Evidence-based care essay

Give a positive comment on the following evidence-based care essay and edit the same.
The healthcare organizations are moving to have more bachelor prepared nurses so; they can help make patient care decisions. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommends nurses to have a BSN or higher to help with the overall changing healthcare system. By 2020, they want 80% of nurses to have a BSN or higher. Why? Nurses need to have an expanded more knowledge of different areas of nursing and evidence-based practice. As hospital care has become more complex, nurses must make critical decisions associated with care for sicker, frailer patients and work with sophisticated, life-saving technology (Garner, 2011). Evidence-based practice is vital to provide the most effective patient care to improve patient outcomes because patients are becoming more complex.
ORDER A CUSTOM-WRITTEN PAPER NOW
Two ways that the author will continue to integrate EBP into their practice is continued education on the subject at hand to keep up to date on changes in patient care to help with improvement in patient care. Also, another way is to Engage colleagues and educate them on new EBP practices, studies, or interventions that may benefit their work environment or patients (Chrisman, Jordan, Davis, & Williams, 2014)
Obstacles to the plan for the author would be nurses resisting change and management not helping with the implementation of the plan. Education to the nurses will be the first of why this is helpful for our patient’s outcomes versus the old way of doing things. Showing articles and statistics will help bring the point across. Getting management on board to help with implementation as well. Management will be made aware that providing the evidence-based care will improve patient outcomes and decrease healthcare costs.

I could really relate to the article by Howard Rossi because I too would like to live in an egalitarian society (Schepici, 2012). Some of the reasons that our society is not egalitarian now, are physical, cultural, economic, age, and geographical differences. Hiring preferences based on any of these differences seems completely beside the point. At work, the most important difference to have is between experienced employees and newer apprentices.
Experienced employees are going to be the people who were chosen by employers in the past, so as employers learn to manage their implicit and unconscious biases (Schepici, 2012), I hope that improves. In workplaces, the focus should be on providing excellent work, not homogenized, or over priced work, but sustainable work.
If people are able to manage their biases, then their good sustainable work can be provided to everyone. This is the best case scenario of an egalitarian society, that everyone shall have equal access to jobs that they will do well because they benefit equally from the work.
By creating diversity in the workplace that is based on a range of experience, it can facilitate job mobility, and job stability. However, there is no way that one type of diversity can be used as a substitute for any other. All kinds of oversight are important, but I believe that keeping experienced employees who would like to continue, as well as giving new employees the opportunity to learn from their experience is the most important thing for work places.

  • It seems that diversity or a lack of has been a big problem in America.  A lot of people that live in this country have the ethnocentric attitudes that were prevalent from 1619 on through to the 19th century. We have made a lot of progress over the past 30 years, and one of the areas where there were changes in the workplace. It didn’t happen overnight; however, before the 1980’s and 1990’s, there was Affirmative Action which helped the college campus become more diverse. Some people didn’t like it because they felt it was unfair. The resisters claimed it chose race over qualifications for attending college. The other side felt if it wasn’t for Affirmative Action, they had no other way to be accepted at a four-year university. There were a lot of demonstrations and anger on both sides. I don’t know if that was the right decision or not. However, the American Civil Liberties Union helped to broaden the definition of diversity in the 80’s and 90’s yo include ethnicity, nationality, work areas, height, weight, sexual orientation, and more (Kahn). Of course, there were even more people angry over that. They are the ethnocentric ones.
    In 1999 I became employed at a residential treatment center in Detroit, Michigan. I was White, and every other staff person was Black. There was some reverse racism towards me because of some of the other employees did not like the fact that a White person was working at there facility. I  was a little uncomfortable because some people were mean. It wasn’t going to stop me. Eventually, though getting to know each other and communicating every day, I was accepted by the entire staff. Some of the meanest quit or were fired. I have been there for 19 years, and I have met some good friends, been to weddings, and funerals of some coworkers that I miss dearly. We talk the same language, just different. The key is understanding each other, getting to know each other. Racism, Bias, Discrimination do not belong in our America. I will end my final post with a quote from one of my favorite theorist, W.E. Du Bois; “America is not another word for to all Opportunity to all her sons.”

Ethical Issue and Action Plan

After completing the assignment preparation study in Unit 5, you will work with your teammate to write a 5–6-page paper, in which you and your teammate will first summarize the ethical issue and then construct an ethical analysis based on the application of ethical principles and current psychological research. Using research findings will strengthen the support of your analysis. You will then formulate an action plan to ameliorate the problem.
In summary, teams will write up a persuasive argument and plan to resolve an ethical dilemma. Analysis of the ethical dilemma, application of psychology principles, support for the course of action, and ability to work as a team using critical thinking skills are the key areas of focus for this assignment.
At the end of the unit, each team member will submit the team assignment to the assignment area.
Note: In this assignment, you will continue to work with the same case study that you chose for your previous assignments.
Instructions

. The ethical issue in the case you have chosen.
.  How professional standards and other resources, in general terms, point toward solutions.
. Analyze how the issue relates to larger societal problems.
· Create a heading titled Applied Ethical Principles and Standards: Use the APA Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct to assess which of them relate to the particular ethical issue in this case, and analyze how they do so.
· Create a heading titled Alternative Solutions:
. Brainstorm several alternatives for resolving the ethical dilemma in the case. Thoroughly analyze the possible ramifications for at least three alternatives. Then, choose a course of action.
. Explain your chosen course of action and support it based on ethical principles, APA ethical standards, and current psychological research (within the past decade).
· Create a heading titled Action Plan:
. Provide an action plan with recommendations for how to resolve the problem you researched in a fair and just manner, based on the theory and research findings you have discussed.
. Make clear how the objectives of your plan are specific, measurable, achievable, and relevant to the problem, and the timeline for implementation.
. Integrate information from your sources to support your recommendations.
· Create a heading titled Conclusion: Briefly summarize the importance of the problem and make a compelling appeal for implementation of your action plan.
