Mixed Method Content Analysis In Nursing

As a Registered Nurse who knows the duties that his work demands, I have to demonstrate deeper understanding of the Health Directorate's core values of care, excellence, collaboration, and integrity in my professional nursing practice and patient care. To conform to the above mentioned values, I endeavor to appreciate that improving a patient's experience is integral in patient care. This can be achieved by doing away with fear and anxiety that protracts patients' healing process. Enhancement of the communication between my patients and I will also go a long way in hastening their recovery and their self-management.

First of all, I recognized that I was dealing with humans, and not just dealing with a disease process and application of the nursing process in the aspect of restoring patient health. I was dealing with emotions, and families, and cultural beliefs that influenced individual’s aspects of care. I started to see that health did not just incorporate healing the disease, but also recognized the importance of making sure patient’s felt that their

I shared my professional and personal experiences with colleagues. I also partook in health care team activities, where I established and maintained collaborative and productive working contacts with the health care team (Sibiya & Sibiya, 2014). From time to time I consulted with relevant service providers and medical experts identify personal needs as well as strive for improved professional performance

In order for a healthcare system to run effectively, research is essential when patents are involved. According to Jones (2016), research involves a structured, planned and logical approach to discovering new information, while aiming to extend understanding on a topic or problem area within the healthcare profession. To achieve this, research is divided into two methodologies, qualitative and quantitative. Qualitative research involves methods that are concerned with human perceptions and understanding of their social reality, adopted under complex research topics (Washer, Salloch, Ritter, Vollmann, Schildmann, 2017). These are usually adapted when the exploration topic involves patient experiences, perceptions, meanings, intentions and behaviours (Jones, 2016). Whereas quantitative approaches aim to produce and control social phenomena, through measurement, evaluation and generalisation of findings of a population and encouraging the reproduction of the results obtained. These studies are based around testing hypotheses utilising patients to achieve research goals in controlled environments (Park & Park, 2016). This paper will explore the features of qualitative and quantitative research through papers involving patients in order to highlight the differences in their features, via the aim, data collection methods and results obtained. The quantitative paper explores the effect of muscle energy technique and passive stretching on patients with functional disability with

An advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) is an umbrella term consisting of but not limited to roles such as Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP); Adult Geriatric Primary Care Nurse Practitioner (AGPCNP); Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM); and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA). Across the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, it is an undeniable fact that APRNs care for multitudes of patients across the entire human lifespan and across many certain from the nursing homes and home care to hospitals, pain clinics, and substance abuse centers.

Another reason the design is in harmony with the purpose of the study is identified by the author; there is a lack of narratives of nursing care. The nursing profession has an acute absence of stories that in their collective strength describe not only what nurses do but why. The "why" component is a critical aspect of the nursing profession. It determines how actors understand their roles, and the behaviors that are consistent with those

In this essay I will recall and describe my experience in a health care environment and reflect on communication in that interaction. I will look into interpersonal and communication skills used by the health professional and what I learned from this interaction. And if I am going to use those skills in my future nursing practice.

The definitions of Advanced Practice Nursing have continued to be developed and defined in a variety of ways over time. The definition of APN had become critically essential more than ever as the significant increase in need of APN and the impact of APN’s part in healthcare environment. The definitions provided by the United States Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) DNP Essentials, the APRN consensus model and Hamric, Hanson, Tracy & O'Grady in textbook have similarities and distinctions.

In recent years there has been a movement in nursing to further understand the many terms (concepts) that are used. Concepts in nursing often seem vague or appear to have ambiguous meanings. For the purpose of this paper, we will take a deeper look at one specific concept, emotional intelligence, and examine a peer reviewed article that utilizes the Walker and Avant method to deconstruct the meaning. Emotional intelligence is asks the nurse to look at their own feelings and the feelings of others to achieve a successful nurse-patient interaction. Lastly, this paper will show how emotional intelligence can be applied in practice.

According to the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Hospitals (JCAHO) in July 2004 released a Sentinel Event Alert on the prevention of infant deaths. Its database showed that nearly three-quarters of hospitals cited communication break down and teamwork problems as a major reason for these deaths. The practice of teamwork and collaboration as a unit in patient care is especially important for the role as a professional nurse as it can make the job itself easier and more efficient. When teamwork is emphasized and valued in nursing the overall patient outcome is strongly enhanced. It is crucial all team members involved in the patient’s care work together and communicate effectively to reach the common shared goal. With the vast evolution of new knowledge and information in the medical field, patient care is more complex than ever. With such complex patient care, no one health care provider can treat a patient alone, it takes team work and collaboration between the multiple health care professionals involved in the patient care. Communication competencies should be emphasized to students as a vital aspect of a positive nursing environment during their educational experience.

The meaning of concept analysis is how nursing “explores the meaning of concepts to promote understanding” (McEwen, & Wills, 2010). Pain continues to be a common problem within health care and one of the most treat problems when seeking medical treatment. The concept analysis consist of several steps to complete the process. The steps of the concept analysis are as follows: “1. select the concept 2. Determine the aims or purpose of analysis 3. Identify all the uses of the concept possible 4. Determine the defining attributes 5. Identify model cases 6. Identify borderline, related, contrary, inverted, and illegitimate cases 7. Identify antecedents, and consequences 8. Define empirical references” (McEwen, & Wills,

For decades, a lot emphasis has been put on certain aspect of intelligence. This intelligence is called IQ ( Intelligence Quotient ). IQ includes aspects of Mathematics, spatial learning, Verbal, logical reasoning, and memory. This intelligence could predict to a significant degree of performances and some degree of personal and professional success. However, some people with fabulous IQ scores are doing poorly in their life. They somehow are wasting their potential by thinking, behaving and communication in a way that hinders their chances to succeed. There is something missing in the success equation. The missing part in the success equation is EQ or EIQ ( Emotional Intelligence Quotient ).

The original International Personality Item Pool (IPIP) focused on Goldberg’s 100-adjective markers of the psycholexical FFM structure (Goldberg, 1990/1992). The current IPIP-50 is a 50-item prototype public domain (the NEO-PI-R is a commercial questionnaire) personality questionnaire (Goldberg et al., 2006; Goldberg, 2011). Since the questionnaire is free of charge over 600 different studies have employed it (Goldberg, 2016). Until 2005 the IPIP big-five factor markers lacked validating evidence, but research conducted in 2005 found that the IPIP-50 had a high internal consistency and related strongly to both Costa and McCrae’s NEO-FFI and Eysenck’s EPQ-R Short Form (Gow et al., 2005). In addition, Gow et al. (2005) found that although Intellect and Openness related less strong, it was still 0.59. A study carried out in New Zealand found that there was hardly any evidence to suggest hidden biases at the item or scale level of the IPIP-50 (Guenole & Chernyshenko, 2005). Before looking at the research examining the relation between the FFM and EI, this literature review first presents some of the current findings in EI.
