What is nursing research?

Researchers look at problems and use data and analysis to find ways to fix or prevent the problem. Research can benefit patients, educators and administrators. Everyday we find ways to make life easier, new medications and new treatments. This is all accomplished through research. Researchers must follow strict guidelines when conducting research studies. "Conducting research is not as simple as saying I want to do research. To conduct a scientific research investigation, the researcher must have adequate training and resources", (Beyea and slattery, 2006, p 7).
