Document Summary
Selecting the best theory to implement planned change. There are many ways of implementing change. However, planned change, which is a purposeful, calculated and collaborative effort to bring about improvements with the assistance of a change agent, is the most commonly adopted. The nursing and midwifery council (nmc) says nurses must deliver care based on the best available evidence or best practice", which suggests there is a continual need to update, or make changes to, practice. However, implementing change is more challenging than it is sometimes perceived. These are invariably coupled with restraining forces, such as poorly developed action plans, under- motivated staff, ineffective communication and inappropriate leadership. Change is vital to progress, yet the nursing literature identifies numerous complexities associated with transforming plans into action, and attempts at change often fail because change agents take an unstructured approach to implementation.
