ACADEMIC SUCCESS AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN PART 3: RESEARCH ANALYSIS

Architect Daniel Libeskind is credited with saying “To provide meaningful architecture is not to parody history, but to articulate it.” The suggestion is that his work does not copy the efforts of others but relies on it.

Understanding the work of others is critically important to new work. Contributions to the nursing body of knowledge can happen when you are able to analyze and articulate the efforts of previous research. Research analysis skills are therefore critical tools for your toolbox.

In this Assignment, you will locate relevant existing research. You also will analyze this research using a tool helpful for analysis.

Scenario – There is a new Board running the hospital, and they are aggressive about the hospital being the best in the State. They have decided that you are best suited to lead the nurses in the hospital so that they will initially get status. From there, they are planning on having the nurses lead the way by having every nurse be a leader in their field. Your knowledge of how to reach these milestones is the reason that you were selected to lead the nurses in the hospital.

Instructions:

  1. Read the scenario above, and then answer the following questions:
    1. What will the nurses need to do so that the hospital will become magnet status and be respected in the industry?
    2. What other certifications and awards, etc., will the nurses need to obtain so that the hospital will be named a magnet institution?
    3. What types of organizational designs and structures will need to happen for magnet status?
  2. Answer the questions as thoroughly and concisely as possible.
    • Be sure to reference any works that you utilize in answering the questions (Be sure that references are in APA format).

Week 1: NIH Protecting Human Research Participants Reflection

Protecting human research participants is of utmost importance. Even though your

change project will not be implemented in the field, and you will not be engaging with

human subjects in this context, it is still critical that all healthcare professionals have a

solid foundation in patient rights and protections within the realm of research.

It is essential that all healthcare professionals, whether or not they are currently

involved in research studies, remain aware of regulatory policies and updates such as

the Federal Policy for the Protection of Human SubjectsLinks to an external site.

https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/01/19/2017-01058/federal-policy-for-

the-protection-of-human-subjects, or Common Rule, that will take effect January 2019.

Review the Frequently Asked Questions on Requirements for Education at the National

Institutes of Health (NIH) link here: https://humansubjects.nih.gov/requirement-

educationLinks to an external site.

Download the PDF documents listed below. Read the detailed document by the NIH

and then take the self-check quiz to check your understanding before completing this

week’s assignment.

Protecting Human Research Participants

NIH Office of Extramural Research

Introduction

Research with human subjects can occasionally result in a dilemma for investigators. When the

goals of the research are designed to make major contributions to a field, such as improving the

understanding of a disease process or determining the efficacy of an intervention, investigators

may perceive the outcomes of their studies to be more important than providing protections

for individual participants in the research.
Although it is understandable to focus on goals, our society values the rights and welfare of

individuals. It is not considered ethical behavior to use individuals solely as means to an end.
The importance of demonstrating respect for research participants is reflected in the principles

used to define ethical research and the regulations, policies, and guidance that describe the

implementation of those principles.
Who?

This course is intended for use by individuals involved in the design and/or conduct of National
Institutes of Health (NIH) funded human subjects research.
What?

This course is designed to prepare investigators involved in the design and/or conduct of

research involving human subjects to understand their obligations to protect the rights and

welfare of subjects in research. The course material presents basic concepts, principles, and

issues related to the protection of research participants.
Why?

As a part of NIH's commitment to the protection of human subjects and its response to Federal
mandates for increased emphasis on protection for human subjects in research, the NIH Office

of Extramural Research released a policy on Required Education in the Protection of Human

Research Participants in June 2000. This course is specifically designed for extramural
investigators and is one (of many) possibilities for meeting the policy requirement.
Because this course is intended to allow investigators to fulfill the Required Education in the

Protection of Human Research Subjects, it assumes that the investigators' research will be

funded by NIH and is therefore subject to all U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

(HHS) regulatory and NIH policy requirements.

Assignment

This week, reflect on what you learned from the NIH materials about protecting the

rights of human research participants.

Discuss at least two of the following in your paper:

• Describe the circumstances that influenced the need for a policy to protect

human research subjects. Give examples of specific ways human research

subjects can be harmed by researchers.

• Identify three vulnerable populations and the special restrictions associated with

human research among these groups. Evaluate the requirements and

restrictions. Do you think they are adequate? Why or why not?

• The Belmont Report summarizes the ethical principles and guidelines for

research involving human subjects. Three core principles are identified: respect

for persons, beneficence, and justice. Even though these principles are

considered equal, prioritize them in order of importance to you. Explain your decisions.

• Although you are not implementing a change project at this time, and you may

not be directly involved in research as part of your professional responsibilities,

explain the reasons why it is important for you to know about these rights and

protections.

Your reflective paper should be two pages and written in current APA Style. Refer to the

rubric for more information.

The Affordability and Financial Sustainability of Medicare

After researching the affordability and financial sustainability of the Medicare program, discuss whether or not the Medicare program is reasonably affordable for its beneficiaries – why or why not? Is the program financially sustainable for future generations, given the retirement of the baby boomers and the shrinking of the active taxpaying workforce numbers? What changes could be proposed now/soon to save Medicare? Provide responses based on facts to each of these items (with credible/peer-reviewed citations) in a 200-word supported analysis.

In this unit you learned about the evolution of evidence-based practice and strategies to implement evidence-based practice. You were also provided with an introduction to quantitative and qualitative research designs.

An important step in the review of literature is the ability to identify the type of research that you are reviewing.

For this assignment, you will continue to consider your problem/topic of interest (HEALTH EQUITY). Using the HU Library, search for an article that is related to your chosen problem/topic.

Review the article and identify the type of research design (quantitative, qualitative, mixed).

  1. Provide the APA formatted reference for a full-text primary research article. The article must be peer-reviewed from the last 5 years.
  2. Identify the type of research design.
  3. What factors/information did you use from the article to determine the type of research?
