Children and grief

In this course, you will be complete a 2-part assignment in which you conduct research about a population of focus, develop a PICOT statement, and write a Literature Review. The PICOT statement and Literature Review you write in this course can be used for your evidence-based practice project in the next course so be sure to select an issue you want to continue working on in your next course.

PICOT (Population/Problem, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome, and Time to achieve the outcome) is a method that helps clarify the qualities needed to create a good question out of a practice issue or problem affecting the population of focus. Additionally, the information derived from a good PICOT makes it easier to perform a literature search in order to find translational research sources that can be used to address the clinical problem.

Use a national, state or local population health care database to research indicators of disparity. Choose a mortality/morbidity indicator to identify a clinical problem or issue that you want to explore pertaining to a population of focus. Use this indicator to begin to formulate a PICOT and conduct research on the population.

Write a 750-1,000-word paper that analyzes your research and focuses on the population you have chosen. Describe the population’s demographics and health concerns, and explain how nursing science, health determinants, and epidemiologic, genomic, and genetic data may impact population health management for the selected population. Provide an overview of a potential solution for solving the health issue related to your population and the intended PICOT statement. Describe how the solution incorporates health policies and goals that support health care equity for the population of focus.

You are required to cite three to five sources to complete this assignment. Sources must be published within the last 5 years and appropriate for the assignment criteria and nursing content.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite. Refer to the LopesWrite Technical Support articles for assistance.

Purpose

The purpose of the assignment is to guide students in identifying behaviors and interactions that commonly occur during the health history portion of a well-child exam. In doing so, students can develop strategies to improve anticipatory guidance and health education by using effective, non-biased, and non-judgmental communication.

Activity Learning Outcomes

Through this assignment, the student will demonstrate the ability to:

Synthesize information in which addresses child health promotion,  developmental surveillance, observation of parent-child interaction,  anticipatory guidance, social determinants of health, and/or cultural competence.

1. As you view the video, observe the parent-child and the parent-provider interactions. Pay particular attention to the parent’s responses to the provider’s questions making note of inappropriate and appropriate responses.
    
2. Choose five (5) topics from the following categories to complete the assignment: 
   • Cognitive Developmental Milestones
   • Physical Developmental Milestones
   • Social-Emotional Developmental Milestones
   • Safety
   • Alcohol/Substance Use
   • Environmental Health Risks
   • Temper Tantrums and Discipline
   • Sleep Routines
   • Car Seat Safety
   • Healthy Teeth
3. You will develop and complete a table for each one of the five (5)  categories using the example below as a guide. (Note: There are at least  10 categories addressed in the video, you must choose five (5) and create a separate table for each one).
4. For each of the tables, complete each section: 
   1. Issue: Category name
   2. Negative interaction/behavior: What did you see or hear that was inappropriate? 
   3. Positive interaction/behavior: What did you see that was appropriate? 
   4. Guidelines/recommendation: What does the research recommend? 
   5. Scholarly reference: Must be in APA format within the table. 
   6. Professional/Ethical Communication: How will provide non-judgmental and non-bias education regarding the issue identified? Needs to be at least 3 sentences. Helpful Hints: Acknowledge how they feel, state the facts, and provide education or re-frame the approach.
5. Scholarly references should be peer-reviewed, preferably a Clinical  Practice Guideline (CPG), intended for providers (MDs, NPs) and no more than 5 years old (unless it is a clinical practice guideline’s most recent update).

Preparing the Paper

1. The table provided below is an example only. It cannot be used to satisfy the requirements for any part of the assignment.
2. You may format your tables according to your preference, but APA format is required for the reference column.

Recommendation   Letter

TEACHER VERY STRICT PLEASE FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS 

During this course, you will learn the components of a research study. Each week you will learn components of the research process through your readings and application of the knowledge gained to published research articles. At the end of the course, you will complete a review of a nursing research article utilizing all of the components of the research process.

Using the Week 2 research template, identify the research components, listed on the template, as you begin to examine research studies. Review your two assigned articles and address each of the following criteria:

• Identify and describe
  • The problem
  • Purpose
  • Hypothesis or research questions of each study.
• Discuss the significance of the research to nursing practice.
• Identify two details to support the research as qualitative or quantitative.
• NOTE: If a component is not addressed, the student receives a zero for that component.
