General Instructions
Over the next eight weeks, you will learn more about integrating evidence into practice by designing an evidence-based practice project. This project is comprised of related assignments. This week, you will identify a client-focused clinical problem for which a nurse practitioner (NP) could advocate for an evidence-based practice (EBP) change. You will conduct a literature review to determine what is currently known about the problem so that you will be able to develop a concise question for next weekâ€s assignment.
Include the following sections:
Application of Course Knowledge: Answer all questions/criteria with explanations and detail.
Identify a clinical problem for which an NP could advocate for an evidence-based change that is client-focused. Avoid topics that are related to full practice authority, staffing, or burnout. The problem should be centered around clients and the care nurse practitioners provide for the population.
Describe the scope and impact of the problem.
Discuss the role of the NP in addressing the problem.
Explain why the problem is of interest to you.
Integration of Evidence: Integrate relevant scholarly sources as defined by program expectationsLinks to an external site.:
Cite a scholarly source in the initial post.
Cite a scholarly source in one faculty response post.
Cite a scholarly source in one peer post.
Accurately analyze, synthesize, and/or apply principles from evidence with no more than one short quote (15 words or less) for the week.
Include a minimum of two different scholarly sources per week. Cite all references and provide references for all citations.
Engagement in Meaningful Dialogue: Engage peers and faculty by asking questions and offering new insights, applications, perspectives, information, or implications for practice.
Peer Response: Respond to at least one peer.
Faculty Response: Respond to at least one faculty post.
