Document Content and Description Below

1. Introduction: slide should identify concepts to be addressed and sections of the presentation. Include speaker’s notes that explain, in more detail, what will be covered. 2. Evidence-based pro... jects: slide should explain the general importance of master's-prepared nurses engaging in evidence-based projects related to nursing practice and profession. Provide speaker’s notes with additional detail and support from at least one outside scholarly source (not the textbook or course lesson). Evidenced-based practice (EBP) is a tool often used throughout healthcare. It is used to perform best practice. It is research used to provide quality, safe care that help improve patient outcomes. Evidenced-based practice is often promoted and discussed in the healthcare field, but it raises a question if registered nurses are competent in evidenced-based practice. In order to provide quality care, a healthcare professional must be competent in EBP. According to Melnyk, Gallagher, Zellefrow, Tucker, Thomas, Sinnott, & Tan (2018), there is a need to improve nurses’ skills to be able to achieve competency in evidenced-based practice. Younger nurses and nurses with higher level of education had higher EBP competency levels than those that did not have higher level of education. It is important for academic programs to ensure that healthcare workers achieve competency in EBP. Academic programs that require students to engage in evidence-based projects help promote competency in EBP (Melnyk, Gallagher, Zellefrow, Tucker, Thomas, Sinnott, & Tan, 2018). 3. Conceptual Model: slide should provide an illustration of a conceptual model that could be used to develop an evidence-based project. Possible models include The John's Hopkins or Advancing Research and Clinical Practice through Close Collaboration (ARCC) Models or you may select another model you find in the literature. In the speaker’s notes, explain how the model would be applied to the development of an evidence-based project. Provide support from at least one outside scholarly source (not the textbook or course lesson). 4. Area of Interest: identify an area of interest related to NP practice in which a practice change may be needed. Slide should identify the area of interest and what is currently known on the topic. Speaker’s notes more fully explain what is currently known and should provide rationale for why the area of interest is important to NP practice. Provide support from at least one outside scholarly source (not the textbook or course lesson). 5. Issue/concern and recommendation for change: slide should identify a specific concern related to your general area of interest and your recommendation for a practice change. Speaker’s notes should more fully explain the recommended change and rationale for the change. Recommendation should be supported by at least one outside scholarly source (not the textbook or course lesson). 6. Factors Influencing Change: slide should identify at least 2 internal and external factors that could impact your ability to implement your recommended change. Speaker’s notes should more fully explain how the factors you’ve identified would support or impede the implementation of your recommendations. Factors may bebased on personal experience or on information you found in your research. If the identified factors come from the literature, provide reference citations to support your ideas [Show More]
