Evidence-Based Capstone Project, Part 6: Disseminating Results

/in /by

The dissemination of EBP results serves multiple important roles. Sharing results makes the case for your decisions. It also adds to the body of knowledge, which creates opportunities for future practitioners. By presenting results, you also become an advocate for EBP, creating a culture within your organization or beyond that informs, educates, and promotes the effective use of EBP.

To Prepare:

  • Review the final PowerPoint presentation you submitted in Module 5, and make any necessary changes based on the feedback you have received and on lessons you have learned throughout the course.
  • Consider the best method of disseminating the results of your presentation to an audience.

To Complete:

Create a 5-minute, 5- to 6-slide narrated PowerPoint presentation of your Evidence-Based Project.

  • Be sure to incorporate any feedback or changes from your presentation submission in Module 5.
  • Explain how you would disseminate the results of your project to an audience. Provide a rationale for why you selected this dissemination strategy.

Please, write a discussion in two paragraphs about following scenario and answer the questions below.

Several nurses are in the unit lounge eating the birthday cake of Nurse Johnson who is celebrating her 65th birthday. “I’m so glad to have coworkers like you and work gives me such a sense of purpose,” she commented and left the room. In low voices, the other nurses commented, “I don’t get her, I’m half her age and this job drains me. We often get stuck doing the heavy work she can’t do. I know, but she is a wealth of information and patients love her. Yes, but that doesn’t help my aching back.”

What are some of the challenges of having different generations in the workplace?  What issues and accommodations have you experienced in your workplace toward older workers? Should allowances be made for older workers including nurses, and if so, what can be done to support these? Describe the anticipated changes in the characteristics of the older population of the future and describe the implications for nursing and the nursing profession.   

Each posting requires one reference from an English titled, peer

-reviewed nursing journal less than five years old, and a reference from the following

course textbook:

 

ISBN: 978-0-13-295631-4
