Define the attributes (include antecedents & consequences): As you are looking at the uses and definitions of the concept, make a list of the characteristics you are seeing over and over. You want to try to show the cluster of attributes that are the most frequently associated with the concept and gives the analysis the broadest insight into the concept. Also include the antecedents and consequences. Antecedents are those events or incidents that must occur prior to the occurrence of the concept. Thus an antecedent cannot be a defining attribute. Consequences are those events or incidents that occur as a result of the occurrence of the concept…the outcomes of the concept. In the coping example, an antecedent was an intensely stressful stimulus …the consequence was the regaining of balance. These may be difficult to understand…be sure to refer to the concept analysis examples for further review.

/in /by

The paper may be no more than 10 pages maximum, should be written in a formal scholarly style and conform to APA format. The following discussion is based on the grading rubric criteria. The use of headings is strongly recommended to organize your paper into the sections listed below:

Significance to your practice and to nursing: We want to hear from you why you think the concept is important. What is it about this concept that is significant to your practice and to nursing in general? Examine the concept from both within the lens of your personal practice and within Nursing in general. Be sure to support this section with evidence from the literature.

Identify uses and define the concept: This section is so very important! What you want to do is look at many, many different sources for uses and definitions of your concept…dictionaries, literature, thesauruses, etc. Do not stick only to the nursing or medical literature. Present the historical development of the concept and its origins in language. Gather all the definitions you can find, even those that you think are unrelated. For example, if your concept is coping, then even look at uses from the architecture literature…there are copings on buildings…coping saws, a coping garment, etc. Even though you may not think it is related to nursing, looking at a concept from as many different perspectives as possible helps you gain a thorough understanding of your concept and gives it a richness in meaning. You will be required in the rubric (guidelines) of the paper to obtain definitions from at least 5 sources and 3 different disciplines. This is a minimum expectation. Look at literature from other disciplines such as engineering, business, art, etc… Some concepts will have many more definitions/uses and remember that you want to be as thorough as possible.

Define the attributes (include antecedents & consequences): As you are looking at the uses and definitions of the concept, make a list of the characteristics you are seeing over and over. You want to try to show the cluster of attributes that are the most frequently associated with the concept and gives the analysis the broadest insight into the concept. Also include the antecedents and consequences. Antecedents are those events or incidents that must occur prior to the occurrence of the concept. Thus an antecedent cannot be a defining attribute. Consequences are those events or incidents that occur as a result of the occurrence of the concept…the outcomes of the concept. In the coping example, an antecedent was an intensely stressful stimulus …the consequence was the regaining of balance. These may be difficult to understand…be sure to refer to the concept analysis examples for further review.

Cases: Write each of these as actual scenarios, you may pull these examples from your own experience, or you may choose to “make them up”.

Model Case: The model case, also often called the exemplar case, is an example of what the concept looks like. You need to apply the concept to a clinical situation sort of like a case study. You can make this up, use an example from your clinical practice, or an example from the literature (It is not appropriate to use the cases developed by an author of a published concept analysis). Bold the defining attributes as your example includes them in the scenario.

Borderline Case: The borderline case is an example that contains some of the defining attributes but not all of them. The case is inconsistent in some way from the concept under consideration. In Chinn & Kramer (2008), they speak of an analysis of fatigue. For the borderline case, the case could include military fatigue clothing. Another example is the concept of mothering. A borderline case might be about a computer motherboard.Related Case: A related case does not contain the critical attributes of your chosen concept, but may contain similar ideas. For example, the concept quality of life may include a related case that is an example of satisfaction with life, well-being or health status. Remember, this should be a demonstration of a situation that is very similar to your chosen concept, but not exactly the same. It will not contain the defining attributes of your chosen concept.

Contrary Case : This case is probably one of the easiest to understand. It is what the case absolutely is not. For example, with the concept of coping, a contrary case would be the host who burns the roast, has a group of people to their house, serves them no food and sends them home. There is no coping to the stressful event.

You will include an introduction & conclusion in the paper as well. Remember that the introduction is really not a long paragraph. Open an introduction with an attention grabber, add a few more overview sentences and close the opening paragraph with the thesis statement. For example, “This paper will include an analysis….”

The conclusion paragraph does not contain any new information or new references; it is a restatement of the main points of the paper.

A number of published concept analysis papers have been provided to you within the Lessons Unit 2 resource section. Be sure to review those articles if you get “stuck” at some point in your writing.

One last point, since you are required to use Walker and Avant’s method of concept analysis, your paper should state this and you should list Walker and Avant on your Reference list:

Walker, L.O., & Avant, K.C. (2005). Strategies for theory construction in nursing. (4th Ed). Upper Saddle River, N.J. Pearson Prentice Hall.

Students will review the following case and conduct a root case analysis.
A 75-year-old female is an inpatient in bed #1 of Room 10 on a medical telemetry unit. She has been admitted for pneumonia. She is slightly confused. No family is with her in the hospital at this time. The nurse introduces herself to the patient, asks her if she needs anything right away, and says she will return shortly with the patient’s medications. The nurse also has the patient in the other bed (bed #2) of the same room, the patient’s room-mate. The nurse is very busy because of the high patient load on the unit that night shift and due to being short one nurse who called out sick.

The nurse comes in to see the patient in bed #1 again and assess her and give her her medications. After the patient swallows all of the pills and is ready to get settled for the night to go to sleep, the nurse realizes that she just gave, to the patient in bed #1, the medications intended for the patient in bed #2.

Relevant Hospital Policies:

1) There should be at least five nurses on the unit on a night shift if the patient beds are full. Contact nursing supervisor ASAP if this is not the case.

2) Each patient’s medications must be dispensed (taken out of the medication machine) and administered (given to the patient) individually. A nurse should not bring medicine to two patients at once.

3) All patient medications must be run through the electronic barcoding medication administration system prior to the patient taking them.

4) Before administering medication, the nurse should check two patient identifiers (name, date of birth, address, etc.). They are usually available in the medical record or on the patient identification band, or a competent patient can tell you too.

5) All patient medication errors must be reported via the hospital patient safety reporting system

Sampling

The temptation to form premature theories upon insufficient data is the bane of our profession.

—Sherlock Holmes (from The Valley of Fear, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle)

Sherlock Holmes, the great fictional logician, may have made this reprimand in reference to the science of criminal investigation, but the underlying principle holds true for all branches of research. Now that you have identified a research problem and developed hypotheses, the next step is to identify your sample and begin gathering data that will answer your research questions. The process of sampling to gather data is a crucial step in the research process in that you must be sure that the instruments and sample population mesh well with the study’s goals and objectives so that they will produce valid and reliable results.

For this Discussion, you identify a target population and sample appropriate for addressing the research problem you formulated in the Week 2 Discussion.

To prepare:

Review this week’s media presentation and consider Dr. Pothoff’s comments on sampling.

Recall the research problem, question, and hypothesis you developed in Week 2’s Discussion which is about Medical errors and ethical issues. With this in mind, ask yourself: What population is most relevant, and accessible, for exploring my research problem?

Consider how you could reach this target population to gather data. What are some challenges you might encounter?

Determine a data collection approach for your target population. Develop an informed rationale for selecting that approach.

Write a cohesive response that addresses the following questions:

What are the researchable populations in your area of practice? Which would be most appropriate for use in your research study?

What are the challenges of obtaining a sample from this population? How could you address those challenges?

What approach would you use to collect data from the sample? Provide a rationale for the approach you choose based on this week’s Learning Resources.

Controlled Terminology and Standards

What are the advantages of standardizing coding terminologies? And what is the best way to achieve consistency for information systems?

As Dr. John Glaser notes in the “What Is Health Informatics?” media presentation (assigned in Week 1), a group of physicians may use many different terms to describe one patient’s painful experience. This simple example can be extrapolated to guide your thinking about the obstacles that have arisen for information system development because of the varied and complex nature of health care.

In this week’s Discussion, you evaluate the interoperability and coding challenges encountered in today’s health care organizations.

To prepare:

Think about how controlled terminology and standards facilitate information sharing, for example, sharing data between an emergency care clinic and a pharmacy or between a primary care physician’s office and a specialist’s office.

Reflect on the national health IT agenda as presented in the Learning Resources.

Consider challenges health care providers are facing in light of the national health IT agenda related to sharing data across information systems and/or controlled terminology standards. What strategies could a health care organization use to address interoperability challenges? Conduct additional research as necessary to determine possible solutions.

Write a cohesive response that addresses the following:

Evaluate the challenges that health care organizations may face when sharing data across systems.

Using your professional experience and/or information gathered through research, provide at least two specific examples of interoperability challenges.

Propose at least two strategies a health care organization might implement to address interoperability challenges.

ASSESSMENT 2: WRITTEN ASSESSMENT

Video for use as trigger: “Deadly Thinking”

This video describes the program of mental health promotion developed for rural and remote Aboriginal peoples by the Australasian Centre for Rural and Remote Mental

Health. You can find out more about this organisation at http://www.acrrmh.com.au

Question 1:
In the video the speakers identify a number of factors associated with living in a rural and remote area which contribute to the development of mental health problems

for Aboriginal Australians.

One of these factors is poverty. With reference to primary health care principles and practices, discuss the link between poverty and mental health/ illness. Ensure

you support your discussion with current nursing and health literature.

Question 2:

Mental health is one of The National Health Priority Areas (NHPAs) chosen by Australian governments for focused attention. The Deadly Thinking workshops target the

prevention of mental health problems. One strategy used is teaching participants to recognise the signs that someone in their family or community may be suffering poor

social, emotional or mental health. Another strategy involves teaching participants a variety of tools, techniques and “specific skills to help them work with their

own people”.

Identify one (1) or more of these tools, techniques or skills and explain how they can be used to promote mental health and wellbeing.

15 marks/ 200 words

Question 3:

Participants in the Deadly Thinking workshops are community elders, community leaders and “natural helpers” – people wanting to raise awareness of and strengthen

social and emotional well being of their own communities.

This reflects the primary health care principle of community participation, whereby it is recognised that engagement and empowerment of individuals, families and

communities are long term and effective strategies for achieving improvements in health and well-being.

With reference to the video, explain how community participation can be used as a strategy for promoting health and well-being.
