Analyzing Social Problems

Instructions:

In this week’s learning module, we differentiated individuals from social problems. In this discussion, we will sharpen our understanding of these concepts while developing skills to analyze current events. There are 2 components to this discussion that you must complete for full credit.

First, apply these concepts to the real world. Please choose 1 individual problem and 1 social problem related to the technological advancement you discussed in Unit 1. Drawing insights from the Unit 2 topics, please answer the following questions:

  • What 2 problems did you choose?
  • What makes the first topic an individual problem?
  • What makes the second topic a social problem?

Second, Describe the strategies you used to define, describe, and analyze these problems. Drawing insights from the Unit 2 topics, please answer the following questions:

  • What databases did you search for sources used to answer questions from the previous section?
  • What key terms did you use to select a list of sources?
  • What criteria did you use to select articles from the list you collected?
  • What are the pros/cons of each of your strategic decisions?

The Library of Congress (Links to an external site.) has established an index of social issues in the United States. Please reach out to the instructor with any questions about this assignment.

Please be sure to validate your opinions and ideas with citations and references in APA format.

This topic is valued at 40 points. Please review post and response expectations. Please review the rubric to ensure that your response meets the criteria (Read Me First Section of the Course).

Evidence Based Nursing

/in /by

Your Chief Nurse Executive (CNE) recognizes you are pursuing your BSN and has asked you to be a member of the nursing evidence-based practice (NEBP) committee. She has advised the members that the purpose is to conduct nursing research studies involving clinical practice problems. Increasing nurses’ awareness of quality and safety concerns will help develop an attitude of inquiry and asking questions. Baccalaureate nurses “collaborate in problem identification, participate in the process of search, retrieval, and documentation of evidence, and integrate evidence using credible databases and internet resources.

The CNE has advised all members of the following areas of quality and safety clinical practice that each committee member needs to consider and choose only one as a priority area for conducting a research study. Sources of research problems come from nursing clinical practice

Healthcare Associated Infections (HAIs).
Examples include:

  • Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infections (CLABSI)
  • Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infections (CAUTI)
  • Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP)
  • Surgical Site Infections (SSI)
  • Sepsis (Screening or Prevention)
  • Discharge Teaching/Coaching
  • Transitions of Care/Level of Care
  • Pressure Ulcers
  • Skin Integrity

Your CNE has requested that you select ONLY one topic area and complete the PPE Worksheet using only one topic area. The committee will collaborate and decide as a team which nursing clinical problem area will be the priority focus of their next research study. Thank you for your valuable contributions to this important NEBP committee.
