Week 2: Problem Identification and Description Using PICOT Format

i. Identify and describe the problem in clear and concise language. To help you

think about what problem you might choose, keep in mind the health or nursing

problems of the patient population(s) you currently serve, those you encountered

in your clinical courses, or those you plan to work with in the future.

•

• Describe the clinical setting.

• Describe the service area for the clinic and population groups who attend the

clinic services.

• What kinds of problems do you see in the clinic?

ii. Give a clear, explicit statement of the problem and target population, as well as

the background of the specific problem relative to the clinical setting.

•

• Is it broad enough that you can analyze it from many theoretical and conceptual

points of view and make suitable plans to address the problem from a number of

perspectives?

• Is it of enough interest to you that you are willing to spend most of the semester

thinking about it, assessing all its dimensions, planning in detail how to address

it, and designing a detailed intervention and evaluation plan?

iii. Describe the significance of the evidence-based project that could be
implemented in the selected setting to the nursing profession. Ask yourself why it
is important to you. Consider your own clinical interest.

•

• Describe clinical observations that point out the knowledge gap, clinical gap, etc.
• Describe the significant research in the area that has been done that delineates

the gap in our knowledge.

Your paper should be 3–4 pages in length, not including the cover or reference pages.
You must reference a minimum of 3 scholarly sources in your paper.

Use the current APA format to style your paper and to cite your sources.

Please think about these fields and then compare and contrast careers in recreational therapy and athletic training, address how these careers are the same and how they are different. Specifically, you should describe how you think they are most different and most similar, in terms of their scope and practice. Scope and practice refers to the specific work the professionals engage in. While you may mention educational or other lifestyle differences, you must address aspects of scope and practice to earn full credit for your response. Your answer should consist of two paragraphs. Be sure to use specific details or examples in your response! Be sure to refer to the syllabus for writing expectations as well as the rubric, below, for overall grading expectations.

What Sort of Leader Is Needed?

/in /by

 

Case Study

Two new associate-degree graduates were hired for the pediatric unit. Both worked three 12-hour shifts a week; Jan worked the day-to-evening shift and Rosemary worked the night shift. Whenever their shifts connected, they would compare notes on their experience. Jan felt she was learning rapidly, gaining clinical skills and beginning to feel at ease with her colleagues.

Rosemary, however, still felt unsure of herself and often isolated. There have been times that she was the only registered nurse on the unit all night. The aides and LPNs were very experienced, but Rosemary feels she is not ready for that kind of responsibility. Rosemary knows she must speak to the nurse manager about this, but she’s called several times, and she’s never available. The shift assignments are left in the staff lounge by an assistant.

Questions

Your discussion post should answer the following questions in a well-constructed commentary. Use references, in APA format, where appropriate.

  1. To what extent is this problem due to a failure to lead? Who has failed to act?
  2. What style of leadership was displayed by Rosemary? The nurse manager?
  3. How effective was their leadership? What are your suggestions for Rosemary?
