DEVELOPING A CULTURE OF EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE

To Prepare:

  • Review the Resources and reflect on the various strategies presented throughout the course that may be helpful in disseminating effective and widely cited EBP.
    • This may include: unit-level or organizational-level presentations, poster presentations, and podium presentations at organizational, local, regional, state, and national levels, as well as publication in peer-reviewed journals.
  • Reflect on which type of dissemination strategy you might use to communicate EBP.

Then Post a discussion post of at least two dissemination strategies you would be most inclined to use and explain why. Explain which dissemination strategies you would be least inclined to use and explain why. Identify at least two barriers you might encounter when using the dissemination strategies you are most inclined to use. Be specific and provide examples. Explain how you might overcome the barriers you identified. please provide at least 3 references

informatics

As you learned from the chapter, reading, and video lectures, the cost of health care is a major concern in the US. As we discussed, value-based models promise to bend the cost curve in the right direction. The article you read by Erickson et al (2020) is mostly from the point of view of physicians so it is always a good idea to think critically about articles like this. Do you think that the authors present solid arguments in favor of what they propose? Do you think their point of view is similar to what you read and think about ways to decrease costs while increasing quality? Do you think that their point of view considers other health care-related professions?

Hello Class,

In my future nursing practice, I have identified “Evidence-Based Practice” and “Teamwork and Collaboration” as the two Massachusetts Nurse of the Future Nursing Core Competencies that will have a significant impact. By utilizing evidence-based practice, I can ensure that my nursing interventions are backed by current studies and clinical data. This approach allows me to critically evaluate data and incorporate it into my decision-making process, ultimately improving the standard of care I provide. Additionally, evidence-based practice promotes ongoing learning and development, enabling me to stay up-to-date with the latest developments and make decisions that best serve my patients' well-being. Teamwork and Collaboration are equally crucial, as they reflect the interconnected nature of healthcare delivery. Effective teamwork ensures seamless patient-centered care, which is essential in nursing practice, given the need to work alongside various healthcare professionals. Collaborating with diverse team members enhances my ability to gather varied perspectives, share knowledge, and collectively address complex patient needs. This competency fosters open communication, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to achieving optimal patient outcomes (Masters, 2021).

The intersections between both competencies are evident, as evidence-based practice often requires collaboration among interdisciplinary teams to implement new findings and collectively improve patient care. By effectively utilizing evidence and collaborating with interdisciplinary teams, I can ensure that my nursing practice is not only evidence-driven but also inclusive and aligned with broader healthcare goals.

The AACN BSN Essential of Person-Centered Care is the most crucial feature that will significantly improve my future nursing profession. These essentials align with the core values of nursing and embody the holistic and empathetic attitude necessary for providing excellent patient care. Person-centered care promotes personalized, comprehensive care that takes into account each patient's unique requirements, preferences, and experiences. By focusing on the person's family, societal, and cultural circumstances, nurses can deliver just, respectful, and evidence-based care. Patient-centered care is the foundation of nursing practice because it strengthens nurse-patient relationships, encourages shared decision-making, and enables patients to participate in their treatment (AACN, 2021).

In my practice, person-centered care will improve patient experience and health outcomes. I can personalize my care plans to my patients' requirements by learning and respecting their diverse backgrounds, attitudes, and beliefs. This strategy targets physical, emotional, psychological, and social well-being. I also believe in healthcare team communication, empathy, and teamwork, which person-centered care supports (Masters, 2021b).

Finally, the AACN BSN Essential of Person-Centered Care aligns with my nursing ideals of providing holistic, compassionate, and tailored care that recognizes each patient's uniqueness. By embracing this fundamental strategy, I can improve patient outcomes and humanize healthcare by offering respectful, empowering, and values-aligned care.

COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY: COMPARING GROUP, FAMILY, AND INDIVIDUAL SETTINGS

There are significant differences in the applications of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) for families and individuals. The same is true for CBT in group settings and CBT in family settings. In your role, it is essential to understand these differences to appropriately apply this therapeutic approach across multiple settings. For this Discussion, as you compare the use of CBT in individual, group, and family settings, consider challenges of using this approach with groups you may lead, as well as strategies for overcoming those challenges.

Assignment

Post an explanation of how the use of CBT in groups compares to its use in family or individual settings. Explain at least two challenges PMHNPs might encounter when using CBT in one of these settings. Support your response with specific examples from this week’s media and at least three peer-reviewed, evidence-based sources. Explain why each of your supporting sources is considered scholarly and attach the PDFs of your sources.
