Describe how you developed a PICO(T) question focused on your chosen clinical issue of interest.

Assignment: Evidence-Based Project, Part 3: Advanced Levels of Clinical Inquiry and Systematic Reviews Your quest to purchase a new car begins with an identification of the factors important to you. As you conduct a search of cars that rate high on those factors, you collect evidence and try to understand the extent of that evidence. A report that suggests a certain make and model of automobile has high mileage is encouraging. But who produced that report? How valid is it? How was the data collected, and what was the sample size? In this Assignment, you will delve deeper into clinical inquiry by closely examining your PICO(T) question. You also begin to analyze the evidence you have collected. To Prepare: Review the Resources and identify a clinical issue of interest that can form the basis of a clinical inquiry. Develop a PICO(T) question to address the clinical issue of interest for the Assignment. Use the key words from the PICO(T) question you developed and search at least four different databases in the Walden Library. Identify at least four relevant systematic reviews or other filtered high-level evidence, which includes meta-analyses, critically-appraised topics (evidence syntheses), critically-appraised individual articles (article synopses). The evidence will not necessarily address all the elements of your PICO(T) question, so select the most important concepts to search and find the best evidence available. Reflect on the process of creating a PICO(T) question and searching for peer-reviewed research. The Assignment (Evidence-Based Project) Part 3: Advanced Levels of Clinical Inquiry and Systematic Reviews Create a 6- to 7-slide PowerPoint presentation in which you do the following: Identify and briefly describe your chosen clinical issue of interest. Describe how you developed a PICO(T) question focused on your chosen clinical issue of interest. Identify the four research databases that you used to conduct your search for the peer-reviewed articles you selected. Provide APA citations of the four peer-reviewed articles you selected. Describe the levels of evidence in each of the four peer-reviewed articles you selected, including an explanation of the strengths of using systematic reviews for clinical research. Be specific and provide examples. By Day 7 of Week 5 Submit Part 3 of your Evidence-Based Project.

Describe the benefits and challenges of implementing standardized nursing terminologies in nursing practice.

Assignment: The Impact of Standardized Nursing Terminology Among the Resources in this module is the Rutherford (2008) article Standardized Nursing Language: What Does It Mean for Nursing Practice? In this article, the author recounts a visit to a local hospital to view the recent implementation of a new coding system.

Based on your findings in the literature, what did you discover that will help you address your practice problem?

Practice Problem Evidence based practice is essential to effective social work practice. For this assignment, you are required to (a) identify a current practice problem relevant in your current agency (i.e., working with resistant clients, engaging clients when they don’t talk much, having negative perceptions about your client, counter transference, etc.), (b) after identifying your practice problem, conduct an extensive literature search as it relates to your practice problem that provides you with a complete understanding of the practice problem. Based on your findings in the literature, what did you discover that will help you address your practice problem? How might your research guide your work in your field agency? After reviewing the literature/research and comparing it to the practice problem, the student is expected to do the following: By Day 7 Submit a reflection paper that: Briefly discusses the literature Briefly identifies the practice problem Briefly explains how the literature will be used to address the practice problem while engaging in the agency.

Discuss the limitations the article identified with the sample and how those limitations affect the reliability or credibility.

Research Design and Sampling Using the empirical research article that your instructor approved in the Week 5 assignment, ask yourself: “Is this a quantitative research article or a qualitative research article?” Remember, in quantitative research, the emphasis is on measuring social phenomenon because it is assumed that everything can be observed, measured, and quantified. On the other hand, in qualitative research, it is assumed that social phenomenon cannot be easily reduced and broken down into concepts that can be measured and quantified. Instead, there may be different meanings to phenomenon and experiences. Often in qualitative research, researchers use interviews, focus groups and observations to gather data and then report their findings using words and quotations. Consider how these different methods affect the sampling design and recruitment strategy, and ask yourself how the recruitment of research participants will affect the findings. For this Assignment, submit a 3-4 page paper. Complete the following: Read your selected empirical research article, and identify whether the study is a quantitative or qualitative study. Justify the reasons why you believe it is a quantitative or qualitative study. (Your instructor will indicate to you if you are correct in identifying the research design. This will point you to whether you will use the “Quantitative Article and Review Critique” or the “Qualitative Article and Review Critique” guidelines for the final assignment in week 10.) Using the empirical research article, focus on the sampling method in the study and begin to evaluate the sampling method by answering the following: Describe the sampling methods in your own words (paraphrase, do not quote from the article). Describe the generalizability or the transferability of the research finding based on the sampling method. Discuss the limitations the article identified with the sample and how those limitations affect the reliability or credibility. Explain one recommendation you would make to improve the sampling plan of the study that would address these limitations in future research.

Consider how the qualitative study contributes to social work practice and how this type of knowledge would fit into building evidence-based practice.

Relationship Between Qualitative Analysis and Evidence-Based Practice Evidence-based practice is integral to social work, as it often informs best practices. Competent social workers understand this connection in general and the ways it benefits clients in particular. For this Assignment, consider your informed opinion on the relationship between qualitative analysis and evidence-based practice. By Day 7 Submit a paper that addresses the following: Choose two qualitative research studies from this week’s resources and analyze the relationship between qualitative analysis and evidence-based practice. Consider how the qualitative study contributes to social work practice and how this type of knowledge would fit into building evidence-based practice.

Identify three to five personal values or characteristics that you believe are critical components of a good leader, such as honesty, compassion, or fairness.

Journaling provides a valuable tool for recording, reflecting on, and reviewing your learning. This approach provides an opportunity for you to “connect the dots” and observe the relationships between and among activities, interactions, and outcomes. Unlike a personal journal of thoughts and feelings, this leadership journal is a record of your activities, assessments, and learning related to this academic experience. Journal entries should include a record of the number of hours spent with your nurse leader each week. Write a journal on the subject of example, including the following: Provide observations and thoughts on the activities in your practicum setting during Topics 11-12. Identify three to five personal values or characteristics that you believe are critical components of a good leader, such as honesty, compassion, or fairness. How do you express those values in your professional life? How have you prepared those who will be affected by your project for its implementation? Reflect on at least two things you learned from the “Servant Leadership – Issue of Example” video. Use the “Leadership Journal Template” to complete this assignment.This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion. You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite.
