OMEBP / FinYHKÄ™ operational model
The Operational Model for Developing and Implementing Consistent Evindence-Based Practices (OMEBP, Finnish: FinYHKÄ™) is a support structure for development and implementation of evidence-based practices.
The main purpose of the operational model is to promote the realisation of evidence-based nursing in Finland, but it can also be utilised more broadly across social welfare and healthcare services.
The OMEBP was originally published in 2010 (named then: Operating Model for Developing Evidence-Based Practices, Finnish: YHKÄ™) and updated in 2024.

In the FinYHKÄ™ operational model, the development of evidence-based consistent practices is a process that comprises four main stages: 1) Identifying development needs concerning the current practice, 2) Planning the development and implementation of the consistent practice, 3) Developing and implementing the consistent practice, 4) Monitoring and evaluating the consistent practice
