One hallmark of professionalism is self-reflection. The ability to reflect back on your learning will allow you to continue to synthesize new learning with current knowledge. Please review the course objectives in the Syllabus. Reflect upon your learning in this course and describe in detail how you have met each of the course objectives.
Your initial posting should be at least 400 words in length and utilize at least one scholarly source other than the textbook.
Course Learning Outcomes After this course, you will be able to: 1. Articulate the role of research in the development of nursing knowledge and evidence-based practice. 2. Describe the basic concepts, techniques, and methodologies underlying the research process and their application in the study of nursing problems. 3. Identify researchable clinical nursing problems with the purpose of improving patient outcomes. 4. Use information technology to retrieve hierarchical levels of evidence that addresses clinical questions. 5. Utilize effective critical thinking and written communication skills in the critique of research for applicability to nursing practice. 6. Integrate research findings into nursing practice to meet the changing needs of clients and professional nursing. 7. Describe current research priorities in nursing. 8. Identify legal, ethical and cultural considerations in research that involves human subjects.

Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of screening.
400 words (word limit 500 words) and make sure to provide three (3) citations and references (in APA, 7th ed. format) for your work.

Directions:
Today’s healthcare environment gives nurses many reasons to be conflicted. Genetic testing, abortion, and end of life care are just some of the areas in which nurses may face ethical dilemmas. Consider how you feel about the following issues:
Respecting the wishes of a suffering client that he is permitted to die with dignity,
Respecting the health surrogate’s wishes regarding termination of life support,
Or even observing another nurse take two tablets of oxycodone as ordered but keeping one for herself.
Then give an example of an ethical dilemma you may have confronted in your own clinical experience or workplace. How did you come to the decision you made? What feelings did you experience while coming to that choice? (If you have not yet faced an ethical dilemma, research one and comment on it, answering the same questions.)

Navigate the Joint Commission websites and prepare a presentation on their mission statement and areas that the Joint Commission covers, providing a summary of each area. The presentation is due on Week 8. Minimum 10 slides excluding presentation pages and references page. Two references in APA style

In a Word document, respond to each of the following statements succinctly, but with detail.
Sleep disorders only come in two diagnostic categories, one related to sleep apnea and the other related to the failure to stay awake due to stress.
The use of over-the-counter sleep aids should be encouraged over prescription drugs because OTC aids are safer and not habit-forming.
Menopause has no impact on insomnia.
As a backup to over-the-counter sleep aids, benzodiazepines are the most useful.
What is the best practice for an insomnia assessment?

Please watch the video “William Ury: Getting to Yes” on YouTube.
After working through this video, please provide a short analysis of this idea William Ury proposes of the “negotiation revolution,” especially as to how it works in concert with our week’s challenge in understanding what is healthy conflict and how to maintain it. Please work at least one specific quote out of this video presentation into your post and include a question that is designed to support your colleagues in responding to the ideas you examined in this video.

Module 04 Written Assignment – Nursing Diagnosis
Purpose of the Assignment
1. Assist students in clustering assessment data when developing a nursing diagnosis.
2. Develop students’ ability to write client based outcomes when planning care.
Course Competencies
· Explain components of multidimensional nursing care for clients with musculoskeletal disorders.
Instructions
Using the template below, write 3 NANDA-I approved nursing diagnoses in a proper format based on the client case provided below. Write one SMART client-centered goal for each nursing diagnosis. Consider the client’s medical history and medications.
Kacie Benson, a 19-year-old woman, is a client on your unit due to a skiing accident. She is unconscious and may or may not regain consciousness. She is on complete bedrest. She requires frequent repositioning to maintain correct body alignment and attention to her ROM. She responds to painful stimuli with slight non-purposeful withdrawal. No spontaneous movements are noted. The recent lower extremity ultrasound showed no evidence of venous thrombosis, and she continues on low molecular weight heparin injections. Her fluid and electrolyte balance is being maintained by a tube feeding at 60 mL per hour continuously. She is incontinent of stool and has an indwelling Foley catheter. Her heels are reddened, but otherwise, her skin is intact.
Use at least two scholarly sources to support your nursing diagnoses. Be sure to cite your sources in-text and on a reference page using APA format.
