The theory-practice gap is one component of the barriers to implementing evidence-based practice. Texas Woman's University College of Nursing and Presbyterian Hospital of Denton joined forces to bridge this gap, allowing doctoral students to provide educational offerings to practicing nurses. Through a Graduate Assistance in Areas of National Need grant, doctoral students completed supervised teaching practicums at the hospital, assisting the hospital to implement evidence-based practice with the ultimate goal of applying for Magnet status. The hospital benefited from the addition of research expertise and mentoring for the staff members. The students benefited from the opportunities to teach and to share knowledge with these clinical experts. This program has been successful in meeting the needs of both parties. Recommendations are given for other institutions interested in establishing similar relationships.
理论与实践的差距是实施循证实践的障碍之一。德克萨斯女子大学护理学院与丹顿长老会医院合作以弥合这一差距，让博士生为在职护士提供教育课程。通过一项国家需求领域研究生助学金，博士生在医院完成了有监督的教学实习，协助医院实施循证实践，最终目标是申请磁石医院资格。医院因新增的研究专业知识以及对工作人员的指导而受益。学生则从教学以及与这些临床专家分享知识的机会中受益。该项目成功满足了双方的需求。文中还为有意建立类似关系的其他机构提供了建议。
