Reflect on your learning experience throughout the nursing program. Include in your reflection an analysis of your learning experience and how your experience derived from patient-nurse interactions, intra-professional and inter-professional interactions, and appreciation for the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required for the profession of nursing.  Make connections between the learning experience as well as content from other courses in the curriculum, past learning, life experiences, and future goals. Include in your reflection your next steps and goals as you prepare to graduate.

Include in your reflection a discussion on how you have acquired each EPSLO. Use specific examples from your clinical experiences in NUR 250 and NUR 290 to describe how you obtained each of these competencies.  Make sure to adhere to HIPPA guidelines and do not divulge any sensitive and identifying patient information.
(In NUR 250 and 290, I GIVE MEDICATION AND MAKE A CARE PLAN FOR PATIENTS. I USE EVIDENCE-BASED PRATICE, FOR EXAMPLE, THE BRADEN SCALE, THE MORSE SCALE) IN 290/250 NURING CLINICAL, I WAS WORKING WITH ORTHOPEDIC PATIENTS WITH BROKEN BONES. HELP WITH  ACTIVITIES OF DAILY LIVING, I WITHNESS NURSES GIVING IV, AND STARTING A PERIPHERAL IV.)

PLEASE GIVE EXAMPLES OF HOW I ATTAINED EACH EPSO FROM (1-7)

• EPSLO1: Use a caring holistic approach to provide and advocate for safe quality care for patients and families in an environment that values the uniqueness, dignity, and diversity of patients.
• EPSLO2: Apply the nursing process to make nursing judgments, substantiated with evidence to provide safe, quality patient care across the lifespan.
• EPSLO3: Use principles of management and delegation to implement plans of care with members of the intra-professional team to achieve safe, quality patient outcomes.
• EPSLO4: Demonstrate the standards of professional nursing practice and core values within an ethical and legal framework.
• EPSLO5: Apply principles of leadership and inter-professional collaboration to improve patient outcomes.
• EPSLO6: Integrate evidence-based findings and technology into the provision of patient-centered nursing care for patients.
• EPSLO7: Apply effective written communication methods related to the nursing profession.

 Please the Selected Topic is “Smoking And Lung Cancer .

Briefly identify the population health topic (association between a risk factor and a health outcome) you selected. Present a research question based on this topic that you would like to answer in a proposed study. (Consult the Walden “Developing Research” resource for guidance on crafting a research question.)

Explain the epidemiologic study design that would be most appropriate to assess and address your population health problem. Please check the uploaded document

Each student is expected to post at least twice. For your original post, please select one probability problem to work on. Reply to at least one class member’s post. Replies should be meaningful. Avoid responses such as “Great job”, “I agree with you”, etc., that do not add content.

SAMPLE SPACES

1. A Girl Named Florida

Here’s a three-part puzzler. For each part list the sample space. Listing the sample space will make the probability clear. You can denote Boy as B, Girl as G, and Florida as F when listing a sample space. For example, the sample space of the birth events boy-girl and girl-girl is {BG, GG}.

1. Your friend has two children. What is the probability that both are girls?
2. Your friend has two children. You know for a fact that at least one of them is a girl. What is the probability that the other one is a girl?
3. Your friend has three children. One is a girl named Florida and one is a girl named Holley. What is the probability that the first child is a boy?

2. A Game Show

Let’s say you are a contestant on a game show. The host of the show presents you with a choice of 4 doors, which we will call doors 1, 2, 3, and 4. You do not know what is behind each door, but you do know that a new Cadillac Escalade and 3 old cars are randomly placed behind the doors. The host knows where the Escalade is. The game is played out is as follows. The host lets you choose a door. The host opens a door with an old car and asks you whether or not you want to change your door choice.

1. Visualization is a powerful tool. Download the 4-Door Game Show Worksheet Worksheet (<– Click it).
2. Fill in the empty text boxes with Escalade or Old Car as determined by the sample spaces contestant keeps or switches doors.
3. Complete the calculation P(Win | Switch door) and P(Win | Keep door) by revising “?” to the number of favorable outcomes.
4. Attach your completed worksheet to your post.
5. Should the contestant switch doors?

PROBABILITY

3. A Birthday Problem

There are 30 people in this class.

a) What is the probability that at least 2 of the people in the class share the same birthday?

b) If P(at least 2 of the people in the class share the same birthday) = 25%, how many people are in the class?

4. Addition Rules and Real Estate

You are a realtor. In your area there are 50 starter homes, 75 mid value homes without solar power, 15 mid value homes with solar power, 35 high value homes without solar power, and 25 high value homes with solar power. If a home is picked randomly to show

a) What is the probability it has solar power and it is a mid-value home?

b) What is the probability it has solar power or it is a mid-value home?

c) What is the probability it has not solar power and not a mid-value home?

CONDITIONAL PROBABILITY

5. Disease Testing, True and False Positives

0.05% of adults over the age of 60 have lung cancer, 95% of adults who have lung cancer will test positive (the accuracy of the test for people with the disease), and 90% percent of adults that do NOT have lung cancer will test negative (accuracy of the test for people without the disease).

a) Compute the probability of having disease and testing positive (true positive)

b) Compute the probability of not having disease and testing positive (false positive).

c) Compute P(positive test).

d) Compute P(disease | test positive).

e) If somebody tests positive for that disease, is there a 99% chance that they have the disease?

6. Real Estate

You are a realtor. In your area there are 50 starter homes, 75 mid value homes without solar power, 15 mid value homes with solar power, 35 high value homes without solar power, and 25 high value homes with solar power. If a home is picked randomly to show,

Using the data, make your own conditional probability problem.

You must start a thread before you can read and reply to other threads

Select a research article that uses a randomized controlled trial focusing on a clinical nursing problem of your choice. Use this research article to address the following questions:

1. Provide an APA reference of the article including a GCU permalink or working link used to access the article.
2. Using the “CASP Randomized Controlled Trial Checklist,” found in topic Resources, evaluate the study. Based on your findings, summarize the critical appraisal of the selected research article.
3. Do the benefits of the experimental intervention outweigh the harms and costs? Identify and discuss one other ethical consideration applicable to quantitative research studies such as this one.

Initial discussion question posts should be a minimum of 200 words and include at least two references cited using APA format. Responses to peers or faculty should be 100-150 words and include one reference. Refer to “RN-BSN Discussion Question Rubric” and “RN-BSN Participation Rubric,” located in Class Resources, to understand the expectations for initial discussion question posts and participation posts, respectively.
