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.

A handbook of the updated OMEBP was published in May 2024 in Finnish and its Swedish and English translations will be published during 2025.
