Can I use qualitative studies in an EBP paper?
Yes, when your question is about experience, acceptability or barriers rather than effectiveness. The hierarchy of evidence ranks designs for questions about effectiveness, and applying it to a question about how patients experience something produces the wrong answer.
This comes up on Nursing Research and EBP Support, where it is answered in the context of the work itself.
