Integrated Presentation: Advancing Nursing Philosophy

(Integrated Presentation)

Question description

Bringing It All Together Powerpoint and Audio

This Assignment addresses this course outcome:

MN502-4: Develop a philosophy that supports advanced nursing practice reflecting the values, beliefs, and cultural competencies relative to nursing practice, science, and theory.

Now that you have spent the last 8 weeks discussing theory development and exploring models and philosophies that guide advance practice nursing, it is time for you to put it all together. In this Assignment, you will create a presentation using any form of presentation software (e.g., PowerPoint®, Prezi™, Movenote™, Powtoons™, Slidedog™, and so on). Your presentation should bring together the theory that best fits your concept of advance practice nursing, the model that you will use to translate this into practice, and your final philosophy of advance practice nursing related to your role after graduation.

Please remember that your presentation should contain slides that have bullet points. The bullets should number no more than four to six per slide. The bullet point is not written as a complete sentence. It contains key words. You, as the presenter will explain in depth what each bullet point means in the audio portion of the presentation. Slides may contain graphics, but should be uncluttered. Background and font colors should be of sufficient contrast to make reading them easy on the eyes. Attention to colors should be paid so that a person who is colorblind can easily read the presentation.(Integrated Presentation)

Assignment DetailsThe presentation should consist of a series of slides that include:

  • Title Slide: A title slide that identifies the title of the presentation and name of the student.
  • Introduction Slide: An introduction slide that includes brief information about you and your program track. The slide should also explain to the audience the purpose of the presentation.
  • Model Slides: The third and fourth slides will address your chosen model. The bullet points should consist of the specific characteristics of the model. You will need at least one citation that identifies where the model came from. Your audio will expound upon the model and what the characteristics mean. The fourth slide should include why you chose the model and how you will apply it in practice.
  • Theory Slides: The next three slides will focus on your chosen theory. The first slide should present your theory and why you chose it. The next slide would present the key concepts of the theory and how it has been used to date in past research no older than 5 years ago. The third slide will discuss how you will use this theory in practice as an advance practice nurse upon graduation.
  • Philosophy Slide: The next area will consist of one slide that presents your philosophy of advance practice nursing in the post-graduate role you will assume. The philosophy statement will consist of one to three sentences that distill the essence of what you believe advance practice nursing is and your conception of nursing as a profession. It is written in the first person and present tense. It is a personal statement of your beliefs about the profession of nursing. This should present guiding statements for your future practice in the advanced practice role.An example of a philosophy statement might read this way:Advanced practice nursing takes the art and science of nursing to a level of “other” and “self” interacting together to reach a state of optimal wellness guided with compassion and love for the culture of the “other.”
  • Graphical Slide: The next-to-last slide will be a graphical representation of how the model, theory, and your philosophy fit together.
  • Conclusion Slide: The last slide will be a conclusion that brings together everything you have presented. It is not a summary that just reiterates what you presented. It is a judgment about what you presented and bring the audience home, ending the presentation on a positive note about the future.

You will need supporting citations for your theory and model slides, and possibly for your philosophy, as appropriate. You will include the citations where appropriate and your very last slide will be a reference slide.

The total slide count should not exceed 15 slides. This does not include the reference slide(s) or the title slide.

Future Psychological Testing: Vulnerable Populations

(Future Psychological Testing)

Future psychological testing for vulnerable populations will likely prioritize cultural sensitivity, accessibility, and inclusivity. This entails developing assessments that account for diverse backgrounds, languages, and experiences to ensure accurate evaluations across populations. Technology will play a significant role, enabling remote testing options and tailored interventions based on individual needs. Emphasis will be placed on ethical considerations, such as informed consent, confidentiality, and minimizing harm, especially for those with limited capacity to advocate for themselves. Integration of emerging fields like neuroscience and artificial intelligence may enhance diagnostic accuracy and treatment planning. Additionally, there will be a shift towards holistic assessments, considering social determinants of health and systemic factors impacting mental well-being. Collaboration between psychologists, healthcare providers, policymakers, and community stakeholders will be crucial to address disparities and improve access to mental health services. Ultimately, future psychological testing for vulnerable populations aims to foster resilience, empower individuals, and promote equitable mental healthcare delivery.

PowerPoint

Select a special population of interest from the following list:

  1. Domestic violence victims
  2. Clients with questions about their sexual orientation
  3. Human trafficking victims
  4. Clients with suicidal ideation
  5. Clients who self-harm

Hypothesize the future of psychological testing for your selected population.

Create a 7-10-slide presentation about your population that includes the following:

  1. A description of the tests and assessments currently in use
  2. Changes to the tests and assessments you would like to see
  3. Explain any procedures related to reporting abuse, duty to warn, or victims’ rights
  4. Detailed speaker notes as if you are giving the presentation in person

While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

Week1/3 Virg: EBP Question Development: PICOT Framework

(EBP Question Development)

he first step of the EBP process is to develop a question from the nursing practice problem of interest.

Select a practice problem of interest to use as the focus of your research.

Start with the patient and identify the clinical problems or issues that arise from clinical care.

Following the PICOT format, write a PICOT statement in your selected practice problem area of interest, which is applicable to your proposed capstone project.

The PICOT statement will provide a framework for your capstone project (the project students must complete during their final course in the RN-BSN program of study).

Conduct a literature search to locate research articles focused on your selected practice problem of interest. This literature search should include both quantitative and qualitative peer-reviewed research articles to support your practice problem.

Select six peer-reviewed research articles which will be utilized through the next 5 weeks as reference sources. Be sure that some of the articles use qualitative research and that some use quantitative research. Create a reference list in which the six articles are listed. Beneath each reference include the article’s abstract. The completed assignment should have a title page and a reference list with abstracts.

Suggestions for locating qualitative and quantitative research articles from credible sources:

  1. Use a library database such as CINAHL Complete for your search.
  2. Using the advanced search page check the box beside “Research Article” in the “Limit Your Results” section.
  3. When setting up the search you can type your topic in the top box, then add quantitative or qualitative as a search term in one of the lower boxes. Research articles often are described as qualitative or quantitative.

To narrow/broaden your search, remove the words qualitative and quantitative and include words that narrow or broaden your main topic. For example: Diabetes and pediatric and dialysis. To determine what research design was used, review the abstract and the methods section of the article. The author will provide a description of data collection using qualitative or quantitative methods.

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.

Colonialism And Neutral Parties

/in , , /by

Topic: Colonialism and Neutral Parties

(Colonialism And Neutral Parties)

Question/Prompt: Choose one of the five prompts below on which to discuss.

 

  1. The Colonialist model is intent on proclaiming the superiority of theology over psychology (nearly to the exclusion of psychology, in some cases). What aspects of the relationship of theology and psychology can you affirm in this model, and what do you think is in need of critique?
  2. The Colonialist model ostensibly recognizes the value of psychology, but it does not typically result in deep engagement with the findings or methods of psychology. How might this be applied to a topic such as eating disorders or depression? What would be some of the advantages and disadvantages of this approach?
  3. Entwistle distinguishes between scriptural authority and theological interpretation. Do you agree? Why might this distinction be important? Support your view with an example.
  4. Why do people who adopt a Neutral Parties model think that we should keep theology out of psychology, and why do their critics contend that it is dangerous to keep theology out of psychology? Which is the stronger position? Use an example to support your view.
  5. The Neutral Parties model is intent on proclaiming the independence of psychology from any ideology, including Christian theology. What about the relationship of theology and psychology can you affirm in this model, and what do you think is in need of critique?

 

At least 500 words in response to the provided prompt. You must support your assertions with at least 3 citations in current APA format. You may use the course textbook Chp 10 Entwistle and Chp 2, 4, 6 Johnson and scholarly articles only and the Bible as sources.

Nursing Spiritual Needs: Cultural Sensitivity & Patient Advocacy

(Nursing Spiritual Needs)

Please Do A Comment Base In This Answers. Write At Least 140 Words In Each Answer, Take Reference From (2013-2018) If Is Possible, Academic References . SUSTANTIVE POST NEEDED

Comment 1

Spiritual needs are one of the essential needs among individuals. Throughout the life, the spiritual needs are an intrinsic need and remain as a primary element of holistic nursing care. Nurses face a great challenge of satisfying the spiritual needs of the patient. The holistic care addresses the spiritual needs, social, physical, economic and emotional needs of the patient (Nolan, 2015). The religious intervention involves treating the religious beliefs of the patients without prejudice, helping them practice their religion, giving them an opportunity to connect with God as well as expressing their beliefs and values and referring them to religious leaders and clerical.

According to me, the spiritual care is supporting and acknowledging a person religious beliefs. Respecting them and ensuring that their wishes are followed. It involves bringing glory to God. A practitioner may give spiritual care through praying with the patient, providing a word of encouragement, being present and listen to the patient, sharing from the scriptures, participating in the healing service and referring them to the religious leaders. I believe that the Holy Spirit guides the practitioners when making the challenging decisions. Reading the scriptures and praying makes the healthcare provider stronger as well as close to God and are able to make a decision based on God’s plan. The religious leaders are supposed to teach their followers concerning the spiritual care.

Comment 2

Spiritual worldview concept incorporates spirituality, religion and other philosophical and reference points, which make assumptions concerning the bigger context of human existence (Josephson, 2015). As a professional nurse, I try to keep aside my personal views as well as not compare them with that of the patient. This helps me to concentrate on the assignment and patient needs. I may not agree with the patient spiritual belief, but I show interest in their perspective. Dealing with a patient whose worldview differs from mine, my strengths would include: facilitating expressions as well as the articulation of patient’s desires, values, beliefs and needs that shape choices and interactions of the patient. Encourage the patient to share their hopes, fears, and creative expressions. Engage with the patient experience and encourage him/her to express the full range of the feelings and emotions.

There is also weakness that I may face as the healthcare provider. Being unfamiliar with some culture is a barrier since some ideas of the patient I might see them as taboo. Uncertainty, as well as the fear of the general medical practitioners, may be a barrier since some may want to listen to what the patient may want to share. Lack of privacy is another barrier since some patient could wish to express their perspective in private but when there are other patients, he/she holds back. As a patient, I have the final say during the difficult situation. Once I understand the risks, and the benefits of a particular treatment will enable decide what I want. The practitioner is supposed to support me during the decision-making process. In case am in a situation that I cannot be able to make the decision, I may want my doctor to do it for me.
