Many nurses are very concerned about what lies in the future of their careers. Each generation has their challenges, but this generation will probably always remember COVID-19. As nurses, we had to reflect on what happened during those days and we needed to soul search because of what we had to confront as nurses. Some of you are on the front lines of this pandemic taking care of patients that are affected.

Instructions:

1. Go to the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN) website and read about moral distress.
2. Please share a couple of experiences that you may have had or that you may imagine that you would have caring for a patient with COVID-19
   • Example: It really disturbs me that a person that is dying cannot communicate with their family. As a proponent of palliative care and hospice and all the ideas connected to this I am adamantly against any person going through the dying process without family present. This has really disturbed me to the point that I am personally dealing with feelings of distress that I cannot come up with an answer.
3. Distinguish between moral distress, burnout and compassion fatigue. Classify the example that is given above. 
4. Read the AACN Position Statement: Moral Distress in Times of Crisis. Comment on the AACN Position Statement. Do you believe the same things about moral distress. What do you believe?
5. Your post should:
   • Answer the questions as thoroughly and concisely as possible. Minimum 1 full page content.
   • Be sure to reference any works that you utilize in answering the questions (Be sure that references ( at least 1) are in APA format).

Week two Discussion Assignment

Discussion Topic:    Nursing leaders need a workforce that can provide culturally competent care. Besides, nursing’s goal is to create a workforce that reflects the population it serves. In our country, we have a multicultural population. Discuss ethical issues in transcultural health care with which staff might be confronted in various work settings (inpatient, clinic, hospice). Ethics, whether philosophical, religious, or spiritual, is the study of morality, good and evil, and the rights and wrongs of human behavior and decision-making. One cultural group might find itself in a healthcare system that is based on the values of a different culture.

The Discussion:

• Must address the topic.
• Rationale must be provided.
• May list examples from your own nursing practice.
• 150-word minimum/250-word maximum without the references.
• Minimum of two references (the course textbook must be one of the references) in APA format, must have been published within last 3-5 years.
• Upload by Thursday, week # 2
• Each student must respond to two student’s original post by day seven. This grade is a compilation of the original post and the response post. Please see the discussion topic rubric with responses in the course documents folder.

Promoting Evidence-Based Practice

In recent years, the implementation of evidence-based practice has been identified as a priority across nearly every nursing specialty (Prevost & Ford, 2020). In addition, nurses are increasingly accepted as essential members and often as leaders, of the interdisciplinary health-care teams. To effectively participate and lead a health-care team, nurses must have knowledge of the most effective and reliable evidence-based approaches to care, increase their expertise in critiquing research, and apply the evidence of their findings to select optimal interventions for their patients (Prevost & Ford, 2020).

Instructions:

1. Read the infomation above, and then answer the following questions:
   1. Identify at least five (5) things you might do to increase your knowledge and use of evidence in your practice? (explain each suggestion and how it fits in the practice)
   2. What are the most significant and driving and restraining forces to make this change?
   3. Would you expect covert or overt resistance to your efforts?
   4. Will you need to enlist support from others or acquire additional resources for this planned change to occur? (be specific as in administrative support or scientific journals, etc)
2. Your paper should be:
   • One (1) page
   • Typed according to APA style for margins, formatting and spacing standards
   • Typed into a Microsoft Word document, include references.
