Proposing Change

Proposing Change

Over the past few weeks my group and I have identified a topic, retrieved, and reviewed relevant peer-reviewed literature, and drafted and revised our project proposal. Our project proposal is on the “Effectiveness of Proning Patients Who are Suspected to or Have COVID-19.” Throughout this time, I have analyzed different discoveries about my topic and most of the information I retrieved comes back to how impactful proning patients with COVID-19 is. Proning patients isn’t a simple turn them onto their…

Team projects can always be a challenge, but at the same time they can turn out to be very rewarding. Working in large groups poses a challenge because that’s a lot of people to correlate schedules with, communicate with, and each person has their own brilliant ideas. That’s where the rewarding factor comes in; each team member has so much to offer to the team. I anticipate this team dissemination project, from topic proposal to dissemination of the final project…

Appraisal and synthesis

Appraisal and synthesis

I discovered that it is much more common now that patient’s aren’t experiencing quality care because healthcare is stretched thin. Nurses are working long shifts, multiple days a week, and trying to balance complicated cases and up to four patients. Some of those patients require more attention than others, therefore they’re not all receiving the same amount of care if the hospitals were adequately staffed or better yet the nurse-to-patient ratio was appropriate. My appraisal and synthesis aided in my…

From inquiry through discovery (EBP steps 0-2)

From inquiry through discovery (EBP steps 0-2)

Starting off, my partner and I chose a topic, developed a PICOT question, and found some peer-reviewed scholarly articles. We thought our PICOT was going to find us a lot of articles at first, but to be honest it didn’t. So we had to change our PICOT question slightly. This was our original PICOT: What is the effect of both a properly staffed hospital floor and an understaffed hospital floor on quality patient care? Our new PICOT question is: In…

Before this paper fully comes together, I have to anticipate how it will go. I anticipate that this team project, from topic choice to actually writing the final paper will go really well. I’m confident in my partner and I. We are both organized and hard workers. This paper will be accomplished with team-work, good time management, and communication. The communication plan that my partner and I have is to be open with each other and first find out each…
