Building upon the skills you acquired in Introduction to Nursing Research in reviewing quantitative and qualitative research studies, present an overview sample of the evidence which will serve in informing the material your team will present in your capstone essay (Pandemic Impact in Healthcare)
This is an individual assignment in which each team member will provide a literature overview of two primary research studies from peer-reviewed nursing journals and/or related professional journals, each with a publication date within the past five years. These studies should be original research, and not literature reviews, meta-analyses, or systematic reviews.
For this assignment:
Create a properly formatting cover/title page
Use the pre-formatted templates provided for quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods studies. You will be typing your responses for each article directly on to the appropriate template.
Please note that responses provided on the template should summarize and paraphrase the information you are gathering from each source. It is not appropriate to copy and paste information from your research articles onto the template. The only exceptions to this would be research questions and/or hypotheses that are germane to a study.
A separate reference page is not required for this assignment as students will be required to provide properly formatted reference entries on the literature overview templates.
In the selection of your studies for the literature overview, you will want to consider those resources that will assist your team in addressing the strategic action plan and key topical areas that will be considered as part of the capstone essay, namely:
Leading, Managing and Following: Nursing Roles and Responsibilities
Patient Safety, Quality and the Process of Change
Regulation and Legal Obligations to the Patient, the Health Care System and the Profession
Intro and Interdisciplinary Communication and Collaboration
Nursing Resource Management
Technology
Please note that this section will contain only a sample of the literature and evidence that you may use in preparation of your capstone essay.
