l#on l#evidence l#indicating l#that l#the l#decisions l#are l#clinically l # appropriate,

l#cost-effective, l#and l#result l#in l#positive l#client l#outcomes. l#Although l#all l#of l#the

l # people l#listed l#would l#benefit l#from l#the l#development l#of l#a l#scientific l#base

l#for l#nursing l # practice, l#ultimately l#it l#is l#the l#clients l#themselves l#who l#would

l#most l#benefit, l#as l#they l#would l # then l#receive l#the l#most l#appropriate l#and

l#most l#effective l#care.
