Week 1
discussion
The discussion assignment provides a forum for discussing
relevant topics for this week based on the course competencies covered.
For this assignment, make sure you post your initial
response to the Discussion Area by the due date assigned.
To support your work, use your course and text readings and
articles from the South University Online Library. As in all assignments, cite
your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA
format.
Start reviewing and responding to the postings of your
classmates as early in the week as possible. Respond to at least two of your
classmates. Participate in the discussion by asking a question, providing a
statement of clarification, providing a point of view with a rationale, challenging
an aspect of the discussion, or indicating a relationship between two or more
lines of reasoning in the discussion. Cite sources for your responses to other
classmates. Complete your participation for this assignment by the end of the
week
Nursing Research
Using the South University Online Library, find information
about nursing research.
Based on your research, respond to one of the following
discussion questions.
Discussion Question 1
Is research used in your facility? If so, what type of research
and how is this different than other nursing roles? Find out if there is a
research committee at your facility. Is research an important component of
clinical practice?
Discussion Question 2
Have you had an experience when evidence-based research had
a significant impact on the quality of your patient care that resulted in
policy making? Please discuss and state the issue and policy.
Citations should conform to APA guidelines. You may use this
APA Citation Helper as a convenient reference for properly citing resources or
