護理人員是跨健康照顧專業團隊的靈魂人物，基於護理知識發展的藝術與科學，提供每位個案與家庭實證健康照護。護理人員不僅是人數最多且提供24小時床邊照護的守護者，更應透過反思實踐，發展獨特的護理知識，五項策略以發展實證為基礎的護理科學知識於轉型照護，包括：(1)實徵地反思執業服務範疇、(2)嚴格建構護理知識之方法學、(3)解放護理科學知識的創新轉型、(4)以病人為中心的跨專業領域之間的合作、及(5)倡議護理教育轉型改革。護理人員在各層級醫療體系服務，是重要的健康照護提供者。護理人員提供最前線的實證轉型照顧，理應與其他醫事人員價值相等且相互尊重，都是以病人為中心，進行解放行動研究實施實證健康照護。

As clinical scientists on the interdisciplinary healthcare team, nurses use the art and science of current nursing knowledge to provide evidence-based healthcare to each patient and his/her family. Nurses not only comprise the largest contingent of medical personnel and provide 24-hour patient care but are also professional scientists that develop unique nursing knowledge through reflective practice. Five strategies for expanding the body of current evidence-based nursing scientific knowledge include: (1) reflecting empirically on the practice-service domain, (2) developing nursing knowledge using rigorous methodology, (3) emancipating nursing knowledge using innovative transformation, (4) using collaborative interdisciplinary healthcare that is based in patient-centered care, and (5) initiating innovative transformation in nursing education. Nurses are critical healthcare providers that make important contributions to today’s healthcare system. Nursing scientists provide frontline, evidencebased transforming care that deserves to be respected and valued on an equal basis with the care and services that are provided by other medical personnel.
