A Sample Answer For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWhen nursing students begin college, they are typically gray in many areas, and professional knowledge develops as they learn concepts in their respective fields and network with peers. Academic and professional support are required for nurses to successfully complete degrees. Professional collaboration increases this support. Interprofessional collaboration is essential in nursing because it allows nurses to interact socially and professionally while working in groups (Moss et al., 2016). It promotes the exchange of information and resources. Networking broadens one’s sphere of influence. Professional networking, according to Goolsby and Knestrick (2017), allows nurses to communicate with people who share their interests and experiences. It creates new opportunities by fostering collaboration. Interdisciplinary networking, according to Khanum et al. (2016), provides nurses with contacts for personal growth and for developing contacts that help them become better providers of patient care. This section of my strategy describes the academic and professional resources that I believe will be beneficial to my nursing program.<\/p>\n

Nursing is one of the most intriguing professions in the health industry but students enrolling in the career are usually baffled by what they might expect when pursuing the course. Often, nursing students lack adequate information about the profession in their early instances of learning but as they progress in studies, they acquire additional information and guidance regarding the career (Roodbol & Peters, 2020). In order for nurses to successfully complete their program, they need academic and professional support. These provide avenue for professional interaction and networking to enhance knowledge sharing in the course of studies (Mesquita <\/span>et al.,<\/span><\/i> 2017). As I transition to graduate students, I have also realized the benefits of academic and professional support as a way to optimize interactions for my future career as a family nurse practitioner. In this regard, this paper will help me organize my thoughts by enumerating academic and professional networks who will not only lay a foundation for my studies but also enhance my nursing<\/span><\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 2 | Part 2: Academic Resources and Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nEstablishing a relationship with course mates will help build a support system where any member can ask questions when in doubt of any course content, what one leaner don\u2019t understand, another leaner might have a better understanding about it, hence the need to build a strong support system.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nAsking questions when in doubt helps not just the individual asking the question but other colleagues in the classroom wo might have same concern will benefit from it.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nAdvanced communication skills to promote relationships between patients and nurses. It can be improved by open discussion in classroom and it also improves outcome of patient care.<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

Include a review of resources and approaches you propose to use as a student and a professional.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
In line with my specialty in psychiatric and Mental Health, I have examined a professional body know as American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA) as they stand to promote mental health ans serve a resource for mental health nurse professionals. There are options on how to become a member of APNA which seems seamless and flexible, one of the option is getting registered through the website at Membership Application | American Psychiatric Nurses Association (apna.org)<\/a> \u00a0which seems straightforward for graduates and\u00a0 retired, the online option is not for students as full time mental health students must make an application by\u00a0 following bellow steps;<\/p>\n

A Sample Answer For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWhen nursing students begin college, they are typically gray in many areas, and professional knowledge develops as they learn concepts in their respective fields and network with peers. Academic and professional support are required for nurses to successfully complete degrees. Professional collaboration increases this support. Interprofessional collaboration is essential in nursing because it allows nurses to interact socially and professionally while working in groups (Moss et al., 2016). It promotes the exchange of information and resources. Networking broadens one’s sphere of influence. Professional networking, according to Goolsby and Knestrick (2017), allows nurses to communicate with people who share their interests and experiences. It creates new opportunities by fostering collaboration. Interdisciplinary networking, according to Khanum et al. (2016), provides nurses with contacts for personal growth and for developing contacts that help them become better providers of patient care. This section of my strategy describes the academic and professional resources that I believe will be beneficial to my nursing program.<\/p>\n

Nursing is one of the most intriguing professions in the health industry but students enrolling in the career are usually baffled by what they might expect when pursuing the course. Often, nursing students lack adequate information about the profession in their early instances of learning but as they progress in studies, they acquire additional information and guidance regarding the career (Roodbol & Peters, 2020). In order for nurses to successfully complete their program, they need academic and professional support. These provide avenue for professional interaction and networking to enhance knowledge sharing in the course of studies (Mesquita <\/span>et al.,<\/span><\/i> 2017). As I transition to graduate students, I have also realized the benefits of academic and professional support as a way to optimize interactions for my future career as a family nurse practitioner. In this regard, this paper will help me organize my thoughts by enumerating academic and professional networks who will not only lay a foundation for my studies but also enhance my nursing<\/span><\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 2 | Part 2: Academic Resources and Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nEstablishing a relationship with course mates will help build a support system where any member can ask questions when in doubt of any course content, what one leaner don\u2019t understand, another leaner might have a better understanding about it, hence the need to build a strong support system.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nAsking questions when in doubt helps not just the individual asking the question but other colleagues in the classroom wo might have same concern will benefit from it.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nAdvanced communication skills to promote relationships between patients and nurses. It can be improved by open discussion in classroom and it also improves outcome of patient care.<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics.

There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference.

Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

Title: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWhen nursing students begin college, they are typically gray in many areas, and professional knowledge develops as they learn concepts in their respective fields and network with peers. Academic and professional support are required for nurses to successfully complete degrees. Professional collaboration increases this support. Interprofessional collaboration is essential in nursing because it allows nurses to interact socially and professionally while working in groups (Moss et al., 2016). It promotes the exchange of information and resources. Networking broadens one’s sphere of influence. Professional networking, according to Goolsby and Knestrick (2017), allows nurses to communicate with people who share their interests and experiences. It creates new opportunities by fostering collaboration. Interdisciplinary networking, according to Khanum et al. (2016), provides nurses with contacts for personal growth and for developing contacts that help them become better providers of patient care. This section of my strategy describes the academic and professional resources that I believe will be beneficial to my nursing program.<\/p>\n
Module 1 | Part 1: Developing an Academic and Professional Network<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\nI have identified and secured the participation of the following academic (at least two) and professional (at least two) individuals and\/or teams to form the basis of my network. This network will help me to clarify my vision for success and will help guide me now and in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n
Directions: Complete the information below for each member of your network. For more than four entries repeat the items below with details of your additional network member(s) in the \u2018ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS\u2019 section.<\/span><\/i>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Nursing is one of the most intriguing professions in the health industry but students enrolling in the career are usually baffled by what they might expect when pursuing the course. Often, nursing students lack adequate information about the profession in their early instances of learning but as they progress in studies, they acquire additional information and guidance regarding the career (Roodbol & Peters, 2020). In order for nurses to successfully complete their program, they need academic and professional support. These provide avenue for professional interaction and networking to enhance knowledge sharing in the course of studies (Mesquita <\/span>et al.,<\/span><\/i> 2017). As I transition to graduate students, I have also realized the benefits of academic and professional support as a way to optimize interactions for my future career as a family nurse practitioner. In this regard, this paper will help me organize my thoughts by enumerating academic and professional networks who will not only lay a foundation for my studies but also enhance my nursing<\/span><\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 2 | Part 2: Academic Resources and Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nEstablishing a relationship with course mates will help build a support system where any member can ask questions when in doubt of any course content, what one leaner don\u2019t understand, another leaner might have a better understanding about it, hence the need to build a strong support system.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nAsking questions when in doubt helps not just the individual asking the question but other colleagues in the classroom wo might have same concern will benefit from it.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nAdvanced communication skills to promote relationships between patients and nurses. It can be improved by open discussion in classroom and it also improves outcome of patient care.<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n

- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n

Nursing is one of the most intriguing professions in the health industry but students enrolling in the career are usually baffled by what they might expect when pursuing the course. Often, nursing students lack adequate information about the profession in their early instances of learning but as they progress in studies, they acquire additional information and guidance regarding the career (Roodbol & Peters, 2020). In order for nurses to successfully complete their program, they need academic and professional support. These provide avenue for professional interaction and networking to enhance knowledge sharing in the course of studies (Mesquita <\/span>et al.,<\/span><\/i> 2017). As I transition to graduate students, I have also realized the benefits of academic and professional support as a way to optimize interactions for my future career as a family nurse practitioner. In this regard, this paper will help me organize my thoughts by enumerating academic and professional networks who will not only lay a foundation for my studies but also enhance my nursing<\/span><\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 2 | Part 2: Academic Resources and Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nEstablishing a relationship with course mates will help build a support system where any member can ask questions when in doubt of any course content, what one leaner don\u2019t understand, another leaner might have a better understanding about it, hence the need to build a strong support system.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nAsking questions when in doubt helps not just the individual asking the question but other colleagues in the classroom wo might have same concern will benefit from it.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nAdvanced communication skills to promote relationships between patients and nurses. It can be improved by open discussion in classroom and it also improves outcome of patient care.<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
In line with my specialty in psychiatric and Mental Health, I have examined a professional body know as American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA) as they stand to promote mental health ans serve a resource for mental health nurse professionals. There are options on how to become a member of APNA which seems seamless and flexible, one of the option is getting registered through the website at Membership Application | American Psychiatric Nurses Association (apna.org)<\/a> \u00a0which seems straightforward for graduates and\u00a0 retired, the online option is not for students as full time mental health students must make an application by\u00a0 following bellow steps;<\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 2 | Part 2: Academic Resources and Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nEstablishing a relationship with course mates will help build a support system where any member can ask questions when in doubt of any course content, what one leaner don\u2019t understand, another leaner might have a better understanding about it, hence the need to build a strong support system.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nAsking questions when in doubt helps not just the individual asking the question but other colleagues in the classroom wo might have same concern will benefit from it.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nAdvanced communication skills to promote relationships between patients and nurses. It can be improved by open discussion in classroom and it also improves outcome of patient care.<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference.

Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 2 | Part 2: Academic Resources and Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nEstablishing a relationship with course mates will help build a support system where any member can ask questions when in doubt of any course content, what one leaner don\u2019t understand, another leaner might have a better understanding about it, hence the need to build a strong support system.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nAsking questions when in doubt helps not just the individual asking the question but other colleagues in the classroom wo might have same concern will benefit from it.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nAdvanced communication skills to promote relationships between patients and nurses. It can be improved by open discussion in classroom and it also improves outcome of patient care.<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
In line with my specialty in psychiatric and Mental Health, I have examined a professional body know as American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA) as they stand to promote mental health ans serve a resource for mental health nurse professionals. There are options on how to become a member of APNA which seems seamless and flexible, one of the option is getting registered through the website at Membership Application | American Psychiatric Nurses Association (apna.org)<\/a> \u00a0which seems straightforward for graduates and\u00a0 retired, the online option is not for students as full time mental health students must make an application by\u00a0 following bellow steps;<\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 2 | Part 2: Academic Resources and Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nEstablishing a relationship with course mates will help build a support system where any member can ask questions when in doubt of any course content, what one leaner don\u2019t understand, another leaner might have a better understanding about it, hence the need to build a strong support system.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nAsking questions when in doubt helps not just the individual asking the question but other colleagues in the classroom wo might have same concern will benefit from it.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nAdvanced communication skills to promote relationships between patients and nurses. It can be improved by open discussion in classroom and it also improves outcome of patient care.<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for.

Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 2 | Part 2: Academic Resources and Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nEstablishing a relationship with course mates will help build a support system where any member can ask questions when in doubt of any course content, what one leaner don\u2019t understand, another leaner might have a better understanding about it, hence the need to build a strong support system.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nAsking questions when in doubt helps not just the individual asking the question but other colleagues in the classroom wo might have same concern will benefit from it.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nAdvanced communication skills to promote relationships between patients and nurses. It can be improved by open discussion in classroom and it also improves outcome of patient care.<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
In line with my specialty in psychiatric and Mental Health, I have examined a professional body know as American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA) as they stand to promote mental health ans serve a resource for mental health nurse professionals. There are options on how to become a member of APNA which seems seamless and flexible, one of the option is getting registered through the website at Membership Application | American Psychiatric Nurses Association (apna.org)<\/a> \u00a0which seems straightforward for graduates and\u00a0 retired, the online option is not for students as full time mental health students must make an application by\u00a0 following bellow steps;<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 2 | Part 2: Academic Resources and Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nEstablishing a relationship with course mates will help build a support system where any member can ask questions when in doubt of any course content, what one leaner don\u2019t understand, another leaner might have a better understanding about it, hence the need to build a strong support system.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nAsking questions when in doubt helps not just the individual asking the question but other colleagues in the classroom wo might have same concern will benefit from it.<\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Directions: Complete Step a curriculum vitae (CV) in the space provided. <\/em><\/p>\n
Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference.

Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

Why I selected this individual and\/or team and how they will support my success in the MSN program and as a practicing nurse:<\/strong><\/h3>\nNotes: <\/strong>Mrs. Pamela encouraged me to attend when I was worried about online programs. She re assured me.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 2 | Part 2: Academic Resources and Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nEstablishing a relationship with course mates will help build a support system where any member can ask questions when in doubt of any course content, what one leaner don\u2019t understand, another leaner might have a better understanding about it, hence the need to build a strong support system.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nAsking questions when in doubt helps not just the individual asking the question but other colleagues in the classroom wo might have same concern will benefit from it.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nAdvanced communication skills to promote relationships between patients and nurses. It can be improved by open discussion in classroom and it also improves outcome of patient care.<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
In line with my specialty in psychiatric and Mental Health, I have examined a professional body know as American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA) as they stand to promote mental health ans serve a resource for mental health nurse professionals. There are options on how to become a member of APNA which seems seamless and flexible, one of the option is getting registered through the website at Membership Application | American Psychiatric Nurses Association (apna.org)<\/a> \u00a0which seems straightforward for graduates and\u00a0 retired, the online option is not for students as full time mental health students must make an application by\u00a0 following bellow steps;<\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 2 | Part 2: Academic Resources and Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Directions: Complete Step a curriculum vitae (CV) in the space provided. <\/em><\/p>\n
Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for.

Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n

I have identified the following academic resources and\/or strategies that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or my specialty in particular.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below Identify and describe at least three academic resources<\/strong> or strategies that can be applied to the MSN program, and at least three<\/strong> professional resources<\/strong> that can be applied to success in the nursing practice in general or your specialty in particular. For each, explain how you intend to use these resources, and how they might benefit you academically and professionally.<\/em><\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nGoing through the syllabuses on time to get acquainted to the activities, course outline and the due dates will help one to plan ahead of time and hence result in being successful in this course.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nExploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n
Academic Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nParticipating actively in the discussion classroom will give the learner an opportunity to see things from other people view and aid better understanding. Some people understand things better when explained to them by their peers.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 1<\/strong><\/h2>\nEstablishing a relationship with course mates will help build a support system where any member can ask questions when in doubt of any course content, what one leaner don\u2019t understand, another leaner might have a better understanding about it, hence the need to build a strong support system.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 2<\/strong><\/h2>\nAsking questions when in doubt helps not just the individual asking the question but other colleagues in the classroom wo might have same concern will benefit from it.<\/p>\n
Professional Resource\/Strategy<\/strong> 3<\/strong><\/h2>\nAdvanced communication skills to promote relationships between patients and nurses. It can be improved by open discussion in classroom and it also improves outcome of patient care.<\/p>\n
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
In line with my specialty in psychiatric and Mental Health, I have examined a professional body know as American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA) as they stand to promote mental health ans serve a resource for mental health nurse professionals. There are options on how to become a member of APNA which seems seamless and flexible, one of the option is getting registered through the website at Membership Application | American Psychiatric Nurses Association (apna.org)<\/a> \u00a0which seems straightforward for graduates and\u00a0 retired, the online option is not for students as full time mental health students must make an application by\u00a0 following bellow steps;<\/p>\n

Exploring the online classroom is another academic strategy to being successful in this course. When one explores and locates where discussions and assignments are to be submitted and also understand where and who to call for assistance on any course, it eases frustration of not getting things right.<\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Directions: Complete Step a curriculum vitae (CV) in the space provided. <\/em><\/p>\n
Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for.

Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
In line with my specialty in psychiatric and Mental Health, I have examined a professional body know as American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA) as they stand to promote mental health ans serve a resource for mental health nurse professionals. There are options on how to become a member of APNA which seems seamless and flexible, one of the option is getting registered through the website at Membership Application | American Psychiatric Nurses Association (apna.org)<\/a> \u00a0which seems straightforward for graduates and\u00a0 retired, the online option is not for students as full time mental health students must make an application by\u00a0 following bellow steps;<\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL RESOURCES\/STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 3 | Part 3: <\/strong>Strategies to Promote Academic Integrity and Professional Ethics<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for.

Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n

I have analyzed the relationship between academic integrity and writing, as well as the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics. I have also identified strategies I intend to pursue to maintain integrity and ethics of my academic work while a student of the MSN program, as well as my professional work as a nurse throughout my career. The results of these efforts are shared below.<\/p>\n
Directions: In the space below craft your analysis\/writing sample, including Part 1 (The Connection Between <\/em>Academic and Professional Integrity) and Part 2 (Strategies for Maintaining Integrity of Work).<\/em><\/p>\n
Part 1: Writing Sample: The Connection Between Academic and Professional Integrity<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the space below write a 2- 3-paragraph analysis that includes the following:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n- Explanation for the relationship between academic integrity and writing<\/li>\n
- Explanation for the relationship between professional practices and scholarly ethics<\/li>\n
- Cite at least 2 resources that support your arguments, being sure to use proper APA formatting.<\/li>\n
- Use Grammarly and SafeAssign to improve the product.<\/li>\n
- Explain how Grammarly, Safe Assign, and paraphrasing contributes to academic integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n

- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
In line with my specialty in psychiatric and Mental Health, I have examined a professional body know as American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA) as they stand to promote mental health ans serve a resource for mental health nurse professionals. There are options on how to become a member of APNA which seems seamless and flexible, one of the option is getting registered through the website at Membership Application | American Psychiatric Nurses Association (apna.org)<\/a> \u00a0which seems straightforward for graduates and\u00a0 retired, the online option is not for students as full time mental health students must make an application by\u00a0 following bellow steps;<\/p>\n

There is a relationship between academic and professional integrity as integrity is a core value of educational institutions (Tauginien\u0117 2016). Integrity in academics as it sounds entails the application of one\u2019s ideas and properly referencing work done by others. There are lots of papers to write in the course of this MSN as we are made to write on generally everything about life and if we don\u2019t read research and articles from others its difficult to progress, hence we need to acknowledge the work done by others, anything short of that standard is regarded as plagiarism (Marsh, 2018). As professional nurses, we cant but learn to be honest in all we do as any attempt to follow shortcut might lead to loss of life as we deal with human life. Being compliant with academic integrity grooms us to practice and render ethical nursing services to our clients (Grace, 2018).<\/p>\n
There are couple of tools available to help minimize plagiarism and reduce errors in writing to uphold academic integrity which are Safe Assign which checks the rate of similarity while tolls like Grammerly helps ensure we use correct English words to write standard papers. Also using tools like Paraphrasing and citing properly helps minize plagiarism and uphold integrity in academics (Calonia, 2019).<\/p>\n

I have taken some personal decisions to uphold academic integrity through ensuring that I read and abide to the requirements for the course, check for plagiarism before submission and ensure I carry out proper citations and most importantly engage in team work and networking who have a better experience and be able to guide me in avoiding mistakes (Aureus Medical Group, 2020).<\/p>\n

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for.

Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n

A Sample Answer 3 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 4 | Part 4: <\/strong>Research Analysis<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have identified one topic of interest for further study.

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
In line with my specialty in psychiatric and Mental Health, I have examined a professional body know as American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA) as they stand to promote mental health ans serve a resource for mental health nurse professionals.

\n- Describe your approach to identifying and analyzing peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least two strategies that you would use that you found to be effective in finding peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n
- Identify at least one resource you intend to use in the future to find peer-reviewed research<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Approach in Analyzing and Identifying the Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various techniques that I always consider to identify and analyze my preferred article. Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n
Effective Strategies in Finding Peer Reviewed Research Article<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n
Resources I intend to use in Future to find Peer-Reviewed Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nResources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019). For instance, the web of science creates a list of diary articles, informational indexes, meeting procedures and different assets in technical disciplines, expressions, sociology and humanities<\/p>\n

Am a dedicated registered nurse and United Nations Volunteer nurse with over 10 years of experience in advocating for patients, assessing patient health problems, maintaining health records, and executing evidence based nursing care plan.<\/p>\n
I have all through my nursing career experience collaborated with primary care providers and other health care providers to ensure continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of care to patients.<\/p>\n
I have been part of team that brainstormed and formulated policies that helped reduce incidence of catheter associated urinary tract infections at my nursing home work place with the following plans;<\/p>\n
\n- Primary prevention method of limiting catheter use<\/li>\n
- The development of an indication checklist and educational sessions on catheter use for health care providers as key initiatives.<\/li>\n
- Through use of aseptic techniques and sterile equipment being utilized for both insertion and maintenance of the closed catheter system<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
This accounted for about 40% of all nosocomial acquired infections annually and that policy benefited the patients and the insurance companies as the cost of extended hospital was reduced due to infection.<\/p>\n
I have also been part of a team that ensured at my psychiatric job setting that verbal de-escalation process is utilized to reduce cases of physical or chemical restrain which ought to be the last resort if verbal de-escalation fails.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hence am pursuing my career to become a mental health nurse Practitioner at Walden University so as to advocate more for mental health patients\u00a0 through policies at the local and federal level.

A Sample Answer 5 For the Assignment: NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nTitle: <\/strong> NURS 6003 Academic and Professional Success Plan Template FINAL<\/strong><\/h2>\nWeek 6 | Part 6: <\/strong>Finalizing the Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\nI have considered various options for my nursing specialty, including a close look at my selected (or currently preferred) specialty and second-preferred specialty. \u00a0I have also developed a justification of my selected (or preferred) specialty. Lastly, I have examined one professional organization related to my selected or preferred specialty and considered how I can become a member of this organization.<\/p>\n
The results of my efforts are below.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete Step 1 by writing 2-3 paragraphs in the space below comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 2 by writing a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
Complete Step 3 by examining and identifying one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 1: Comparison of Nursing Specialties<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write 2-3 paragraphs comparing the nursing specialty you have selected \u2013 or the one you prefer if your choice is still under consideration –\u00a0 to your second preference. Identify each specialty and describe the focus and the role that graduates are prepared for. Identify any other differentiators you feel are significant, especially those that helped or may help you reach a decision.<\/em><\/p>\n
I have made a final decision to be a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, I made that decision after I got the experience of being a mental health nurse during the early stage of my nursing career and I picked up interest in exploring this part of nursing specialty as it seeks to provide patient centered holistic care through physical and psychosocial assessments, emergency psychiatric care and treatment effectiveness evaluations while building team relationship with other specialties in providing care to mentally ill patients.<\/em><\/p>\n
Before venturing into mental health, I have also had the experience on information technology (IT) where I participated in developing couple of healthcare software\u2019s, hence I developed the passion for IT and after I finished my BSN, I thought about going for health informatics which supports that passion in me. Am always interested in reducing the paperwork of most healthcare professionals through building software that is specifically designed for their unique jobs, I see myself going for health informatics after am done with my Psychiatric and Mental Health specialty.<\/em><\/p>\n
Step 2: Justification of Nursing Specialty<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to write a paragraph identifying and justifying your reasons for choosing your MSN specialization. Be sure to incorporate any feedback you received from colleagues in this week\u2019s Discussion Forum.<\/em><\/p>\n
This final decision to specialize in psychiatric and mental health was deemed fit after seeing myself work in the mental health facility especially when I worked in a psychiatric crisis response units where I met with young men and women that can\u2019t help themselves due to either drug induced or idiopathic mental health disorder. I developed the passion to assist this patient population get of their addictive state and behavioral issues through use of Dialectical behavior therapy ((DDT) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that began with efforts to treat borderline personality disorder which I think if maintained and encouraged in any mental health facility will yield positive results especially with the complications that comes with addiction like suicidal ideation.<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: Professional Organizations<\/strong><\/h2>\nUse the space below to identify and examine one professional organization related to your selected or preferred specialty. Explain how you can become a member of this organization.<\/em><\/p>\n
In line with my specialty in psychiatric and Mental Health, I have examined a professional body know as American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA) as they stand to promote mental health ans serve a resource for mental health nurse professionals. There are options on how to become a member of APNA which seems seamless and flexible, one of the option is getting registered through the website at Membership Application | American Psychiatric Nurses Association (apna.org)<\/a> \u00a0which seems straightforward for graduates and\u00a0 retired, the online option is not for students as full time mental health students must make an application by\u00a0 following bellow steps;<\/p>\n

Firstly, I check whether the author is a scholar by looking at the academic credentials such as advanced degree, master\u2019s degree or a PhD.\u00a0 Secondly, I have to conduct a thorough survey by understanding what the journal is all about and its targeted audience. Thirdly, it is about checking on the structure of the journal and then determining if it is a clear structure to indicate a scientific research study. For example, the abstract is relatively followed by the heading that shows the study\u2019s design, purpose and discussion of findings. Lastly, it entails determining how the article is written by checking the formal language, professional jargon and its simple indicating a popular source.<\/p>\n There are various strategies at my disposal on finding a peer reviewed research article. First, it entails the use of expression search. It involves using double quotes on a phrase to join the words together. For instance, \u201cSTI prevention\u201d. Secondly, it is about truncating words. This involves shortening of words and then finding the substitute endings of word. I can also use the word \u201cFurthermore\u201d to consolidate my search ideas.<\/p>\n Resources such as Walden library with \u201cCINAHL Plus with Full Text\u201d Database which has great nursing and medically related contents that are reliable, also resources like\u00a0 web of science, Scholastic Search Ultimate and MLA International Bibliography help and support information are vital resources in finding peer reviewed research articles (Kulczycki et al., 2019).
