Best Practice Guidelines (Registered Nurses Association of Ontario)
Professional looking site, with many useful guidelines available.

Well known Australian developed site, with a wealth of resources available, some resources only available through subscription
Evidence-Based Nursing (University of Minnesota)
Quite a reasonable site with good bibliography and history
Evidence-Based Nursing Practice Filters in PubMed (from NLinks)
By using some really big built in search strings, one can search Pubmed using these predefined searches, adding your own terms
The Research Center is mainly working on the development of a database called the Evidence Based Nursing (EBN) Matrix. Another purpose is to develop a virtual research center in which other nursing organizations or nurses may conduct online research

NGC is an initiative of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. NGC was originally created by AHRQ in partnership with the American Medical Association and the American Association of Health Plans (now America's Health Insurance Plans [AHIP]).
Oncology Nursing Society Evidence-Based Practice Center
The primary intent of the Evidence-Based Practice Resource Center is to provide nurses a guide to identify, critically appraise and use evidence to solve clinical problems. It also can assist nurses—especially advanced practice nurses—who are helping others in developing evidence-based practice protocols.
Star Model of Evidence-Based Nursing Practice
To quote from the site ,the Star Model of Knowledge Transformation ® is a model for understanding the cycles, nature, and characteristics of knowledge that are utilized in various aspects of evidence-based practice (EBP). The Star Model organizes both old and new concepts of improving care into a whole and provides a framework with which to organize EBP processes and approaches. Known as the ACE Star Model, it is a simple, parsimonious depiction of the relationships between various stages of knowledge transformation, as newly discovered knowledge is moved into practice. It is inclusive of familiar processes and also emphasizes the unique aspects of EBP. The ACE Star Model places nursing's previous scientific work within the context of EBP, serves as an organizer for examining and applying EBP, and mainstreams nursing into the formal network of EBP.
