Welcome to the CEEBP
The Center of Excellence in Evidence-Based Practice (CEEBP) is a Permian Basin initiative whose collaborative partners are the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center School of Nursing and Medical Center Hospital. The mission of the CEEBP is to improve the care and safety of patients through research, education, practice, and adoption of "best practice" as demonstrated through multiple avenues.
The mission of the CEEBP is achieved through the following activities:
- Explore application opportunities of evidence-based practice in rural Texas and beyond
- Facilitate research utilization for practice based on evidence found in rural and community agencies
- Promote evidence-based practice in a variety of health care settings to improve patient outcomes
- Establish research and education programs to aid multidisciplinary health care providers in the delivery of evidence-based practice
- Use a holistic approach to emphasize patient values/preferences in clinical decision making
Strategic Goals:
- Identify at least two evidence-based practice (EBP) opportunities per year
- Conduct at least one research utilization project in a practice setting in a rural/community agency per year
- Identify and collaborate with at least one non-acute health care setting per year
- Develop, implement, and evaluate at least one education/research EBP involving other health care providers per year
