Question Description
Reflection Assignment #3: Meeting Essential III

This week, reflect on your perception of healthcare delivery models and the nurse’s role in public health programs as it has evolved over the course of your RN-BSN program at WCU. Identify specific healthcare delivery models you support, and compare and contrast public health programs you are familiar with. How does your academic work support evidence of meeting the following?

Essential III: Scholarship for Evidence-Based Practice

Outcome #2: Demonstrate an understanding of the basic elements of the research process and models for applying evidence to clinical practice.
Outcome #5: Participate in the process of retrieval, appraisal, and synthesis of evidence in collaboration with other members of the healthcare team to improve patient outcomes.
Outcome #6: Integrate evidence, clinical judgment, interprofessional perspectives, and patient preferences in planning, implementing, and evaluating outcomes of care.
Outcome #7: Collaborate in the collection, documentation, and dissemination of evidence.
Review your past academic work, evaluate your effectiveness at meeting this program essential, and ponder the impact that this proficiency will have on your future.

Identify how you met the essential by referring to the assignment(s) specifically in your response. Additionally, reflect on and make connections between your academic experience and real-world applications.

Showcase your academic work related to this essential and these outcomes in your ePortfolio and directly reference it in your reflection response.

Recommended: Refer to work you completed for NURS 561 Health Promotion and Disease Prevention and NURS 350 Research in Nursing, as well as other courses, to gather academic examples and evidence of having met this essential.

Your reflection should be 1-1/2 to 2 pages, and APA formatted. Reference and cite any sources you use

* Use NURS 561 Health Promotion and Disease Prevention assignment attached about drug use and misuse (in the research performed to gather the information) , and NURS 350 Research in Nursing in the importance of research in the nursing process

Review past course work that supports this Essential and related outcomes. A good reference point is to look back at NURS Use NURS 561 Health Promotion and Disease Prevention and NURS 350 Research in Nursing (a paper, a journal entry, an activity, a discussion, etc).
THEN directly reference the TITLE of those assignments, provide 2-3 sentences with the knowledge you gained from it. THEN provide 3-4 sentences of how this knowledge was applied in your own nursing practice. This is your ‘evidence’ of HOW you met this Essential. Do NOT give a full explanation from your original paper to avoid duplication of information. NO copy and paste. (just a quick reflective lookback is all that is needed)
Need title and reference page just as you would for any other paper. BE sure to cite your own paper as the ‘author’ in the ‘References’ if you are directly citing a part of your paper

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
