What did you learn about physical assessment and the role of the professional nurse?

/in /by

 

Health Assessment Reflection Guidelines

The purpose of the Health Assessment Reflection is to document your laboratory experience to promote self-growth and understanding of the importance of physical assessment in the delivery of safe patient care. At the end of your health assessment laboratory experience, reflect upon your experiences, your knowledge, skills, attitudes, and your impressions.

Your reflection is to be written at the completion of all laboratory practice experiences. You are expected to submit your completed reflection (2 page typed summary) to your laboratory instructor at the time of your scheduled Lab Practical Final. See Health Assessment Reflection Rubric. Your reflection is an expectation of the physical assessment learning activities and will be included in your Professional Behavior and Participation Grade.

Use the ideas below to begin your notations. Each question does not have to be answered. These are limited examples to encourage your reflection focus. Formulate your own style. You may write using first person: however, you are responsible for using appropriate grammar and syntax and cite APA as appropriate (include cover sheet).

What did you learn about physical assessment and the role of the professional nurse?

How did you prepare for laboratory experiences?

What knowledge, skills, or experiences helped you in understanding the role of the professional nurse and physical assessment?

What communication skills (both verbal and written) did you develop?

How did you or will you use the knowledge gained in this experience in caring for clients in NUR 315 and/or future clients?

Submit reflection to laboratory instructor at scheduled Laboratory Practical Final Exam.

Search the Capella library and the Internet for scholarly and professional peer-reviewed articles on medical technology used to manage patients post-hospitalization. You will need at least three articles to use as support for your work on this assessment.
Directions
Assume you work in a rural health care center. The facility just received a generous grant from a health care foundation. The funds from this grant must be used to acquire new technologies to foster better health outcomes for residents who live in remote areas. The Director of Nursing has formed a committee to research types of patient care technologies that are available to manage and monitor patients upon their release from care. You have been asked to look into the different types of technologies available for patients who are discharged from the hospital and cannot travel hundreds of miles for frequent follow-up appointments. You were also asked to provide evidence-based research to support your selections.
Write a 34 page report for the committee that provides your findings:
Format this report following current APA style paying close attention to headings and subheadings paragraph structure and proper grammar spelling and punctuation.

proposal paper

Question descriptionThe final capstone project is a culmination of the written research-based assignments completed throughout the course. Each written assignment contributes to the final Evidenced-Based Proposal paper. This is the first written assignment.

Think about what you have learned with regard to the five critical steps of evidence-based practice. In a formal paper of 500-750 words, address the following:

Part 1: Defining the Problem

  1. Identify and describe one topic that may resolve a patient-care-quality problem or issue.
  2. Draft a possible problem statement.
  3. Describe a problem. Explain why it is a problem, and why it is significant to your discipline. Use the literature you gathered as support for why this is a problem in relation to your practice. The problem should focus on the resolution of an issue significant to improving patient care.
  4. Draft a purpose statement in relation to your problem statement that states what you hope to accomplish if you implemented this project.

Part 2: Defining a Searchable, Answerable Question

From what you wrote about your problem and purpose, develop searchable questions using the PICOT format that will be the basis for your implementation plan. Word count is not relative in this section. Include evidence-based resources.

General Requirements:

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide

Appeals to authority – generally this fallacy considers an argument that we should listen to based on some “false” or “non” authority. Is this happening in your argument example?

/in /by

 
Assignment Details Part 1:  Please find an argument to analyze.  Be creative!  Some suggestions are to use a commercial, letter to the editor (or op/ed piece).  Analyze the argument you choose.
· What is the main purpose of the argument?
· Is it inductive?  Deductive?
· Are there any fallacies being used?  If so, which ones?
Part 2: Does the argument align with a philosophical theory or theorist? Choose one philosophical theory or theorist and explain – from that perspective – what you would change to make the argument better.  Think about the steps that you could use to improve the argument. For example, if you pick Socrates as a theorist think of how Socrates would reflect upon and engage the argument for change.   Look for common fallacies like:
· Circular thinking – typically restating the premise in the conclusion and creating a “circular” argument
· Appeals to authority – generally this fallacy considers an argument that we should listen to based on some “false” or “non” authority. Is this happening in your argument example?
· False cause – in this fallacy the writer or speaker attributes a “false” cause to some effect or result (often you will see superstitious thinking used here).
· Sweeping generalizations – this fallacy occurs when an individual makes generalizations (usually stereotypical thinking)
· Equivocation – in this fallacy a person confuses two senses of the meaning of a word (like a free animal- is it free because it doesn’t cost anything or is it free because it is not in a “cage”?)
· Red herring – very common in political settings.  This fallacy is a distraction (think of a big red fish – pretty distracting, right?)
Utilize at least 2 credible sources to support the arguments presented in the paper. Make sure you cite them appropriately within your paper, and list them in APA format on your Reference page. Your paper should be 4-6 pages in length, not counting the Title page and Reference page. In accordance with APA formatting requirements, your paper should include a Title and Reference page, should be double-spaced, and include a running head and page numbers.

Explain the empirical research presented in your assigned article, applying appropriate citations and references.

/in /by

 

Prior to beginning this discussion, please read and view the following required sources:

  • “Flexible Retrieval: When True Inferences Produce False Memories”
  • “Memory Suppression in Alzheimer’s Disease”
  • “Mnemonic Instruction in Science and Social Studies for Students with Learning Problems: A Review”
  • “Short-Term Memory and Long-Term Memory Are Still Different”
  • “The Development of Real-Time Stability Supports Visual Working Memory Performance: Young Children’s Feature Binding Can Be Improved Through Perceptual Structure”
  • Memory

In your initial post, you will apply what you learned from each of the five articles, but you will discuss the findings and implications for just one of these articles. The articles are assigned based on the first letter of your last name. Please see the list below to determine which of the articles you will focus on for your initial post based on the first letter of your last name:

  • A through E: “Flexible Retrieval: When True Inferences Produce False Memories”

In your initial post,

  • Explain the empirical research presented in your assigned article, applying appropriate citations and references.
  • Describe, in your own words, how the research relates to your own experiences as well as how this area of psychology may have affected your past or current beliefs about memory development. Do the research findings refute or support your current beliefs, and in what ways? Are there variables about memory of which you were unaware based on your article?
  • Apply skeptical inquiry to the potential problems that might arise from research in the area of memory, and relate it to the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct.
  • Provide a rationale for whether or not this premise is valid and/or appropriate based on the findings reported by the assigned articles.

It is recommended that you research articles in the Ashford University Library to support your assertions if the required articles do not provide sufficient information. Your initial post should be at least 500 words in length.
