Summary: A theory can be used to guide practice.  This assignment is an exercise in supporting a clinical practice with theory and evidence. Directions: Identify an outcome of nursing practice in your area of practice that can be improved.  For example, if you work in home health, you may identify that throw rug use by fall risk patients is too prevalent.  You may be able to use the problem that inspired the theory concepts that you developed in week two. Identify the concept in Watson’s Theory of Caring that could represent or include the outcome.  In our example, the outcome would be the changes in self through the change in the patient’s floor covering practice. Identify a practice that can be changed or implemented that may influence the outcome. Identify the concept in Watson’s Theory of Caring that includes the practice.  In our example, the practice could be to improve the understanding of fall hazards through the engagement in a teaching-learning experience, one of Watson’s Caritas Processes. Identify exactly how these two concepts will be measured with their operational definitions. Develop a proposition between the two. Present your outcome in an APA formatted paper  meeting the University’s standards for a written assignment. Length: 5 to 7 pages including title and reference pages References: 3 to 10.  There should be enough to support the links between the concepts of the problem and the concepts of Watson’s Theory of Caring.

Imagine that you are a healthcare administrator, and you are faced with the following situation. One of the scrub nurses in the hospital in which you work has come forward to let you know that one of the hospital’s top performing surgeons attempted to perform a surgery after having a “few drinks” at dinner. The scrub nurse noticed that his hands were not steady and mentioned it to the surgeon. Because the patient had already been opened up on the table, the surgeon allowed the surgical intern (who was only there to observe the surgery) to complete it while the surgeon passed out in a chair. As a rule, your hospital does not allow surgical interns to perform surgery unless they are under the watchful eye of an attending surgeon or surgical resident. The surgery went well with no immediate complications, and the patient has since been released and is doing well. After learning about this from the scrub nurse, you face an ethical dilemma. Explain what you would do as the healthcare administrator to handle this situation. Your journal entry must be at least 200 words. No references or citations are necessary.
