Order Description
Please note: A recent case study I ordered failed because it lacked research material and evidence based study. So I am hoping we do better on this one.

——————————————–
The Question:
Write a 1000 word essay describing and analysing the professional attributes and scope of practice that is required by a registered nurse working in your specialty placement . A ‘specialty’ registered nurse may include a registered nurse working on a variety of wards or units such as haematology, renal, orthopaedics, aged care, mental health, emergency, paediatrics, midwifery or intensive care.

The purpose of this assessment is for you to identify the extended knowledge and skills demonstrated by the ‘specialty’ registered nurse during your clinical placement.

This assessment is to be constructed with an introduction (a good one), body and conclusion(a good one). You are required to consult current nursing literature and professional specialty competencies. Reference your work using APA style referencing.

****Please note:
(I did my placement in PERI-OP—theatre(1 week) and Post-Op /recovery unit(2 weeks) . So the Specialty for me is Peri Op (Theatre and Post Op -recovery unit after surgury). You can choose to focus on the Post Op/recovery area. But please note and include in your introduction whatever you decide whether Peri-Op (which will cover theatre and recovery/post-Op ) or just Post-Op/recovery.

Please note and include intext citations where applicable(very important).
Some suggested references(As much as you can please use mostly Australia Authors and evidence based research):

Topic: Nursing

Order Description

• Select a health topic of interest to you that is relevant to your current area of practice. The topic may be your Course Portfolio Project or a different topic of your choice.
• Using the Walden Library, locate two articles in scholarly journals that deal with your portfolio topic: 1) Select one article that utilizes a quantitative research design and 2) select a second article that utilizes either a qualitative OR a mixed methods design. These need to be single studies not systematic or integrative reviews (including meta-analysis and metasynthesis). You may use research articles from your reference list. If you cannot find these two types of research on your portfolio topic, you may choose another topic.
• Locate the following documents in this week’s Learning Resources to access the appropriate templates, which will guide your critique of each article:
o Critique Template for a Qualitative Study
o Critique Template for a Quantitative Study
o Critique Template for a Mixed-Methods Study
• Consider the fields in the templates as you review the information in each article.
• Begin to draft a paper in which you analyze the two research approaches as indicated below.
• Reflect on the overall value of both quantitative and qualitative research. If someone were to say to you, “Qualitative research is not real science,” how would you respond?
To complete this Assignment:
• Complete the two critiques using the appropriate templates.
• Write a 2- to 3-page paper that addresses the following:
o Contrast the types of information that you gained from examining the two different research approaches in the articles that you selected.
o Describe the general advantages and disadvantages of the two research approaches featured in the articles. Use examples from the articles for support.
o Formulate a response to the claim that qualitative research is not real science. Highlight the general insights that both quantitative and qualitative studies can provide to researchers. Support your response with references to the Learning Resources and other credible sources.
