Assignment 4: Evidence-Based Practice-Sample Selection and Application
Sentinel City® is a city just like your neighborhood. People live there from culturally diverse backgrounds. They vary in age, gender, and income level. Nurse researchers are unable to study the entire world so they choose “groups” or populations to study that actually mirror the population of interest. Your role is to experience the city and identify the “neighborhood” or sample that would provide the best place to study:
- Geriatrics
- South East Asians
- Poverty
- Pediatrics
Once you have identified the neighborhoods, complete an analysis of any evidence-based practice intervention that applies to one population of your choice and describe how you would implement this in the Sentinel City® neighborhood. Remember, use resources that are interprofessional, evidence-based, and focus on improving health outcomes.
Where does a nurse find evidence-based practice recommendations?
- Visit the American Nurses Association
