioners that make a real impact on patient lives. This collaboration ensures nurses who enroll in ANPD’s academies are grounding their skills in evidence-based practice through leading-edge workflow solutions,” said Rafael Sidi, Senior Vice President & General Manager of Health Research, Wolters Kluwer Health. “As the publisher of ANPD’s research publication, the Journal for Nurses in Professional Development, we are excited to add this new offering to our long-standing relationship.”
ANPD academy programs focus on advancing the specialty practice of nursing professional development. The organization serves as an expert voice, advocate, and leading resource for NPD. With evidence-based standards for professional development, NPD plays an essential role in quality, organizational, and patient outcomes.
Ovid Synthesis offers ANPD academies with trustworthy, EBP workflow applications to promote a culture of clinical inquiry and innovation, as well as collaborative education and practice among participants and mentors. The AI-enabled technology allows NPD professionals to seamlessly work through and implement system-wide EBP initiatives to fuel exceptional nursing care for every individual.
Streamlining evidence-based practice
“At ANPD we have over 7,500 members eager for innovative tools. Ovid Synthesis bridges the EBP theory-to-practice gap, streamlines the process from PICOT question to project completion, and empowers users to lead, using the most current evidence,” said Sheila St. Cyr, MS, RN, NPD-BC, President of ANPD. “We look forward to jumpstarting our year-long academies with Ovid Synthesis at this year’s ANPD Aspire Convention.”
