Thank you! en-us 2018-02-19 21:45:07 UTC 2018-03-12 17:12:54 UTC hello@padlet.com Question #1 https://padlet.com/csiwula/8kl4udyf1tkv/wish/240996580 Nursing research is important for clinical practice. Nursing research explores the best ways to do things and diverse ways of doing things. Nursing research can lead to evidence-based practice, which provides safer care to the patient in the clinical practice. ]]> 2018-03-12 17:05:57 UTC https://padlet.com/csiwula/8kl4udyf1tkv/wish/240996580 Question #3 https://padlet.com/csiwula/8kl4udyf1tkv/wish/240996997 It is important to recognize warning signs. The nurse can recognize early signs by doing frequent patient assessments, continual monitoring, recognizing trending values, and understanding the patient's baseline. It is also important to know common signs and symptoms of conditions and applying critical thinking skills. Once a full assessment is complete, notify the physician using SBAR. ]]> 2018-03-12 17:06:37 UTC https://padlet.com/csiwula/8kl4udyf1tkv/wish/240996997 #6 https://padlet.com/csiwula/8kl4udyf1tkv/wish/240997030  
In order for a health care facility to attract and retain nurses, there are several changes that must be implemented. To minimize high turnover, nurse managers have tried to standardize nursing practice wherever possible. Hospitals must work towards incentives for long-term careers in hospital nursing. Staff development programs may aide in this goal, as well as a clinical promotion ladder for nurses. Evaluating this process is vital in order to see what strategies work best. Nursing education may aide in retaining nurses so they can become more specialized and become experts. Internships and nurse preceptors can also attract nurses because these programs can aide the nurse in adjusting to an unfamiliar environment.

2-    The desire to do a good job at whatever one is doing. 
3-    The yearning to find selffulliment through meaningful work. 
 
A nurse can meet these needs by working in an environment that they have deep interest in. A nurse should find their work to be rewarding and satisfying.

Nurses are very sensitive to their patient’s recovery and are a pillar of support for them. This relationship requires a lot of commitment and involvement. This is all very important since nurses play a huge role in the success of a patient’s recovery. An example of a patient that is difficult to treat would be a patient with dementia. Dementia patients require a lot of patience since they have difficulty remembering you as the nurse every day. This can make it difficult to establish a therapeutic relationship with them.

Nursing is a human science, conducted by self-interpreting subjects who are studying self-interpreting subjects who both may change as a result of an investigation. Caring cannot be controlled or coerced; it can only be understood and facilitated. Caring is embedded in cultural and personal meanings and commitments. Therefore, the strategies for studying it must take into account meanings and commitments.

The nurse calls for and coordinates multiple members of the health care team, whether it be by calling the physician or by calling a code blue. ]]> 2018-03-12 17:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/csiwula/8kl4udyf1tkv/wish/241001329
