Capstone and Practicum PICOT Statement Paper In order to provide a higher quality of patient care, nurses should implement evidence- based practice. To begin this process, a clinical question needs to be formulated using the PICOT format. Then the search for the best evidence begins with searching in databases such as Proquest, MEDLINE, and CINAHL for relevant qualitative and quantitative articles or journals. Once the journals and articles are obtained, they must be critically appraised to determine which ones are the most valid, reliable, and relevant to the PICOT question (Melnyk, Fineout-Overholt, Stillwell, & Williamson, 2010).

Evidence-Based Solution Typically, the transfer of care report is conducted away from the patient. It is either done by an inconsistent handwritten report or by a telephone call from a nurse that was not taking care of the patient and was not fully informed of all the patient details. Therefore, there is substantial potential for miscommunication, which can lead to medical errors.
