Develop a 35 page scholarly paper in which you explain the diagnosis you researched for Assessment 1, and then apply the steps of an EBP model to your search for evidence to address your diagnosis issue. Introduction: The goal of using evidence-based research findings is to enhance safety and quality of patient care and ensure optimal outcomes are achieved. It is not uncommon to hear a nurse say, “why change it as weve always done it this way.” However, this is no longer acceptable in today’s practice environment. The profession of nursing has evolved, and the expectation is that the professional nurse has a scientific foundation to support the care that is provided. As the profession of nursing continues to evolve and engage in healthcare transformation, baccalaureate-prepared nurses are expanding, taking on leadership roles that include incorporating EBPs. To be able to do this, the nurse needs to understand the criteria that make a resource credible, as this is crucial when deciding if the research is valid and reliable for implementation into healthcare settings. The nurse will need to incorporate the use of EBP models. EBP models are designed to assist the nurse in developing a plan to gather evidence to answer a practice problem or question. It is a systematic approach to direct the user to incorporate scholarly findings into current practice. These EBP models lead the nurse through the decision-making process of evaluating the literature to determine the best practice evidence for the practice issue or question. Prep: Review all resources for this assessment, as well as the scoring guide for details of how this assessment will be graded. You will use the specific diagnosis or health issue you selected for Assessment 1. You can refer to the overview of common EBP models in the Evidence-Based Practice Models media for help in choosing the most appropriate EBP model for your issue. (I will upload) Complete the following: * Consider your diagnosis from Assessment 1. * Explain an issue associated with this diagnosis that could benefit from an EBP approach. * Choose the EBP model you wish to implement. * Describe each step of the EBP model of your choice. * Apply the steps of the model to your search for evidence for your diagnosis issue, and describe how you applied them. * Locate at least three separate resources of evidence to assist with your diagnosis issue. * Analyze the credibility and relevance of each resource as it relates to your diagnosis. This is a paper and should be 35 pages, not including the title page or reference page. The paper must be in APA format. Scoring guide: By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and scoring guide criteria: * Competency 2: Analyze the relevance and potential effectiveness of evidence when making a decision. * Analyze the credibility and relevance of each resource as it relates to a diagnosis. * Competency 3: Apply an evidence-based practice model to address a practice issue. * Explain an issue associated with a chosen diagnosis that could benefit from an EBP approach. * Describe each step of a chosen EBP model. * Describe how the steps of a chosen EPB model were applied to search for evidence for a diagnosis issue. * Competency 5: Apply professional, scholarly communication strategies to lead practice changes based on evidence. * Organize content so ideas flow logically with smooth transitions; contains few errors in grammar/punctuation, word choice, and spelling. * Apply APA formatting to in-text citations and references, exhibiting adherence to most aspects of APA format.

please type a short response to VM so I can record it.

my nursing class is – NURS 303 – Caring for Diverse Populations in their Communities.

I need discussn post about this case study:

During the student nurses rotation to a community health agency, there is extensive discussion about how to implement the Affordable Care Act in the community. The nurses are having a lot of difficulty understanding how healthcare politics and policy are developed when it appears that not all public health stakeholders are adequately being considered.

1. The nature of the U.S. healthcare system is unique. The group of community health nurses notes that the system has independent and collaborative powers at both the federal and state levels. What are some key facts that the community health nurses need to consider about this system?

References must be not older than 5 years and must be scholarly

Introduction: Evidence-based practice (EBP) integrates the best evidence available to guide optimal nursing care, with a goal to enhance safety and quality. EBP is crucial to nursing practice because it incorporates the best evidence from current literature, along with the expertise of the practicing nurse. The concern for quality care that flows from EBP generates a desired outcome. Without these factors, a nurse cannot be an effective leader. It is important to lead not only from this position but from knowledge and expertise. To gain the knowledge, you require a good understanding of how to search for scholarly resources, as well as make decisions regarding the content of the scholarly resources. Instructions: Write a 2-page analysis of a scholarly research article, demonstrating your ability to locate credible, useful evidence related to a diagnosis of interest selected from the Sentinel U simulation on Patient Management & Delegation. There are 10 patients, each with a different medical diagnosis. Select one patient with a diagnosis of interest to you. Once you have chosen your diagnosis of interest from the Sentinel U simulation, complete the following: * Use a credible search engine to locate a research article on your topic. * Review the article for the following criteria: * Type of study (quantitative or qualitative, the level on the pyramid of evidence, methodology). * Credibility factors. * Importance of content to selected diagnosis. * The ability to apply the content in your current workplace or patient population. * Take a screenshot of the abstract and paste it into a Word document (see the Example of Screenshot [PDF] document).

his assignment is about learning more about how technology, like health apps and websites, is changing the healthcare arena. We want to explore how these tools affect how healthcare is provided to people and how we as nurses can encourage self-care from patients and consumers utilizing e-health. Create a PowerPoint video talking about these topics.

Slide 1: Introduction to E-health

• Identify the basic concepts of e-health.

Slide 2: Integration of E-health with Precision Medicine

• Summarize the integration of e-health with precision health, which tailors to disease prevention and promotion of health to patients and consumers of health.

Slide 3: Consumer Health Informatics

• Define consumer health informatics and its role in engaging and empowering patients toward self-care with an example from your nursing practice or experience.

Slide 4: E-health Applications in Disease Management

• Share an example of e-health and supporting disease management for patients with chronic conditions.

Slide 5: Importance of Personal Health Records (PHRs)

• Share an example of using a PHRs either as a patient yourself or assisting patients/clients to retrieve, store, manage, and/or share health information.
• What is an innovative strategy to improve digital health equity using wearables?

Slide 6: Future Trends and Challenges

• Describe one future trend integrating e-health and consumer health informatics into healthcare delivery that has the potential to improve patient care outcomes.

Slide 7: References

encompasses the use of telecommunications platforms, mobile (and ubiquitous) hardware and software, and advanced information systems to support and facilitate healthcare delivery and education. E-health has triggered a fundamental redesign of healthcare processes, integrating electronic communication at all levels and affecting all stakeholders. E-health also supports patient engagement and even patient empowermentthe transition from a passive role (where the patient is the recipient of care services) to an active role (where the patient is involved in and perhaps even leads the decision-making process). Feste and Anderson (1995) emphasize that the patient empowerment model introduces “self-awareness, personal responsibility, informed choices and quality of life.” Precision medicinea new healthcare paradigm that uses vast amounts of data from multiple data sources to identify and classify disease processes (McGrath and Ghersi 2016)is expected to create a new era of personalized medicine in which individuals biological, physiological, behavioral, social, and environmental parameters, as well as their values and preferences, will inform tailored disease prevention and treatment. In this context, e-health can play a significant role in collecting information about individual patients needs and preferences and monitoring their physiological and behavioral parameters, wherever they may be.

Learning Resources from class:

E-health bridges the clinical and nonclinical sectors and includes both individual- and population healthoriented tools. It encompasses different platforms, including telehealth applications that can span geographic distances (e.g., videoconferencing), web portals and mobile apps, online support groups, social media, wearable devices, and passive monitoring sensors. In addition, e-health delivers healthcare information, diagnoses, treatment, and care in a nonlinear manner where traditional hierarchies are obsolete and patients may enter the system at an infinite number of points, each with his or her own pattern and frequency of utilization. Healthcare lawyers are challenged “to determine whether they are dealing with the sale of a product or the supply of a service [and] whether to apply strict products liability or professional negligence” (Terry 2000).

Advances in telecommunication technologies and data networks have introduced innovative ways to enhance communication between health professionals and patients. The result has been a shift in focus for informatics researchers and system designers, who had primarily aimed to design information technology (IT) applications that met the needs of healthcare providers and institutions by using data models that included episodic patient encounters as one group of healthcare-related transactions. The emerging model instead centers on the life course of individual patients and aims to ensure continuity of care and the inclusion of other stakeholders, such as family members, in the decision-making process. New technologies and informatics approaches call for the development of informatics tools that support patients and their families as active consumers in the healthcare delivery system. This shift from institution-centered to patient-centered information systems requires new approaches to design and evaluation that examine and maximize the system’s effectiveness.

is the area of health systems informatics that focuses on the implementation and evaluation of system design to ensure direct interaction with the consumer, with or without the involvement of healthcare providers. It is a fast-growing subdomain of biomedical and health systems informatics that emphasizes the potential of informatics tools to engage and empower patients and equip them with the means to explore choices (Demiris 2016). This domain also emphasizes the value of informatics tools not only for those who become patients when they are diagnosed with a condition and find themselves interacting with the health system but for all health consumers who wish to engage in decision making about their well-being, disease prevention, and self-management. The applications and systems described in this chapter all belong to the domain of consumer health informatics and aim to support individual patients healthcare needs and preferences as well as those of their families.
