Essay Elements:

• One to three pages of scholarly writing in paragraph format, not counting the title page or reference page
• Brief introduction of the case
• Identification of the main diagnosis with supporting rationale
• Identification of at least two additional differential diagnoses with a brief rationale for why these were ruled out
• Diagnostic plan with supporting rationale or references

Select a clinical guideline of interest to you that is used in advance nursing practice within your specialty area. Write a 1,000-1,250-word paper evaluating the clinical guideline you selected. Utilize the resources topic Resources to complete this assignment. Describe the clinical guideline and explain why you selected it for your specialty area. Clinical guidelines are created through peer-reviewed research and disseminated through nursing scholarship. How does this process encourage the application of ethical principles in practice? Evaluate the clinical guideline you selected. Discuss the different types of peer-reviewed research that support and inform practice change in the clinical guideline. Explain how evidence-based research applies a logical and defendable approach when making decisions in nursing practice. What opportunities for innovation and changes in practice does the clinical guideline address? Within the chosen clinical guideline, explain how evidence supports effective practice change by evaluating outcomes. What is the impact on new practices? As a future advanced registered nurse, discuss how you can become a socially responsible leader who effectively applies evidence into practice to improve outcomes. Review your personal philosophy of practice and approach to patient care. Consider whether you need to amend your statement now that you have more knowledge of the expectations of the advanced registered nurse. In one or two sentences, restate your personal philosophy of practice and approach to patient care and explain how this statement will help guide you as a nursing leader.

In nursing education, classroom testing plays a crucial role in assessing student comprehension, critical thinking skills, and clinical knowledge. The approach utilized for testing can greatly impact the student’s learning experiences and outcomes.

How can we ensure that exam content reflects real-world nursing scenarios and challenges? Discuss the importance of providing constructive feedback to students following exams. How can educators utilize exam results to identify areas of improvement and tailor support to individual student needs?

Please read these instructions carefully.

Begin by summarizing your ethics situation in one paragraph, making reference to challenging ethics-related experiences (e.g. moral distress, ethical dilemma, moral uncertainty, etc…) and ethics keywords found in the Armstrong Clinical Ethics Coding System. Ethics situations descriptions of more than one paragraph will not be accepted. This may mean that you will need to revisit your first Ethics SBAR submission and parse apart what is more suitable for your “ethics situation” and what is more suitable for the “background” section of your Ethics SBAR. Please do not submit the additional background information in this assignment, but consider what is essential to include in your final paper.

Then, write a summary of your key analysis points following these guidelines:, but co

In bullet form: 1) identify, 2) define and 3) describe (in less than 2 sentences) how the following are applicable to your case:

A. At least two relevant principles, provisions, standards, or directives from the American Nurses Association (ANA) Code of Ethics (2015), with proper citations.

B. At least two relevant principles, provisions, standards or directives from the Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services (ERDs) (2018), with proper citations.

C. A relevant selection (quote or idea) from at least one additional source from your own research, with proper citations.

D. Other principles, values, promises, legislation or virtues not already identified in the above resources, with proper citations, that are essential or especially useful to your ethical analysis. (You may find the Ethics Workup SBAR for Students under the Ethics SBAR folder useful for this – to help you think through it.)

A sample structure might look something like this:

Ethics Situation – with Armstrong Clinical Ethics Coding System (ACECS) (2013) utilized

ANA Code of Ethics

ANA Code of Ethics Provision 1

(here, you’d introduce this provision, state what the provision says, possibly quote relevant text from the “descriptive statement” of that provision from the Code of Ethics,

then describe how it’s applicable to your case)

ANA Code of Ethics Provision 6

(repeat instructions above)

ERD

ERD No. 3 (here, you’d introduce this Directive, quote what the Directive says, then describe how it’s applicable to your case) Follow APA format with capitalization, and proper acronym usage so that the reader does not have to guess what it stands for

ERD No. 57 (repeat)

Additional Source from a Source that is not part of assigned readings or text for the course

(identify, define and describe how that source is applicable to your case)

Other Principles, Promises, Values, Legislation

(for each that you identify, again identify, define, describe how it is applicable to your case)

Note that when you submit your actual Ethics SBAR paper, you will not be using bullet form. You will be writing in prose.

Use APA format and layout in this submission. Be sure to use APA style for your citations and reference list, too.

Remember: Once you introduce a concept or quote, you should define it and describe how it is applicable to your case. If one were to remove the word you are defining itself (e.g. beneficence), your description should be specific enough that we could identify the concept you are describing.

A fundamental step in writing a health policy brief is seeing the big picture. Assume that a legislator or a person of influence has asked you to provide them with objective information to help them decide on how to vote on a bill. Here are some critical questions that you need to ask:

• What is the issue/legislation under consideration?
• What is the intent of the legislation or proposed legislation?
• What is the impact of the legislation on cost/quality of care/ and access to care?
• What are some potential unintended consequences of the legislation?
• Who is likely to support or oppose the bill?
• What evidence exists to strengthen your arguments?
• What other information does the legislator need to make an informed decision?

Instructions:

• This
• assignment will assist you in framing a personal Health Care Policy agenda that can inform the development of your final assignment.
• It is strongly recommended that you identify a specific legislative health policy topic of interest that you would like to focus on for the remainder of the course and one that will build towards your final interview paper with an elected official.
• Read the assignment directions carefully.
• This is not a paper but a one pager brief. There will be a 10 pt deduction if submitted as a paper!!! Be sure to review examples.
