    Author: Saydak SJ, Mierzwa IP, Robinson JA, Lewis DJ.
    Journal: J Nurs Staff Dev; 1989; 5(2):61-4. PubMed ID: 2723774.
    Abstract:
    Staff development educators are instrumental as change agents in identifying the need for change, developing and implementing a strategic plan to unfreeze, change, and refreeze learning behavior, and evaluating its effectiveness. This article examines an attempt at one facility to implement nursing diagnosis into daily practice through the use of Lewin's change theory. The impact of driving and restraining forces is discussed as they facilitated or hindered adaptation to change throughout the process.
