As a healthcare professional, effective communication is an essential skill for you to have. For this assignment, you will synthesize scientific research with relevant health policy, and write a professional editorial piece for public consumption.

Your role: Content contributor for The American Journal of Nursing

Audience: Healthcare professionals, nursing and administrative.

Format: 3-page paper, editorial style. Plus, a cover and reference page. A minimum of three scholarly sources should be included. In-text citations are required. APA style should be followed throughout.

• Refer to the article Engaging policy in science writing: Patterns and strategies within Unit 3 Topic 2 for additional guidance on using the “push” style of writing.

Structure:

• Choose any scientific research topic, with relevant and reliable scholarly sources available for you to review. If your background is clinical, your focus may be heavy on the science or clinical elements. If your background is more administrative, you may choose research which is more closely related to a social issue (such as emergency contraceptives, vaping use, etc.)
• Choose a policy or proposed policy that directly relates to your area of scientific research.
• Write an editorial article, approximately 3 pages in length, summarizing the scientific research on your chosen topic, and aligning it with relevant health policy. Explain the need for increased awareness around the topic:
  • Who needs to do something about it,
  • When action is needed,
  • What that action could look like, and
  • Why such action will positively influence the future of healthcare.

Silence Can Also Be Deafening (Marquis & Huston, 2012)

You are a nursing student and share an apartment with a friend who dropped out of school several months ago. Your roommate works as a bartender at a local restaurant four evenings per week and often doesn’t get home until the wee hours of the morning. When she was in school, her general routine would be to come in quietly and go to bed so that she could be up early for classes the next day. Since she dropped out of school, however, she often brings home her coworkers who party all night and then sleep on the sofa or floor in your apartment. This has made it very difficult for you to get the sleep you need to be clear-headed for your early morning clinical courses, and you resent the loss of privacy in your apartment.

When the situation first began, you attempted to talk to your roommate about the problem. She became very angry and accused you of being jealous that she “gets to have fun and you don’t.” She refused to discuss the situation further. Since then, she has been cold and aloof, and the situation in the apartment has become worse, not better. When you come out at night and ask her to turn the music down, it is often turned up even louder as soon as you go back to your room. You can hear her and her friends mocking you. Today, you discovered toothpaste squirted inside your shoes and your stethoscope was hung on the toilet.

When you attempt to confront your roommate about the latest incidents, she states she does not have time to talk and that “this is your problem, not mine.” Your lease does not end for 6 months, and you do not have the financial resources to simply walk away and find a new place to live.

· Develop a plan for how you will deal with the passive–aggressive and aggressive behavior of your roommate.

· How do you communicate with someone who doesn’t want to or won’t communicate with you?

TOPIC: Care Delivery or Nursing Model Change 

There will be times when the doctorally prepared advance practice nurse will need to suggest a nursing model change or a change in care delivery. It will be important for the doctorally prepared advanced practice nurse to have an understanding of how to deliver information and what information should be shared with an audience.

This assignment will give you practice with presentation software along with preparing you to provide specific information for your proposed changes. This is a two-part assignment that will also give you practice in presenting to administrators.

General Requirements:

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:

• Doctoral      learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments. 
• This      assignment requires that at least three additional scholarly research      sources related to this topic, and at least one in-text citation from each      source be included.

Directions:

Part One:

Create a 12-15 slide presentation (PowerPoint, include slide notes or voice over; Prezi, include voice over) that presents a proposed care delivery or nursing model change for a department that aligns costs, quality, and health that supports the care of patients across the continuum. Include the following:

1. Background      of issue
2. The      proposed solution
3. How      solution meets need of population (stakeholders, cost, and payer to      proposed change)
4. Proposed      change process to implement delivery model
5. Expected      outcomes
6. Implications      that are realistic and aligned with current and future health care      financing

Part Two:

1. Present      your presentation to at least one administrator.

Write a brief summary, 100-250 words, of the feedback given to you by the administrator(s).

You are required to complete your assignment using real-world application. Real-world application requires the use of evidence-based data, contemporary theories, and concepts presented in the course.
