Please reply with one reference to the following post. Week 5 Reflection My goal to become a Registered Nurse began with the feeling that I had while helping others. My mom became sick when I was in middle school. She went from near death to energetic and happy. The nurses provided her with the tools to survive. The historical evolution of the advanced practice nurse begins with experiences just like mine. To know nurses before me, went into the homes of sick and poor individuals and gave them hope that makes me feel a sense of pride. Instructor and class, Nursing comes in many different forms from nurses working in advanced clinical settings in the hospital to nurse educators that influence safe practices. Advance nurses also can work administration and influence policies and procedures within the healthcare system. Nursing informatics is another area that is growing and driving the electronic health records that are required by law. Nursing informatics drive evidence-based research and practices and incorporate them into a system that nurses can use at the bedside. The role of the nurse practitioner is growing year after year. The shortage of primary care physicians is contributing to the demand for mid-level practitioners. The availability and opportunities for advanced practice nurses are broad. Health promotion and disease prevention are at the forefront of advanced nursing. To know that I will provide the much-needed support in my community makes me feel a sense of pride.  Jenkins, J., Docherty, M., & Cain, J. (2018).

Respond to at least two of your colleagues’ posts by offering suggestions/strategies for working with this database from your own experience, or offering ideas for using alternative resources. at least 2 references in each peer responses!  To craft research papers, the research to support the topic must be research articles should be quality, peer-reviewed from a credible source. Above is an example of a research article that meets criteria to be incorporated into a graduate-level body of work. To obtain the peer-reviewed article above, I utilized the Walden Library database search. The article titled “Trends in Pediatric Emergency Department Visits for Mental Health Conditions and Disposition by Presence of a Psychiatric Unit” comes from Academic Pediatrics, which is a peer-reviewed publication. The research presented in this article used a cross-sectional survey to identify patterns of mental health-related visits of youth populations to pediatric emergency departments (Rodean et al., 2019). A cross-sectional survey is a qualitative study that aims to identify patterns, behaviors, actions, and experiences with the use of self-administered interviews (Smith, 2009, p. 7). Since I plan to focus on the pediatric population once I obtain my Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), this journal article is relevant to my career path. Using the Walden library search has been advantageous as it is user-friendly and had many choices to choose from when I searched for “pediatric mental health.” Because of the reasons mentioned above, I did not find it difficult to find related material to my subject of choice. I believe because of the ease of use and the ability to use the “ask a librarian” tool to help find resources, the Thoreau search through Walden University Library is a collection of databases that would be useful to my colleagues. Overall, I would recommend the Thoreau search through the Walden University Library, as it has an expansive variety of peer-reviewed, reputable resources and articles as it searches many databases all in one place (Walden University, n.d.). Incorporating articles and resources that are reputable and peer-reviewed is essential when creating bodies of work that are credible (Laureate Education, 2018). By evaluating resources this week, I am gaining a better understanding of what resources to utilize to create reliable resources that are full of integrity.

Learning styles represent the different approaches to learning based on preferences, weaknesses, and strengths. For learners to best achieve the desired educational outcome, learning styles must be considered when creating a plan. Complete “The VARK Questionnaire,” located on the VARK website, and then complete the following: Click “OK” to receive your questionnaire scores. Once you have determined your preferred learning style, review the corresponding link to view your learning preference. Review the other learning styles: visual, aural, read/write, kinesthetic, and multimodal (listed on the VARK Questionnaire Results page). Compare your current preferred learning strategies to the identified strategies for your preferred learning style. Examine how awareness of learning styles has influenced your perceptions of teaching and learning. In a paper (750?1,000 words), summarize your analysis of this exercise and discuss the overall value of learning styles. Include the following: Provide a summary of your learning style according the VARK questionnaire. Describe your preferred learning strategies. Compare your current preferred learning strategies to the identified strategies for your preferred learning style. Describe how individual learning styles affect the degree to which a learner can understand or perform educational activities. Discuss the importance of an educator identifying individual learning styles and preferences when working with learners. Discuss why understanding the learning styles of individuals participating in health promotion is important to achieving the desired outcome. How do learning styles ultimately affect the possibility for a behavioral change? How would different learning styles be accommodated in health promotion?

You are the registered nurse performing a health assessment on a newborn infant. From the functional health pattern portion of the assessment, you learn the mother is reluctant to breastfeed her baby. How do you respond? Explain the approach you will take to ensure adequate nutrition for the newborn, with or without breastfeeding.  Provide rationale for your answer.

New technology—and the application of existing technology—only appears in healthcare settings after careful and significant research. The stakes are high, and new clinical systems need to offer evidence of positive impact on outcomes or efficiencies. Nurse informaticists and healthcare leaders formulate clinical system strategies. As these strategies are often based on technology trends, informaticists and others have then benefited from consulting existing research to inform their thinking. In this Assignment, you will review existing research focused on the application of clinical systems. After reviewing, you will summarize your findings.  To Prepare: Review the Resources and reflect on the impact of clinical systems on outcomes and efficiencies within the context of nursing practice and healthcare delivery. Conduct a search for recent (within the last 5 years) research focused on the application of clinical systems. The research should provide evidence to support the use of one type of clinical system to improve outcomes and/or efficiencies, such as “the use of personal health records or portals to support patients newly diagnosed with diabetes.” Identify and select 5 peer-reviewed articles from your research. The Assignment: (4-5 pages) In a 4- to 5-page paper, synthesize the peer-reviewed research you reviewed. Be sure to address the following: Identify the 5 peer-reviewed articles you reviewed, citing each in APA format. Summarize each study, explaining the improvement to outcomes, efficiencies, and lessons learned from the application of the clinical system each peer-reviewed article described. Be specific and provide examples.  zero plagiarism 5 references not more than 5 years
