Using the first 2 papers, analyze the response in the US and around the world to Covid. Why has the implementation of public health measures been such a debacle?

Have there been prior pandemics in which the virus mutated and caused mayhem before being contained? Be specific.

Literature review

While the implementation plan prepares students to apply their research to the problem or issue they have identified for their capstone project change proposal, the literature review enables students to map out and move into the active planning and development stages of the project.

A literature review analyzes how current research supports the PICOT, as well as identifies what is known and what is not known in the evidence. Students will use the information from the earlier PICOT Question Paper and Literature Evaluation Table assignments to develop a review (750-1,000 words) that includes the following sections:

Title page
Introduction section
1.A comparison of research questions
2.A comparison of sample populations
3.A comparison of the limitations of the study
4.A conclusion section, incorporating recommendations for further research

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. I have added 3 downloads that will help complete this assignment.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Is there a person whom you admire who has inspired you by their own success? Has an instance of bravery shown you that you could improve the community in which you live by pursuing certain career goals? Do you see a need for people with a certain set of skills in society today, and has that prompted you to forge your own unique path?

Calling or vocation

For many of the people in Callings, there is a single moment of realization about their calling or vocation. Dawn Maestas describes this experience as an “aha” moment. Reflecting on your own experiences, can you think of a specific moment when you realized your career path or college major? Perhaps it was an assignment in high school or a teacher’s recommendation that pushed you to choose your future career or path of study. For this essay, you will investigate what or who has caused you to consider your career path.

-Is there a person whom you admire who has inspired you by their own success?
-Has an instance of bravery shown you that you could improve the community in which you live by pursuing certain career goals?
-Do you see a need for people with a certain set of skills in society today, and has that prompted you to forge your own unique path?
-Discuss in detail what your academic and professional goals are and provide insight into how you established these goals.

Include a summary for the degree and career you are pursuing. Focus on a narrative of the experience that led you to this choice. Incorporate as many details as necessary for the reader to gain a clearer understanding of your message. This essay is of a personal nature and should be written using the first person point of view. While drafting your essay, focus on keeping your narrative extremely specific–instead of broadly writing your entire life story, hone in on that “aha” moment and let your message peek through the details. For example, instead of vaguely describing how you’ve always loved horses, tell us the story of how your first horse ride inspired you to become an equestrian trainer. The narrative essay, above all, is about effective storytelling. Try your best to have fun with this assignment!

HIE Legislative Talking Points

Utilize the documents Effective HIE Use, Federal Incentives May Save Medicare Billions ; Reducing Medicare Spending Through Electronic Health Information Exchange: The Role of Incentives and Exchange Maturity; Health Data Exchange Vital to Quality Care at Lower Costs to create a one- page sheet of talking points that will be shared with other advanced practice nurses for a legislative outreach day.

Other scholarly documents (within the last 5 years) may be used to create the talking points.

All talking points must be factually based. Each talking point must include an in-text citation for support. Talking points should be formatted with bullet points and should contain the most pertinent information to encourage legislators to act on and support EHR and HIE legislation.
