Literature Searches An important step in the EBP process is reviewing the current body of literature to better understand the subject or topic in which you are interested. By conducting a review of the literature, you are building foundational knowledge about the topic; later, you can use this background to build new insights. Developing a strong grasp of a topic can only be garnered by taking the time to thoroughly search for relevant information and resources. For this Discussion, you will practice searching the literature to find evidence on a specific topic. To prepare:

  • Choose a simple search term(s) relating to a topic of your PICOT question.
  • Review the information on the evidence hierarchy discussed in Chapter 2 of the course text, in the article, “Facilitating Access to Pre-Processed Research Evidence in Public Health,” and in the multimedia presentation “Hierarchy of Evidence Pyramid,” found in this week’s Learning Resources.
  • Review the information on the Walden Library’s website, “Levels of evidence.” Take a few minutes to explore the different types of databases available for each level of evidence and focus on the meaning of filtered and non-filtered resources.
  • Conduct a literature search in the Walden Library on your selected topic using the databases that you reviewed. Use at least one database for each of the three levels of filtered information and at least one unfiltered database. Record the number of hits that you find at each level of the hierarchy of evidence.
  • Select one article from the results at each level of the hierarchy. Compare the articles based on the quality and depth of information. What would be the value of each resource if you were determining an evidence-based practice?
Post on or before Day 3: 
  • (1)a summary of your search.
  • (2) Describe what topic you selected, the search term(s) that you used, and the number of results found at each level of the hierarchy.
  • (3) Compare the types of information found in the articles from different levels and the value of the information from each level.
  • (4) Highlight a useful tip that you could share with your colleagues about conducting an effective literature search.

Psychology 171 Assignment 6
Bringing it Home
Objective: Over the course of Psyc 171, you’ve learned about the
influences of social development and how important things like
attachment to caregivers, nurturing, attentive parenting and
social competence are for the development of solid friendships
across childhood. As noted, these social skills and attachments
can help prevent mood and anxiety disorders, addictions and
poor performance in academic pursuits. Becoming aware of the influences of family on your own social
development and the way you view relationships and conflict can help you deal with any lingering
“baggage” and learn new skills to make your relationships with adults, and children, better. Many
people, in times of conflict with children, will note how they heard their own parent’s voices come
through and this is often met with surprise. 😊The purpose of this assignment is to explore some of
those family dynamics and how they might be influencing you as adults.
A. Introduction: Use this section to introduce your immediate family: parents, grandparents, siblings, aunts and
uncles…anyone of importance.
B. Make-up of Roles: Use this section to talk about the roles in your family – division of labour, household chores,
parents as rulers vs. collaborators, children as lesser or equal citizens, evidence of gender stereotype in the
division of the roles (for example, mom does most of housework/childcare, dad does yard work, car repair, etc.)
Has any of this spilled onto the way that you do things?
C. Family Rituals and Customs: Use this section to talk about common customs in your family – maybe around the
holidays, birthday celebrations, holidays, dinner rituals, etc. (For example, in our family, gifts are always found by
following elaborate scavenger hunts, and at Christmas we read the children’s book “ The Night Tree” and decorate
an outdoor tree with carrots, apples, cranberries, suet, etc. for the wild animals.) Do you continue any of these
rituals now that you’re an adult?
D. Parenting Styles: Use this section to talk about your parent’s parenting style – Permissive? Authoritarian?
Authoritative? Uninvolved? Give examples to back up your claim…what effect did this parenting style have on
your development through childhood and adolescence? Now? (could consider things like how you established
your own personal identity, how comfortable you are making decisions, acceptance of authority, etc.)
E. Rules: What were some of the spoken and unspoken rules in your house (e.g. of spoken might be “Your curfew
is midnight” vs. unspoken…toilet paper installed so that it rolls over the top). Do you find yourself following these
rules now as an adult? What do you think might influence this?
F. Conflict: How did your family resolve conflict? What impact does that have on your relationships today?
G. Love Story: How did the people, movies and peers around you affect your “love story” (script around what a
relationship “should” look like?) Does it affect your relationships now? How?
Feel free to divide this into the sections listed above. Full, formal sentences. 3 pages or so. Let me
know if you have any questions, okay? 😊

Discussion—Barriers and Differences in Treating Women

Treating substance-abusing women can be a completely different entity from treating men. Often, women who abuse substances face significant barriers when seeking treatment, and are often in need of therapeutic techniques specifically tailored to suit their needs.
Keeping this in mind, and using the textbook, lecture materials, and other scholarly resources, respond to the following questions:

  • 1Describe the barriers that women face when seeking treatment.
  • 2.Compare and contrast how these barriers differ from the barriers faced by men.
  • 3.Recommend several treatment modifications that should be made for women in treatment.
  • 4.Explain why these modifications are important and how they are different from treatment for men.

Write your initial response in approximately 300–400 words using APA standards. PLEASE BE DETAILED ORIENTED.

Question
Write a critical analysis of the Chronic Bronchitis, a type of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.
Make sure you cover lung function tests and how it will be affected in a person with COPD 
Included in this analysis, you will need to explain how the disease you chose
affects the various body systems where relevant.
The following relevant and concise information must (if pertinent) be included in your write up.
1. Name of disease
2. History of the disease
3. Description of disease
Anatomy of the system(s) involved
1. Effects on other body systems
2. Cause of disease
3. Signs and symptoms
4. Diagnosis of the disease
5. Complications, if any
6. Treatment and side effects
Conclusion should include the following:
1. Brief mention of current or proposed research that may significantly impact Malaria.
2. Prevention strategies if any
3. Your insight / opinion.
NOTE: you must focus on the anatomy & physiology of the disease/disorder. Cover the normal anatomy & physiology of the organ system affected and then state what the disease/disorder does to this organ system, and other organ systems. In other words, if you are writing about Tuberculosis, I do not want you to go too much in detail about the bacteria that causes it but how the bacteria escapes our body’s defenses and what the bacteria does to the lungs, bones, etc. 

VARIETY OF NURSING CAREERSMANY PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA OF

Many people have no idea of the depth and variety that can come with a degree in nursing.  As examples you can work in Doctor’s offices, work as a school nurse, as a legal nurse consultant, as a SANE/SART nurse (sexual assault nurse examiner), as a Director of Nursing, as a state inspector, and as an MDS coordinator.  You could also work for insurance companies, call lines, and as a hospital nurse you could work in many different specialities such as emergency departments, inpatient psychiatric, substance abuse units, surgical units, cardiac cath units, infusion therapy, medical units, cancer units, and labor and delivery, just to name a few.

Flash reflections are assignments that help you to better understand the material. Flash reflections are included in this course work to get you thinking about how the issues and information presented in the course might apply to the real-world. Responses should should contain sufficient detail to both show your understanding of the material and answer all the questions posed. Refer specifically to the assigned videos and readings in your responses.
Watch and consider the videos assigned to date in light of the course readings and answer the following questions about them:
Describe your personal thoughts and experiences on how women offend differently than men and contrast that with what is described in the course materials.
Feel free to share any personal experience with criminal offending you are comfortable sharing.
Consider the theories to explain female criminality and offending that were covered in this module. Which of them do you find the most convincing? Which is the least convincing? Why? Explain your answer for each theory you selected.
Trace the evolution of the typical Criminal Justice response to female offenders and the impact that feminism has had over that evolution. Which of these evolutionary changes do you see as the most important for women and crime? Why? Explain your choice.
 
 

 

ITS IMPORTANT TO MEET COMPETENCES .

REQUIRED RESOURCES TO DO THIS JOB ATTACHED AT THE END !!!

Create 1–2 page outlines of your response plan for three intervention scenarios.

Nurse leaders need to quickly identify a strategy for evaluating a nursing leadership problem and the dynamics related to the problem, in order to orchestrate intervention efforts and put together a plan of action that leads to stakeholder cooperation.

By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

  • Competency 1: Integrate key nursing leadership, management, and communication concepts into collaborative practice situations.       
    • (IMPORTAT) -Explain concepts of change theory and how it can be used as a tool to manage situations.
    • (IMPORTANT) -Describe an effective leadership style to address a problem.
  • Competency 2: Explain the accountability of the nurse leader for decisions that affect health care delivery and patient outcomes.       
    • (IMPORTANT) -Describe how outcomes or success of the style selected for each situation could be measured.
  • Competency 4: Apply professional standards of moral, ethical, and legal conduct in professional practice.       
    • (IMPORTANT) -Explain how professional and legal standards guide the effective nurse leader when making decisions.
  • Competency 5: Communicate in manner that is consistent with the expectations of a nursing professional.

Preparation

Use the Capella library and the Internet to research change theory, leadership, and communication strategies. Use the Suggested Resources to research leadership and communication concepts and change theory.

  • The challenge in this assessment is to create a response plan for several intervention scenarios.      
    • There are three deliverables required for this assessment.

Rationale for this assessment:

Nurse leaders solve problems or resolve conflict on a daily basis. Understanding how change theory can be applied to a situation and examining various types of interventions in advance can relieve pressure on the nurse leader and improve the workplace environment and outcomes. Rehearsing potential interventions provides a mental toolkit on which to rely during stressful times.

Your management training workshop continues:

The second day of HR’s Nursing Leadership Workshop is designed to help you identify and practice effective responses and interventions to common problems and situations. Participants are presented with three scenarios and must create a response plan for each scenario, in the form of a 1–2 page outline.

Deliverables: Submit three Response Plans to complete this assessment.

  • Choose 3 of the 5 Intervention Scenarios linked in the Required Resources for this assessment.
  • For each scenario you choose, develop a separate Response Plan in the form of a 1–2 page outline. 
    • Label each outline using the example below:        
      • Example: Response Plan for School Nurse.

Instructions

Analyze each Intervention Scenario and describe the leadership, communication, and management strategies you believe would be most effective for each situation.

Use the following subheadings to organize your Response Plan outline for each situation.

  • Change Theory: Explain concepts of change theory and how it can be used as a tool to manage situations.
