Preparation

To prepare for this assessment, you will need to think about changes you feel are needed to address a problem either within nursing as a professional field or within the organization where you work.

• Using evidence-based practice (EBP) to improve patient care.
• Increasing patient safety and quality of care.
• The use of medical technology such as genes and stem cells, or robots in the OR.
• Addressing the nursing shortage now and into the future.
• Improving the work environment (providing calm, supportive spaces for nurses; improved dialog between health care professionals).
• Better safety for nurses at work (violence, spreading diseases, physical injury).
• Substance abuse by health care professionals.

Or you can narrow the scope to an issue within your own organization:

• Developing a mobility program for an inpatient unit.
• Implementing “smart” technology to assist in patient monitoring.
• Creating a mentoring program to attract and retain nurses.

Drug Treatment for ADHD

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has received a lot of media coverage in the past ten years. One of the things most misunderstood about the disorder is the treatment. Children (and adults) afflicted with ADHD are often treated with stimulant drugs. Parents are often hesitant about giving their children these stimulant medications. Treating hyperactivity with a drug that increases activity appears paradoxical.

Using the Argosy University online library resources, find at least two peer-reviewed journal articles that explain the effect of stimulant drugs (such as Adderall or Ritalin—amphetamine or methylphenidate) on the brains of those with ADHD.
