Foundations of Evidence for Nursing Associate Practic

Annotated Bibliography

Provide an annotated Bibliography of two primary research articles: one Qualitative and one Quantitative.

This assessment task is part 1 of the two assessments towards developing your theoretical and practical understanding of evidence based practice. You are required to engage in a literature search and submit an annotated bibliography (1,000 words).

In order to meet your learning outcomes, you will need to choose one from the following themes:

• Infection Control

• Hydration and Nutrition

• Person-centred Care

• Communication

Use ‘Communication’.

Once you have a chosen theme, identify 2 research articles from a peer reviewed journal related to nursing practice that highlights an area of practice that links to the themes above (L.O2). One article must be based on QUALITATIVE and another QUANTITATIVE research methods.

Your papers MUST be primary research published with in last 5 years (systematic reviews/opinions/ literature reviews are not allowed).

Assessment 2

Assessment Briefs including the criteria mapped to Learning Outcomes.

Assessment Brief: Chose and critique one of the provided research articles. This assessment task is part 2 of the two assessments towards developing your theoretical and practical understanding of evidence based practice.

You are required to critique a primary research paper (2,000 words) using the CASP tool. You will then need to apply the principles of evidence-based practice outlined in the module; to effectively critique your chosen article and consider its application to clinical practice.

The writer can choose the article they are most comfortable with.

Identify the Community as a SOCIAL SYSTEM:Discuss Each of the following in relation to the population served, as well as availability and accessibility of services

Community Health Assessement: Hagerstown, Maryland

This assignment is defined in detail in Chapter 15 (Community as Client: Applying the Nursing Process), and will demonstrate that you truly understand all concepts involved in the role of community health nurse.

The nursing process is a problem-solving process that addresses community health problems at every aggregate level with the goals of preventing illness and promoting public health… It is a management process that requires situational analysis, decision making, planning, organization, direction, and control of services, as well as outcome evaluation.

As a management tool, the nursing process addresses all aggregate levels… It is a process for implementing changes that improve the function of various health-related systems and the ways that people behave within those systems. (Allender, Rector, & Warner, 2010, p. 400).

If you can complete this project successfully, you will be demonstrating a comprehensive knowledge of the community health concepts.

In nursing practice, accurate identification and application of research is essential to achieving successful outcomes.

The ability to articulate research data and summarize relevant content supports the student’s ability to further develop and synthesize the assignments that constitute the components of the capstone project.

The assignment will be used to develop a written implementation plan.

For this assignment, provide a synopsis of the review of the research literature.

Using the “Literature Evaluation Table,” determine the level and strength of the evidence for each of the eight research articles you have selected.

The articles should be current (within the last 5 years) and closely relate to the PICOT question developed earlier in this course.

The articles may include quantitative research, descriptive analyses, longitudinal studies, or meta-analysis articles.

A systematic review may be used to provide background information for the purpose or problem identified in the proposed capstone project.

This assignment uses a rubric. review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
