The EBP project focused on teaching nurses how and why to properly educate patients in
the preoperative area (immediately prior to having surgery).An evidence-based Practice
(EBP) Council is an inter-professional team that is changed with improving patient care
through changes in processes and protocols. Typically these teams are represented by
members of nursing leadership, nurse educators, quality improvement representatives and
staff nurses.For this assignment, discuss how each of these team members (Perioperative
leadership, Perioperative education, and preoperative nursing staff) could be actively
involved in problem solving and action planning for the dissemination of the contents of
your EBP project. Devise a mission statement for the team. Consider Tuckman’s five stages
of group development in building an effective team: Forming, Storming, Norming
Performing, and Adjourning. Provide a description of each phase and discuss possible
facilitative and potentially obstructive behaviors for teamwork within each of these
stages.Mission statement must include: (1)Target audience of EBP (preoperative nursing
staff)(2)The contribution of the EBP PROJECT IDEA (educating patients to help them make
informed decisions and possibly avoid future turmoil).(3) What makes the project valuable
to internal and external stake holders.Assignment Blueprint:Introduction of an EBP Inter-
