Project 2: Bedside Shift Reporting:

This is a continuation of the Course Project presented in Week 2. 

The literature review is a critical piece in the research process because it helps a researcher determine what is currently known about a topic and identify gaps or further questions. Conducting a thorough literature review can be a time-consuming process, but the effort helps establish the foundation for everything that will follow. For this part of your Course Project, you will conduct a brief literature review to find information on the question you developed in Week 2. This will provide you with experience in searching databases and identifying applicable resources.

To prepare:

· Review the steps for conducting a literature review and for compiling your findings.

· Using the question you selected in your Week 2 Project (Part 1 of the Course Project), locate 5 or more full-text research articles that are relevant to your PICOT question. Include at least 1 systematic review and 1 integrative review if possible. Use the search tools and techniques mentioned in your readings this week to enhance the comprehensiveness and objectivity of your review. You may gather these articles from any appropriate source, but make sure at least 3 of these articles are available as full-text versions .

· Read through the articles carefully. Eliminate studies that are not appropriate and add others to your list as needed. Although you may include more, you are expected to include a minimum of five articles. Complete a literature review summary table using the Literature Review Summary. 

· Prepare to summarize and synthesize the literature using the information on writing a literature review. 

To complete:

Write a 3- to 4-page literature review that includes the following:

· A synthesis of what the studies reveal about the current state of knowledge on the question that you developed

o Point out inconsistencies and contradictions in the literature and offer possible explanations for inconsistencies.

· Preliminary conclusions on whether the evidence provides strong support for a change in practice or whether further research is needed to adequately address your inquiry

· Your literature review summary table with all references formatted in correct APA style

Note: Certain aspects of conducting a standard review of literature have not yet been covered in this course. Therefore, while you are invited to critically examine any aspect of the studies (e.g., a study design, appropriateness of the theoretic framework, data sampling methods), your conclusion should be considered preliminary. Bear in mind that five studies are typically not enough to reflect the full range of knowledge on a particular question and you are not expected to be familiar enough with research methodology to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of all aspects of the studies.

I NEED A POSITIVE COMMENT BASED IN THIS ARGUMENT..BETWEEN 100-120 WORDS

Offering a safe and healthy environment through enhancing the quality the patient care. Providing preventive and clinical services for example Diabetes screening, Cancer screening, all these will assist in early recognition of the diseases and early management. Empowering people. In order for people to be healthy they require to be offered easy and reasonable options to uphold their health. These consist of accessing healthy food, facilities to exercise, proper nutrition information, and positive social relations. Doing away with health disparities. There should be no people who should carry an unequal burden of disease and illness.

How nursing fit into this shift?

Nursing can fit to this shift via evidence-based suggestions while encouraging people to receive preventive services like counseling, screenings and preventive medications (Benjamin, 2011). Through public health education, the nurses can also inspire bigger groups of people to take part in healthy lifestyles and eventually live longer lives.
