SEARCH-BASED QUESTIONS

To prepare:

  • Review the Learning Resources, with particular attention to the Walden University Library resources to support your literature search.
  • Evaluate your process as you access the resource materials and your literature search gets underway. Keep in mind the importance of selecting current literature, i.e., published in the previous 5 years. Consider what is working for you in identifying search topics related to your critical question and in finding relevant current articles, and what questions you have for colleagues and your Instructor.
  • Also draw on your past Discussion experiences in identifying scholarly articles related to your critical question and comments from colleagues to act on as you begin your literature search. Be proactive in stating your questions and needs and clarifying your search process, to maximize the value of this Discussion 

Post a summary of your experience in beginning your literature search and assess your initial progress. Explain what is working for you in terms of a plan or search strategy for finding relevant, current literature, including Walden Library support resources you would recommend. Explain issues of concern and specific questions regarding the search process. References and citations are not required.

Peer response

Respond to two of your colleagues by recommending strategies to overcome the challenges your colleagues have identified. Support your recommendation with evidence-based literature and/or your own experiences with clients.

ethical arguments

Choose a case from the https://journalofethics.ama-assn.org/cases and take a position. For this assignment you will evaluate the ethical arguments for or against the issue. Identify the potential legal arguments (consider current federal guidelines), indicate any potential professional code conflicts you foresee, and support your position with an explanation of your own ethical/moral foundation.

  • Identify the issue and state your ethical position.
  • How might this scenario play out or impact you in your role as a nurse practitioner? 
  • Defend your position with legal, ethical, and professional evidence.
  • As part of your position, propose strategies and solutions for addressing the issues.
  • What other ethical issues does this case bring to light, if any?

Support your position with at least one scholarly source.  Be sure to cite the article you choose, use APA format, and include a title page and reference page.

Treatments for Genitourinary Tract Disorders

  1. Describe urinary tract infection, causes, symptoms and treatment
  2. Discuss treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia
  3. Describe overactive bladder, causes, symptoms and treatment 
  4. Treatment options and recommendations for different STIs (Chlamydia, Gonorrhea and Syphilis)

TRANSLATION MODELS AND FRAMEWORKS

  • Review the Learning Resources below. Pay particular attention to the featured frameworks/models, below, in the White, Dudley-Brown, and Terhaar text.
  • Identify the translation science framework or model that is most relevant to your practice problem from among the following three models and consider your reasoning:
    • Roger’s Diffusion of Innovations (pp. 36–39);
    • Knowledge-to-Action (pp. 42–45);
    • Theory of Reasoned Action (pp. 66–67).
  • Assess your understanding of “translation science” and how you would explain it in the context of evidence-based practice and quality improvement.

With these thoughts in mind …

Post an explanation of the translation science framework or model that you selected and explain why it is most relevant to your practice problem. Be specific and provide examples and at least 3 references

Talking With Patients About Quitting Smoking

Because of the serious detrimental effects of smoking, education about quitting smoking is a priority for nursing interventions when caring for patients who smoke. Major organizations that emphasize the role of nurses in helping patients quit smoking include the American Nurses Association, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations. 

You have been charged with developing a Quick Facts Information Sheet on the Risks of E-cigarettes for Kids, Teens, and Young Adults.

You start with the following information below: what else do you believe would be important to include in your one page FLYER.

What Are E-cigarettes?

· E-cigarettes are electronic devices that heat a liquid and produce an aerosol, or mix of small particles in the air.

· E-cigarettes come in many shapes and sizes. Most have a battery, a heating element, and a place to hold a liquid.

· Some e-cigarettes look like regular cigarettes, cigars, or pipes. Some look like USB flash drives, pens, and other everyday items. Larger devices such as tank systems, or “mods,” do not look like other tobacco products.

· E-cigarettes are known by many different names. They are sometimes called “e-cigs,” “e-hookahs,” “mods,” “vape pens,” “vapes,” “tank systems,” and “electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS).”

· Using an e-cigarette is sometimes called “vaping.”

Images of a E-pipe, E-cigar, large-size tank devices, medium-size tank devices, rechargeable e-cigarette, and a disposable e-cigarette.

 

Create a flyer to use in a community out reach clinic with your teens and young adults.

TEACHING OUTCOMES

My topic is on DIMENTIA.

I WILL LOVE TO HAVE 4 MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS AND ITS ANSWERS WITH EXPLANATION TO THE ANSWER

Discussion # 1

 

Theoretical Models of Nursing Leadership

You  are the nurse manager on a busy medical-surgical unit. You have been  requested to attend a hospital administration meeting with your Chief  Nursing Officer (CNO) and the hospital Chief Financial Officer. The CNO  explains that nurse−patient staffing ratios on every unit are being  increased, and your ratios must also increase by 1-2 patients on both  the day and night shift. The CNO assures you this is a temporary issue  due to the seasonal high census, and this decision is not open for  debate. You are shocked and don’t know how to respond initially.

Question #1

Using the Theory of Emotional Intelligence: Page 56

a) Describe how you will demonstrate self-management and social competence to regulate your emotions in this scenario?

b) Discuss how you will respond to your CNO by using this leadership theory.

Question #2

a)  Determine how you will present the new nurse−patient staffing ratios to  your nursing staff by using the Theory of Quantum Leadership.
