NURS 5013 Texas Womens University Middle Range Theory Research Paper
Choose one grand or mid-range nursing theory. Locate at least two research articles that have used the theory and briefly share the studies with your colleagues.Describe one clinical, educational, or leadership incident from your own repertoire of real, down-to-earth experiences that fits the theory. (I have experience in family medicine, trauma, orthopedics and I am currently a school nurse)Review your colleagues’ chosen theories. Respond to one colleague and discuss how their theory may also fit into your world of experience (or not)THIS IS THE BOOK WE USE: McEwen, M. & Wills, E. M. (2017) Theoretical basis for nursing (5th ed.). Philadelphia: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. ISBN 97814963512PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS STUDENTI have chosen Dorothea Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory. This grand theory is made of multiple theories encompassed into one, this includes, theories of self-care, self-care deficits, and nursing systems. The SCDNT is defined as an art the practitioner gives special assistance to patients with disabilities which makes increased importance of meeting self-care needs to patients (McEwen & Willis, 2019). Orem's self-care deficit nursing theory considers each individual as a self-care agent with the ability to perform self-care tasks individually (Tok & Kasikci, 2020). A crucial issue in improving quality of life in patients with chronic illness is ensuring patient participation in their treatment and care (Tok & Kasikci, 2020). Self-care, defined as a regulatory function that is to supply or ensure the materials needed for continued life, growth and development of human integrity (McEwen & Willis, 2019).The first article contained a randomized, controlled, pretest/posttest experimental study was conducted between January 2015 and February 2017. The study population comprised patients with CAD from a cardiology clinic of a university and public hospital. One hundred and two patients, 51 of were assigned to the intervention group and 51 were assigned to the control group, were randomized according to gender, age (unmodifiable risk factors that increase the risk of CAD), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol level, and Self-Care Agency Scale score (Tok & Kasikci, 2020). The control group was not supplied with increased information and a training book and the experimental group was supplied with a training book on what to eat, to exercise, and to follow guidelines that improved self-care to determine if this would decrease cholesterol levels. At the end of the study it was found that based on Orem's SCDNT increased the level of CAD-related awareness and improved lifestyle habits and disease risk factors decreased risk factors for CAD. Furthermore, the intervention was effective in improving self-care agency by increasing awareness of, ability to utilize, and ability to further enhance their self-care agency.In the second article, a case study of a client with type 2 diabetes was used to illustrate the use of Orem’s self-care deficit theory. Orem’s self-care deficit theory provided a theoretical framework to guide assistance of a client with diabetes to meet self-management requirements. In this article a lady named Stella was evaluated by a practitioner after she was referred to a specialist for a peripheral neuropathy in her legs. Stella was then asked to come up with goals for herself that would increase her care for herself thus decreasing her neuropathy by lowering her glucose levels caused from diabetes. It was noticed that Stella definitely had a self-care deficit as evidenced by her poor food choices, sedentary lifestyle, and successful management of her illness as a result of her increased knowledge was indicated by the following self-care actions: 1. Stella performed a blood glucose daily and her diary indicated an average blood sugar of 140. 2. Her food diary indicates food choices that support lower sugar levels. 3. At the 1-month follow-up visit with the CNS, Stella had lost a total of 7.6 pounds, exceeding her short-term goal. 4. Stella reports that the pain in her legs is improving. With increased knowledge came increased self-care for this patient provided by the practitioner working with her (Kumar, 2007). This proves Orem’s theory to be prevalent amongst nursing practice today.A clinical incident from my own experiences come into practice quite often. As an ER nurse teaching and discharge instructions are often. I do not know that I can recall just one event, however, I can recall many times when a patient has received news of a new diagnosis. As an RN and in the future as an FNP, teaching will become increasingly important. I go out of my way to teach the new medications they will be discharged with. I teach ways to decrease blood pressure, better foods to eat when it is diabetes or hypertension. I think this all goes hand in hand with attempting to exhibit Orem’s theory of self-care and to allow patients to perform better self-care in order to avoid further health issues..Kumar, C. P.

NHS FPX 6004 Capella University Dashboard Benchmark Evaluation Thesis Paper
Write a 4-6-page report for a senior leader that communicates your evaluation of current organizational or interprofessional team performance, with respect to prescribed benchmarks set forth by government laws and policies at the local, state, and federal levels. In addition, advocate for ethical action to address benchmark underperformance and explain the potential for improving the overall quality of care and performance, as reflected on a performance dashboard.IntroductionIn the era of health care reform, many of the laws and policies set forth by government at the local, state, and federal levels have specific performance benchmarks related to care delivery outcomes that organizations must achieve. It is critical for organizational success that the interprofessional care team is able to understand reports and dashboards that display the metrics related to performance and compliance benchmarks.Maintaining standards and promoting quality in modern health care are crucial, not only for the care of patients, but also for the continuing success and financial viability of health care organizations. In the era of health care reform, health care leaders must understand what quality care entails and how quality in health care connects to the standards set forth by relevant federal, state, and local laws and policies. An understanding of relevant benchmarks that result from these laws and policies, and how they relate to quality care and regulatory standards, is also vitally important.Health care is a dynamic, complex, and heavily regulated industry. For this reason, you will be expected to constantly scan the external environment for emerging laws, new regulations, and changing industry standards. You may discover that as new policies are enacted into law, ambiguity in interpretation of various facets of the law may occur. Sometimes, new laws conflict with preexisting laws and regulations, or unexpected implementation issues arise, which may warrant further clarification from lawmakers. Adding partisan politics and social media to the mix can further complicate understanding of the process and buy-in from stakeholders.Note: Your evaluation of dashboard metrics for this assessment is the foundation on which all subsequent assessments are based. Therefore, you must complete this assessment first.Write a report for a senior leader that communicates your evaluation of current organizational or interprofessional team performance with respect to prescribed benchmarks set forth by government laws and policies at the local, state, and federal levels. In addition, advocate for ethical action to address benchmark underperformance and explain the potential for improving the overall quality of care and performance, as reflected on a performance dashboard.Review the performance dashboard metrics, as well as relevant local, state, and federal laws and policies. Consider the metrics that are falling short of the prescribed benchmarks. Structure your report so that it will be easy for a colleague or supervisor to locate the information they need, and be sure to cite the relevant health care policies or laws when evaluating metric performance against established benchmarks.Note: Remember that you can submit all, or a portion of, your draft report to Smarthinking for feedback, before you submit the final version for this assessment. If you plan on using this free service, be mindful of the turnaround time of 24–48 hours for receiving feedback.PreparationChoose one of the following three options for a performance dashboard to use as the basis for your evaluation:Option 1: Dashboard Metrics Evaluation SimulationUse the data presented in the Dashboard and Health Care Benchmark Evaluation multimedia activity as the basis for your evaluation.Note: The writing that you do as part of the simulation could serve as a starting point to build upon for this assessment.Option 2: Actual DashboardUse an actual dashboard from a professional practice setting for your evaluation. If you decide to use actual dashboard metrics, be sure to add a brief description of the organization and setting that includes:The size of the facility that the dashboard is reporting on.The specific type of care delivery.The population diversity and ethnicity demographics.The socioeconomic level of the population served by the organization.Note: Ensure your data are Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliant. Do not use any easily identifiable organization or patient information.Option 3: Hypothetical DashboardIf you have a sophisticated understanding of dashboards relevant to your own practice, you may also construct a hypothetical dashboard for your evaluation. Your hypothetical dashboard must present at least four different metrics, at least two of which must be underperforming the prescribed benchmark set forth by a federal, state, or local laws or policies. In addition, be sure to add a brief description of the organization and setting that includes:The size of the facility that the dashboard is reporting on.The specific type of care delivery.The population diversity and ethnicity demographics.The socioeconomic level of the population served by the organization.Note: Ensure your data are HIPAA compliant. Do not use any easily identifiable organization or patient information.InstructionsNote: Your evaluation of dashboard metrics for this assessment is the foundation on which all subsequent assessments are based.

(2017) Theoretical basis for nursing (5th ed.). Philadelphia: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. ISBN 97814963512PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS STUDENTI have chosen Dorothea Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory. This grand theory is made of multiple theories encompassed into one, this includes, theories of self-care, self-care deficits, and nursing systems. The SCDNT is defined as an art the practitioner gives special assistance to patients with disabilities which makes increased importance of meeting self-care needs to patients (McEwen & Willis, 2019).
