Select one of these topics for your Research Essay:
- Research the different medical professions (nursing, MD, DO, DDS, OD, etc.) and investigate a method that is being used to integrate them, such as electronic healthcare records, or a specific reason why they need to be integrated. Do not try to tell the reader if the integration effort is good or bad; just present research about this new direction of healthcare.
- Research a drug that is either in common use or is new to healthcare. Do not try to tell the reader if the drug is good or bad; just present what’s known about the drug, including its history, uses and precautions, and what information is out there about it.
- Your own research topic. You must discuss this with the professor and have the topic approved before moving forward.
