making, differ between the BSN‐prepared nurse and the ADN nurse.
Discuss the significance of applying evidence‐based practice to nursing care and explain how
the academic preparation of the RN‐BSN nurse supports its application.
Discuss how nurses today communicate and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams and how
this supports safer and more effective patient outcomes.

How can a positive change be made in regards to the burnout problem? Would a class for
healthcare providers on burnout help? How about a meditation program? What about a
counseling program for burned out providers? Should working hours be limited? Should
providers be required to take time off after experiencing trauma at work? These are just a few
ideas off the top of my head… not that any of them is considered a solution, but just to get you
thinking.
Once you decide on an intervention (Meditation, Yoga, Kickboxing, Retris, Resilience Classes)
look into how much you think such a program would cost, how it could be funded if there is a
cost, and how it would be rolled out
