Review some nursing journals that deal primarily with education, research, or administration, such as the Journal of Nursing Education, Nursing Research, or the Journal of Nursing Administration, and discuss the current topics emphasized in these journals.

This is a Collaborative Learning Community (CLC) assignment.

An important role of nursing is to provide health promotion and disease prevention. Review the 2020 Topics and Objectives on the Healthy People website. Choose a topic of interest that you would like to address, in conjunction with a population at-risk for the associated topic. Submit the topic and associated group to your instructor for approval.

Topic: STROKE Powerpoint- 3 slides on #1 and 3 slides on #2

Create a 6 slide PowerPoint presentation for your topic and focus group. Include speaker notes and citations for each slide, and create a slide at the end for References.

Address the following: ( STROKE)

1. Describe the approved topic and associated population your group has selected. Discuss how this topic adversely affects the population. How does health disparity affect this population?
2. Explain evidence-based approaches that can optimize health for this population. How do these approaches minimize health disparity among affected populationsCite at least three peer-reviewed or scholarly sources to complete this assignment. Sources should be published within the last 5 years and appropriate for the assignment criteria and public health content.

Refer to the resource, “Creating Effective PowerPoint Presentations,” located in the Student Success Center, for additional guidance on completing this assignment in the appropriate style.

Select two clients you observed or counseled this week during a group therapy session. Note: The two clients you select must have attended the same group session.

TWO CLINETS

FIRST CLIENT:   GENERALIZED ANXIETY DISORDER

SECOND CLIENT: MAJOR DEPRESSIVE DISORDER

Then, in your Practicum Journal, address the following:

• Describe each client (without violating HIPAA regulations), and identify any pertinent history or medical information, including prescribed medications.
• Using the DSM-5, explain and justify your diagnosis for each client.
• Explain whether cognitive behavioral therapy would be effective with this group. Include expected outcomes based on this therapeutic approach.
• Explain any legal and/or ethical implications related to counseling each client.
• Support your approach with evidence-based literature.

Propose a future development that affects value-based healthcare and address the following.

• What would you create, and why? What problem does this innovation solve?
• How does this innovation impact value-based healthcare?
• How will it enhance your leadership capacity?
• As a leader, explain one barrier you may have in implementing the innovation and how you could use the 5-Stage Innovation-Decision Process to overcome that barrier.

List 8  PROGRESS NOTES in SOAP format of the   Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Role  with  Child and Adolescents  . Describe the   activities you completed during this   time   period with patients.

NOTE: ( The progress notes has to be related with what the        Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner do with Child and        adolescents with different psychiatric conditions). 8 different    notes     with different patients scenarios. 

Identify a quality improvement opportunity in your organization or practice. In a 1,250-1,500 word paper, describe the problem or issue and propose a quality improvement initiative based on evidence-based practice. Apply “The Road to Evidence-Based Practice” process, illustrated in Chapter 4 of your textbook, to create your proposal.

Include the following:

1. Provide an overview of the problem and the setting in which the problem or issue occurs.
2. Explain why a quality improvement initiative is needed in this area and the expected outcome.
3. Discuss how the results of previous research demonstrate support for the quality improvement initiative and its projected outcomes. Include a minimum of three peer-reviewed sources published within the last 5 years, not included in the course materials or textbook, that establish evidence in support of the quality improvement proposed.
4. Discuss steps necessary to implement the quality improvement initiative. Provide evidence and rationale to support your answer.
5. Explain how the quality improvement initiative will be evaluated to determine whether there was improvement.
6. Support your explanation by identifying the variables, hypothesis test, and statistical test that you would need to prove that the quality improvement initiative succeeded.

Nurses conducting assessments of the ears, nose, and throat must be able to identify the small differences between life-threatening conditions and benign ones. For instance, if a patient with a sore throat and a runny nose also has inflamed lymph nodes, the inflammation is probably due to the pathogen causing the sore throat rather than a case of throat cancer. With this knowledge and a sufficient patient health history, a nurse would not need to escalate the assessment to a biopsy or an MRI of the lymph nodes but would probably perform a simple strep test.

In this Case Study Assignment, you consider case studies of abnormal findings from patients in a clinical setting. You determine what history should be collected from the patients, what physical exams and diagnostic tests should be conducted, and formulate a differential diagnosis with several possible conditions.

• Also, your Case Study Assignment should be in the Episodic/Focused SOAP Note format rather than the traditional narrative style format. Refer to Chapter 2 of the Sullivan text and the Episodic/Focused SOAP Template in the Week 5 Learning Resources for guidance. Remember that all Episodic/Focused SOAP Notes have specific data included in every patient case.

The Assignment

Use the Episodic/Focused SOAP Template and create an episodic/focused note about the patient in the case study to which you were assigned using the episodic/focused note template provided in the Week 5 resources. Provide evidence from the literature to support diagnostic tests that would be appropriate for each case. List five different possible conditions for the patient’s differential diagnosis and justify why you selected each.

4- References should be within 4 years

5- I am in acute care nurse practitioner program.

6- The response to the DQ is expected to be a minimum of 300 words. A minimum of two peer reviewed/ scholarly  resources are expected. These need to be appropriate for a clinical professional to guide decisions about patient care. If a textbook is used for one of these responses, the other needs to be journal or professional-level website. The references need to be correctly formatted, as do the citations for those references.  “ Question words” don’t count towards 300 minimum count”

1-List the steps or the components in the change model or theory.
2-Does the model or theory contain a component for appraising the evidence?
3-Does the model or theory contain a component for networking with the stakeholders during all phases of practice change?
4-Does the model contain components for identifying barriers and addressing barriers to implementation? 

Please answer these questions separated and use at least 3 sources no later than 5 years.

 This is final discussion of the capstone project….i can attach all information of project so far

it needs to be specific to the project -300 to 350 words-cite references from resources in last 5 years

The final step is to develop the plan discussing the steps clearly and succinctly. The plan must be evidence based .

By Day 4

Post an explanation of how you could apply key interventions supported by the scholarly research evidence to potentially help resolve the issue in measurable ways. Continue to collaborate with the selected individuals in your practice environment as needed in the development of the Practice Experience Project, and share this information with your group.
