Thinking back over this course, what were the three most important or most interesting things you learned? How do you envision using the information you learned in your future nursing practice? What steps will you take to ensure your success in the master’s program?
1. Paper Topic
Discussion Topic
Top of Form
Submit your paper topic in this discussion board. Argue the significance of the chosen issue in improving global public health. You need to select a community/state within a low/middle income (developing) country afflicted by the selected global public health problem.
Each topic should be supported by two studies from peer-reviewed journals.
Word limit 350, APA in-text citation and reference list required.
When student submitted the previous topic comments professor did
Good attempt! But more work is required, you need to cite 2 studies from a chosen country in Africa – please select one country only, example Nigeria and all articles should be focused on that community. For the paper you need 5 studies from the same country on the same topic. For each study you will review – Purpose, methods, results and recommendations.
Please submit your articles and citations – this needs to be re-done, I will re-grade.
This is too broad and what are your variable. This is not a study and also looks like a copy paste – you need to write in your own words.
Here is a suggested topic and paper:
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/19443994.2013.734677
Effect of ritualistic bathing on water quality of Ganga river in India.
See if you can find similar studies that explore the impact of independent variable (bathing) on dependent variable (water quality)
You need total 5 such studies.
All the Best,
Dr. Puri

Purpose
The Topic Search Strategy paper is the first of three related assignments. The purpose of this initial paper is to briefly describe your search strategies when identifying two articles that pertain to an evidence-based practice topic of interest.
Course outcomes: This assignment enables the student to meet the following course outcomes.
1. Examine the sources of knowledge that contribute to professional nursing practice. (PO 7)
2. Apply research principles to the interpretation of the content of published research studies. (POs 4 and 8)
Preparing the assignment:
Follow these guidelines when completing this assignment. Speak with your faculty member if you have questions.
a. Paper should be 3-4 content pages in length. Title and reference pages are required but are excluded from 3-4 -page length.
2) The paper will include the following sections:
a. Clinical Question
· Describe the problem. What is the focus of your work?
· Explain the significance of the problem in terms of patient outcomes. What health outcomes result from your problem? Or what statistics document this is a problem? You may find support on websites for government or professional organizations.
· PICOT question in support of the group topic.
· State the purpose of your paper. What will your paper do or describe? This is like a problem
statement. “The purpose of this paper is to . . .”
b. Levels of Evidence
· Identify the type of question being asked (therapy, prognosis, meaning, etc.).
· What is the best type of evidence to answer that question (e.g., RCT, cohort study, qualitative study, etc.)?
c. Search Strategy
· List search terms and results.
· Databases used (start with the CU library). Link your search with the PICOT question described above.
· Refinement decisions. As you did your search, what decisions did you make in refinement to get your required articles down to a reasonable number for review? Were any limits used? If so, what?
· Identification of two (2) most relevant articles (primary sources published within the last 5 years).
d. Format
· Correct grammar and spelling.
· Include a title page.
· Use of headings for each section.

4 goals – each goal should be:
Specific
Measurable
Achievable
Relevant
Time-Bound.
Address the following Short Answer prompts for your Assignment. Be sure to include references to the Learning Resources for this week.
Triage involves the rapid assessment and prioritization of patients. Compare the three-tiered system of triage to the Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) triage philosophy. Imagine that you are the Triage Nurse during an MCI. How will you categorize the following patients using the MCI triage philosophy? Explain your answer. Are there any ethical issues that should be considered?
1-Write a case conceptualization (2-5 paragraphs) from a CBT perspective that includes a hypothesis. Do NOT include any multicultural factors.
2- Write another case conceptualization (2-5 paragraphs) from a multicultural perspective that includes a hypothesis. Focus on all multicultural and contextual factors associated with this case.
Both case conceptualizations (Word document, single-spaced, 12pt font,
DEVELOPING A CULTURE OF EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE
As your EBP skills grow, you may be called upon to share your expertise with others. While EBP practice is often conducted with unique outcomes in mind, EBP practitioners who share their results can both add to the general body of knowledge and serve as an advocate for the application of EBP.
In this Discussion, you will explore strategies for disseminating EBP within your organization, community, or industry.
To Prepare:
· Review the Resources and reflect on the various strategies presented throughout the course that may be helpful in disseminating effective and widely cited EBP.
· This may include: unit-level or organizational-level presentations, poster presentations, and podium presentations at organizational, local, regional, state, and national levels, as well as publication in peer-reviewed journals.
· Reflect on which type of dissemination strategy you might use to communicate EBP.
Post at least two dissemination strategies you would be most inclined to use and explain why. Explain which dissemination strategies you would be least inclined to use and explain why. Identify at least two barriers you might encounter when using the dissemination strategies you are most inclined to use. Be specific and provide examples. Explain how you might overcome the barriers you identified.

EVIDENCE BASE IN DESIGN
When politics and medical science intersect, there can be much debate. Sometimes anecdotes or hearsay are misused as evidence to support a particular point. Despite these and other challenges, however, evidence-based approaches are increasingly used to inform health policy decision-making regarding causes of disease, intervention strategies, and issues impacting society. One example is the introduction of childhood vaccinations and the use of evidence-based arguments surrounding their safety.
In this Discussion, you will identify a recently proposed health policy and share your analysis of the evidence in support of this policy.
