Hi! Here are the instructions below. You will need to log into my account to see the powerpoint. Please let me know when you are ready to log in and I will give you my info.
This week you have read about nursing organizations, political activism and advocacy, and understanding health care systems. Which are all important parts of nursing excellence. For this assignment, you need to select two of the organizations presented in the lecture (PowerPoint) and provide the following information for each organization (in your own words):
What is the purpose of the organization?
What impact does the organization have on nursing practice?
How does the organization play a role in nursing education?
How does the organization play a role in nursing research?
What part of Nursing Excellence does the organization provide? Political activism? Advocacy? Resource for Health care system?
Would you provide support to the organization as a nurse? Why or Why not?
Your initial post must be posted before you can view and respond to colleagues, must contain minimum of two (2) references, in addition to examples from your personal experiences to augment the topic. The goal is to make your post interesting and engaging so others will want to read/respond to it. Synthesize and summarize from your resources in order to avoid the use of direct quotes, which can often be dry and boring. No direct quotes are allowed in the discussion board posts.
Post a thoughtful response to at least two (2) other colleagues’ initial postings. Responses to colleagues should be supportive and helpful (examples of an acceptable comment are: “This is interesting – in my practice, we treated or resolved (diagnosis or issue) with (x, y, z meds, theory, management principle) and according to the literature…” and add supportive reference. Avoid comments such as “I agree” or “good comment.”
