Presentation Topic:  Analyze differences among research, evidence-based practice, practice-based evidence, comparative effectiveness research, outcomes research, and quality improvement. How do these practices affect nursing and patient outcomes?

Part 1 Using your course materials and your own research, discuss the following topics: What are the elements of an all-hazards approach to protection and preparedness at the national level of government, and what primary efforts have been taken to establish a culture of preparedness within American society? Has the U.S. government and society learned the lessons from the 9/11 terrorist attacks and from Hurricane Katrina? Explain your answer. Has this information been integrated into national- and state-level policies? If so, how has this been integrated? If not, how do you think this could happen? Your post should demonstrate an executive-level understanding of the challenges associated with critical infrastructure (CI) and emergency management preparations in place to anticipate and minimize the impact of natural or manmade disasters.Part 2Drawing from national-level documents, including the National Response Framework (NRF) and the Homeland Security Presidential Directives, respond to the following prompts: Consider the debate among homeland security planners and the intelligence community regarding efforts to predict attacks and disasters so that they can be prevented, versus a focus on resilience and investments in recovery capabilities and redundancy. Although you may see importance in both efforts, state and defend 1 of the proposed strategies. On a national level, what steps have been taken in favor of your chosen stance?
