Introduction

This assessment provides an opportunity to research the literature and apply evidence to support what communication, teaching, and learning best practices are needed for a hypothetical patient with a selected health care problem.

NOTE: You are required to complete this assessment after Assessment 1 is successfully completed.

Preparation

You are encouraged to complete the Vila Health: Cultural Competence activity prior to completing this assessment. Completing course activities before submitting your first attempt has been shown to make the difference between basic and proficient assessment.

In this assessment, you will evaluate the preliminary care coordination plan you developed in Assessment 1 using best practices found in the literature.

To prepare for your assessment, you will research the literature on your selected health care problem. You will describe the priorities that a care coordinator would establish when discussing the plan with a patient and family members. You will identify changes to the plan based upon EBP and discuss how the plan includes elements of 

Healthy People 2030
.

Instructions

Note: You are required to complete Assessment 1 before this assessment.

For this assessment:

· Build on the preliminary plan, developed in Assessment 1, to complete a comprehensive care coordination plan.

Document Format and Length

Build on the preliminary plan document you created in Assessment 1. Your final plan should be a scholarly APA-formatted paper, 5–7 pages in length, not including title page and reference list.

Supporting Evidence

Support your care coordination plan with peer-reviewed articles, course study resources, and Healthy People 2030 resources. Cite at least three credible sources.

Grading Requirements

The requirements, outlined below, correspond to the grading criteria in the Final Care Coordination Plan Scoring Guide, so be sure to address each point. Read the performance-level descriptions for each criterion to see how your work will be assessed.

· Design patient-centered health interventions and timelines for a selected health care problem.

· Address three health care issues.

· Design an intervention for each health issue.

· Identify three community resources for each health intervention.

· Consider ethical decisions in designing patient-centered health interventions.

· Consider the practical effects of specific decisions.

· Include the ethical questions that generate uncertainty about the decisions you have made.

· Identify relevant health policy implications for the coordination and continuum of care.

· Cite specific health policy provisions.

· Describe priorities that a care coordinator would establish when discussing the plan with a patient and family member, making changes based upon evidence-based practice.

· Clearly explain the need for changes to the plan.

· Use the literature on evaluation as a guide to compare learning session content with best practices, including how to align teaching sessions to the Healthy People 2030 document.

· Use the literature on evaluation as guide to compare learning session content with best practices.

· Align teaching sessions to the Healthy People 2030 document.

· Apply APA formatting to in-text citations and references, exhibiting nearly flawless adherence to APA format.

· Organize content so ideas flow logically with smooth transitions; contains few errors in grammar/punctuation, word choice, and spelling.

Additional Requirements

Before submitting your assessment, proofread your final care coordination plan to minimize errors that could distract readers and make it more difficult for them to focus on the substance of your plan.

Portfolio Prompt: Save your presentation to your 
ePortfolio. Submissions to the ePortfolio will be part of your final Capstone course.

Context

Care coordination is the process of providing a smooth and seamless transition of care as part of the health continuum. Nurses must be aware of community resources, ethical considerations, policy issues, cultural norms, safety, and the physiological needs of patients. Nurses play a key role in providing the necessary knowledge and communication to ensure seamless transitions of care. They draw upon evidence-based practices to promote health and disease prevention to create a safe environment conducive to improving and maintaining the health of individuals, families, or aggregates within a community. When provided with a plan and the resources to achieve and maintain optimal health, patients benefit from a safe environment conducive to healing and a better quality of life.

 

Respond to two (2) of the following prompts:

1. How is masculinity described by the authors of our text? Using specific examples, discuss why patriarchal masculinity is not the only form of masculinity. (USLO 5.1, 5.3)
2. How is sexism explained by the authors of our text? Using specific examples, discuss how society propagates misogyny and objectification of women. (USLO 5.3)
3. Using one of the three theoretical primary sociological perspectives featured in our text (i.e., functionalism, conflict, and symbolic interactionism) discuss the social construction of gender. Present two tangible examples of how this theory best explains how gender is socially constructed. (USLO 5.4)
4. Where and how do you get your news? Do you watch network television? Read the newspaper? Go online? How about your parents or grandparents? Do you think it matters where you seek out information? Why, or why not? (USLO 5.5)
5. How have digital media changed social interactions? Do you believe it has deepened or weakened human connections? Defend your answer. (USLO 5.6)
6. Do you think technology has truly leveled the world in terms of opportunity? What is your community’s situation in terms of digital inclusion – do you feel there are communities in your region that are struggling to achieve digital inclusion and equity? What are some techniques that we may use to achieve digital equity and inclusion in the U.S.? (USLO 5.7)
7. In what ways has the Internet and digital apps changed your perception of reality? Explain using a symbolic interactionist, functionalist, and conflict theory perspective. (USLO 5.8)

article critique 

Please write a critique on a given article. 

Please follow the rubric. 

1.  Is the research study relevant to the study of nursing, (be specific and include examples from the article)?  

2.  Is the method/design appropriate in terms of the research question/hypothesis? 

What was the research question/hypothesis? Was it clearly stated? 

 Write how data was collected, method, procedure, sample. also write how data were analyzed.

 Key elements are discussed, and identification of items should be included. Provide a description of each of these key elements.  

3.      What   is the theoretical context? See chapter 7 in Polit & Beck. The terms   theoretical and conceptual frameworks are used interchangeably. Theories are   used to describe, predict, explain, and to control phenomena.   (Theoria is a Greek Word that means   beholding or speculation). 

“Theoretical   frameworks provide the organization for the study. It guides the researcher   in the interpretations of the results. the importance of the theory is   dependent on the degree of research based evidence and level of its theory   development. 

There are four levels of theory development 

1) factor isolating   (describe phenomena) 

2) Factor relating (explain phenomena), 

3) Situation   relating (predict the   relationships between/among phenomena), 

4) Situation producing (control   phenomena and relationships

**If   your article does not have a theoretical framework what do you suggest based   on Polit & Beck Chapter 7?  

 4. Describe the results of the study (identify if they are believable or not) 

5.  Are the results significant? In what way-explain use examples?  

6.   Are the results transferable? How? Transferability refers to the readers of the research to make connections but invites readers of research to make connections between elements of a study and their own experience. Transferability does not involve broad claims. How does this research apply to YOUR specific practice as a Registered Nurse?  

According to Brown (2005), Transferability can be enhanced by providing what is often referred to as thick description (i.e., giving enough detail so the readers can decide for themselves if the results

are transferable to their own contexts).  

7.  Implications for nursing practice, be specific how would this study impact nursing practice (use specific examples from the article)?  

8.  Implications for future research, be specific and use examples from the article.  

 The paper shall reflect a scholarly effort; proper grammar, coherence, spelling, and accurately use APA format. Have someone proof read your paper. Read your paper out loud to yourself.
