Creating a Plan of Care

Utilizing the information you have gathered over the weeks regarding the specific illness group you identified, this week, you will create a plan of care for your chronic illness group.

Create the plan in a 4- to 6-page Microsoft Word document (the 46 pages include the holistic care plan). Include the following in your plan:

  • Start the paper with a brief introduction describing the chronically ill group you selected and provide rationale for selecting this illness and the participants. Clearly identify the Healthy People 2020 topic chosen and why this topic was chosen.
  • You will want to compile the information gathered from Weeks 14 over 2 to 3 pages. This should be in APA format and paragraph form. This is not to be copied and pasted from previous assignments. It is to be a summary of each week. 
  • The paper should include the care plan for your chronic illness group organized under the following headings:
    • Nursing Diagnoses
    • Assessment Data (objective and subjective)
    • Interview Results
    • Desired Outcomes
    • Evaluation Criteria
    • Actions and Interventions
    • Evaluation of Patient Outcomes
  • You will need to ensure that the care plan is holistic and includes at least 3 nursing diagnoses related to the topic and interview results from the previous weeks.
  • Include strategies for the family or caregiver in the care plan and provide your rationale on how they will work.
  • Include a reference page to provide reference for all citations for the paper as well as the care plan.

On a separate references page, cite all sources using APA format.

  • Use this as a convenient reference for properly citing resources.

Draft: Introduction To The Methods Section And Description Of Target Population

 

Draft: Introduction to the Methods Section and Description of Target Population

The goal of methodology in a research proposal is to outline the design strategies used to identify participants or subjects in the study, how you propose to collect data, and how you plan to analyze data.

For this discussion, draft your introduction to the methods section and in the second and third paragraphs, provide a draft of your targeted population (and include your proposed sample).

Methods

Introduction

The purpose of the introduction to the methods section is to provide an overview of your design strategy and explain how your design strategies will help you answer the proposed research question.

Research Question

In your introductory paragraphs to the draft of Chapter 3: Methodology of your integrative project, you will write out your research question. If your research question is quantitative, you will also write out your hypothesis or hypotheses. In addition, you will explain how the research question is part of a logical progression, having emerged from the research problem or the identified gap in the literature as you reviewed the literature for your Unit 4 assignment.

Write your research question at the top of the post. You may upload your draft as an MS Word attachment, but be sure to copy and paste the text into the message box as well.

Sample

In this section of the methodology, you will describe the study participants, how they provide data, how they will be recruited into the study, and any ethical considerations important to the planning of the proposed investigation.

Target Population

Describe the following in your draft for the targeted population:

  • Identifying characteristics and number of individuals, dyads, groups, or units in the study.
  • Your inclusion and exclusion criteria.
  • Your recruitment strategy.
  • Your sampling strategy.
  • Ethical considerations pertinent to the protection of subject or participant vulnerabilities.

When writing about the target population, imagine that you are trying to convince a panel of experts to fund your proposed research. Have you thought about contingencies regarding the nature of the population? Do you have criteria that will support your effort to get clean data that is free of unnecessary variables or distractions? For instance, if you are collecting data from single mothers, will it help or hinder your study to include single mothers with a history of major depression? Making this kind of decision characterizes the planning of inclusion and exclusion strategies.

Quantitative and qualitative studies have different sampling designs: randomized sampling strategies are typically quantitative; purposive strategies are typically qualitative. Be sure that you know which strategies suit your research question.
Recruitment refers to how participants are invited into the study. Explain your plans in a way that other researchers could follow; if the study is quantitative, others should be able to replicate your study like a recipe. If the study is qualitative, the goal is to provide a trail of evidence that another researcher could follow. The trail is presented as a resource that takes subsequent researchers through the steps that led to interpretations of findings.

Ethical considerations are built on the principle that a researcher must do no harm. Privacy needs of participants, including secure data storage, must be addressed. Depending on the type of research planned, contingencies must be considered. Employees’ jobs must not be jeopardized; pseudonyms are recommended and other support strategies may be needed.

Business Idea

Defining the Subject, Purpose, and Main Points

Your topic should be based upon an original business idea you will create. Your challenge is to create an idea, a company, product, or service. In this proposal you will be asking lenders for money to create and launch this new idea, company, product, or service. The idea is to create a new and useful idea and something you can sell to the public. A sample of a basic written outline for the presentation will be provided in class. The first step is topic approval. With this topic submission plan, you and your partner will define the subject, purpose, and main points of your business concept. These are important aspects of preparation for your presentation.  Please answer the questions listed below.  

Briefly explain what your idea is:  

Purpose: 

The purpose explains what your project will do. Write your purpose in one sentence:

Main Points:

Your main points state the overall aim and goals of your project.  What makes your idea different, interesting, exciting, and new?  Answering these 3 questions is a good place to start:

We believe this product, business or service will. . .

How much will it cost? 

Who will benefit?

Why is it important?
