We revised it a small amount and changed it from bottle feeding to formula feeding to use the correct terminology and changed it from breastfeeding to pumped breast milk. We also switched it from measuring the babies’ nutrition to measuring adequate nutrition intake to make it more specific. Some challenges that I experienced were that I am very used to finding research articles to back scientific theses and not for PICOT questions. I was finding articles that were not specific enough for evidence based practice. I understand this concept a lot more now about how the articles need to specifically back up the topic that you are researching for it to be considered evidence based practice. We solved the problem by communicating with each other and with our professor to figure out where we were going wrong with our searches. Some successes our team has experienced is that Annie and I work really well together and come up with great ideas. We both think that this topic is really interesting and are excited to see how we can formulate our paper based off of the research from the three articles.

I anticipate this project going really well. Our topic is something I have actually wondered about before and I am excited to see through research what we find out. Annie and I work really well together and even though we do not have other team members, it will be really easy to split the work 50/50. We have communicated well through email and in class and have supported each other in accomplishing tasks well. We agreed that we would split the work in half and have finished everything early so far so not finishing things on time should not be an issue, but if it becomes one we will be able to communicate about it. I think barriers may just be busy since we are both nursing students, but getting work done while busy is a really important school for nursing because nurses are constantly on the go and have many things they have to remember to do at once. Nurses are the kings and queens of multitasking!
I am interested in psychiatric nursing because I have learned a lot about the process of psychiatry in my life and mental health topics interest me a lot. There are so many complicated things about the human mind and I am really excited for the mental health class that we are enrolled in this semester to learn more about those topics. I would like to be an advocate as a nurse for patients that suffer from mental illnesses because I know how it feels to be in that position and if I can care for them when they are struggling and be a comfort that will be amazing. I am also interested in women’s health nursing. I am a big advocate for making birth control more accessible for young women and providing more sex education to teenagers. I would like to do some community teaching through nursing at some point in my career.
I think evidenced based practice is taking clinical studies and published medical work and applying it to clinical practice to improve quality and efficiency of care. Evidence- based practice is how medical professionals keep their practice from being static and can constantly improve care as more work is published about medical practices. I will apply what I learn in this course to other courses and clinical because I will be able to do my own clinical research in order to provide the most educated and best quality of care that can be provided.
