What is the best practice for urine specimen collection in older women in emergency departments to decrease the incidence of contaminated urine culture results

/0 Comments/in , /by

Paper details:

Choose a problem within your current area of nursing practice; research the problem through completing a literature review; some examples of what previous students identified are listed below. Use PICO to stage your question. Do minority nursing students, who have access to early intervention/retention programs, have a higher rate of academic success over students who are not offered any such program? In the second stage of labor, do women and infants benefit more from laboring down vs direct pushing once full dilation is achieved? In patients with lower extremity ulcerations related to diabetes, will they have improved healing utilizing hyperbaric oxygen therapy with standard wound care versus patients receiving standard wound care alone? In patients with venous ulcers is there an alternative in treatments other than multi- layer compression wraps? What is the best practice for urine specimen collection in older women in emergency departments to decrease the incidence of contaminated urine culture results and therefore decrease the overtreatment of urinary tract infections? 5-7 pages not including cover page and reference page APA format 5 or more references including text books, articles, appropriate websites, etc.; articles should be within last 5 years and peer reviewed Headings to use in the Paper. You should include these and may include additional one’s if you choose. Introduction Description of Problem you identified Review of Literature PICO Question Qualitative or Quantitative: What would be better for your question and why Summary

Can reducing wait time in Ambulatory Care Clinics positively impact the psychodynamic status of the patient needing urgent care as opposed to shorter wait time in Private Practice and patient’s outcome within one year.

Evidence-Based Practice Proposal – Section B: Problem Description Write a paper of 500‐750 words (not including the title page and reference page) on your proposed problem description for your EBP project. The paper should address the following: 1. Describe the background of the problem. Tell the story of the issue and why it deserves attention. 2. Identify the stakeholders/change agents. Who, or what organizations, are concerned, may benefit from, or are affected by this proposal. List the interested parties, patients, students, agencies, Joint Commission, etc. 3. Use the feedback from the Topic 2 main forum post and refine your PICOT question. Make sure that the question fits with your graduate degree specialization. 4. State the purpose and project objectives in specific, realistic, and measurable terms. The objective should address what is to be gained. This is a restatement of the question, providing focus. Measurements need to be taken before and after the evidence‐based practice is introduced to identify the expected changes. 5. 5) Provide supportive rationale that the problem or issue is an important one for nursing to resolve using relevant professional literature sources. 6. Develop an initial reference list to assure that there is adequate literature to support your evidence‐based practice project. Follow the “Steps to an Efficient Search to Answer a Clinical Question” box in chapter 3 of the textbook. Use “NUR‐699 Search Method Example” to assist you. 7. 7) The majority of references should be research articles. However, national sources such as Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), Department of Health and Human Resources (HHS), or the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) and others may be used when you are gathering statistics to provide the rationale for the problem. 8. Once you get into the literature, you may find there is very little research to support your topic and you will have to start all over again. Remember, in order for this to be an evidence‐based project, you must have enough evidence to introduce this as a practice change. If you find that you do not have enough supporting evidence to change a practice, then further research would need to be conducted. Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines. NO ABSTRACT NEEDED. Search Method Example Search Method A comprehensive electronic search was completed using the following databases: Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews National Guideline Clearinghouse CINAHL Ovid Medline The search included English-only published articles between 1990 and 2005. Key words used in the search were: Pediatric asthma education Self-management Self-monitoring Grade school children Systematic reviews Randomized controlled trials Search results revealed 75 publications. The abstracts were screened and 10 studies were relevant to pediatric asthma education involving self-management, self-monitoring behaviors, self-efficacy, and educational programs with various interventions. These studies included three systematic reviews, five randomized control trials (RCT), one cohort descriptive study, and one qualitative study. Refer to Appendix A for a complete reference list.

Population– Ambulatory Care Clinics patient Intervention – Reducing waiting time in Ambulatory care clinics Comparison – Shorter wait time in Private Care Clinics Outcome – Creating positive impact on patients’ psychodynamic status

Leadership and Management in Nursing

 

Paper details:

Step 1 Review your unit’s and/or facility’s organizational chart. You have been promoted to nurse manager of your unit. You realize that to function effectively, you must have a better understanding of your organization’s structure and, specifically, the chain of command.

Find and analyze the organizational chart of the healthcare organization you are currently working for or for one that you have encountered in your nursing experience. Step 2 In a two-page (500-word) paper, address the following points: Give a brief description of the organization of the healthcare structure used in your facility. Describe the chain of command used in your organization and identify the people you report to and those who report to you.

Consider the following and discuss how the chain of command is used to implement change. Based on the organization chart, what leadership structure is used in the organization—hierarchical or flat? How does this affect implementing change? Does this organization use a shared governance model for nursing? When nurses have an idea for changing a process and they make a decision as a group, where do they go with their suggestions? (the director? the unit manager?) Explain why understanding this information is important to your success. Write your paper using APA format.

Paper attached needs to be re-written to show little to no similarity.

As the country focuses on the restructuring of the U.S. health care delivery system, nurses will continue to play an important role. It is expected that more and more nursing jobs will become available out in the community, and fewer will be available in acute care hospitals.

Write an informal presentation (500-700 words) to educate nurses about how the practice of nursing is expected to grow and change. Include the concepts of continuity or continuum of care, accountable care organizations (ACO), medical homes, and nurse-managed health clinics. Share your presentation with nurse colleagues on your unit or department and ask them to offer their impressions of the anticipated changes to health care delivery and the new role of nurses in hospital settings, communities, clinics, and medical homes.

In 800-1,000 words summarize the feedback shared by three nurse colleagues and discuss whether their impressions are consistent with what you have researched about health reform. A minimum of three scholarly references are required for this assignment. While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
