How is the design of the research determined?
7. research: A healthcare organization has a high number of client complaints about
their discharge information. They want an evidence-based process for discharging
a client. Which source is the strongest evidence?
8. change
authority
time: What are the main reasons that organizations are slow to adapt to evi-
