Similarly, some activities in research are considerably risky to the participants, especially the vulnerable groups. As there is need to protect the vulnerable groups. One of the methods to protect personal rights of individuals in the vulnerable group is through the establishment of safety monitoring plans to ensure effective supervision the personal rights of participants to ensure they are secure. Other than ensuring security of participants, safety monitoring plans also ensure integrity, timeliness, and quality at every stage in the project. The other method of protecting rights of vulnerable groups is through compliance with rules implemented by regulatory boards and committees such as ethical review boards. The norms provided by these bodies are intended to safeguard privacy of vulnerable participants, rights, and safety based on the measurements on the risk-benefit scale. Moreover, the methodology used in collection of data should be confidential to protect the privacy of the participants (De Chesnay & Anderson, 2019).\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nRegarding the consideration of patients\u2019 values and nurse\u2019s clinical judgment in applying the evidence in clinical decision making for an individual patient, nurses are encouraged to factor in both EBP and patient-centered care. Sometimes these two paradigms appear mutually exclusive and challenging to reconcile. Both the provider\u2019s perspectives and the patient\u2019s values and preferences need to be weighed equally in the decision making process. Essentially, the EBP can become patient centered by considering and integrating patient\u2019s perspectives and values into clinical trials designs and by enabling patients with strong preferences to be engaged in their treatment plan (Scheunemann et al.<\/span>,<\/span><\/i> 2019). Integrating patient values and preferences into EBP is crucial in strengthening the ability to tailor EBP interventions for the individual patient. It also helps the patients to understand and share their unique values and preferences, which is critical for patient-centered care.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nReferences<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nDe Chesnay, M., & Anderson, B.
