Peer post:
Some factors that delayed Barbara’s treatment was her job, as well as her not feeling any symptoms, with the knowledge of how long she has until she needed surgery she decided to wait it out while seeing the doctors, also she stated because genetically there was no family history of heart disease. A psychological response Barbara exhibited when told she needed open heart surgery was shock and fear that turned into denial , she stated she went to four different doctors for their opinion before considering doing the surgery. Based on the BIO-PSYCHO-SOCIAL assessment model, two areas that affected Barbara’s journey to make her decision for treatment were physical illness and Social support. The physical illness was when she was on her walk in central park and when going on the flight of stairs she felt pressure in her chest which led her to getting an angiogram, which determined she needed surgery sooner than she thought. The social support comes from her colleagues from “The View” as well as her daughter being there every step of the way; Barbara stated that she did not feel lonely with the support from her daughter.

PICO Question: Nurses taking care of patients in medical surgical units, what are the consequences of working with high patient-nurse vs low patient-nurse ratio, how does it affect nurses’ performance and patient outcomes?
The annotation of a scholarly journal should identify the thesis (or research question, or hypothesis), the methods used, and its discussion or conclusions. Remember that identifying the purpose is a different task than listing the resource’s contents. To be more precise, the annotation should state why the contents are there. While constructing your annotations, be sure to include the following critical elements:
Restate argument or thesis, methods, and conclusions
Evaluate resource for strengths and limitations
Analyze the quality of each study using the appraisal checklist found in the module resources
Evaluate how each resource has a connection to the PICO question
5 primary, evidence-based resources from scholarly, peer-reviewed journals published within the last five years

PLEASE FOLLOW INSTRUTIONS THIS DOES NOT NEED TO BE APA JUST APA REFERENCES AND CITATIONS
ONLY WRITE 1-3 PARAGRAPHS
ATTACHED IS THE PREVIOUS PAPER I’M NEEDING TO ADD ON TO.  PLEASE REVISE WORK PREVIOUSLY DONE.
ALSO THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE DONE IN LEVELS THE FIRST LEVEL IS ALREADY DONE
During Week Three you created your own nursing philosophy. You will be adding on. Keep the origin philosophy – you will get to see how your education will change in just a few short weeks.
In week three you wrote a personal nursing philosophy write up. Include week threes write up with level headings to differentiate which week is which. The components you will add this week include selecting one from either of the DECs, ANA, & NPA and one from either the IOM report (To Err is Human), and Healthy People 2030, as they relate to health, illness, holism, evidence-based practice, and communication from a BSN-prepared nurse perspective. Adding to your personal philosophy do these organizational missions solidify your personal philosophy or does your philosophy begin to morph in the areas of Health, Illness, Holism, Evidence-Based Practice, and Communication. Keep this assignment to a minimum of one paragraph and a maximum of three paragraphs.
This assignment is not in APA format which means you do not have to have headers with page numbers and title, a title page, one inch margins, and specific fonts (but you must include citations and references) and you may use first person as you are relating to you personally (creating a personal reflection). Please cite your sources (DECs, ANA, NPA, IOM, or Healthy People 2030) and list references for these sources. Do use level headings to help me differentiate between weeks. For example:

Concept Analysis Paper
Purpose: A concept analysis is an exercise designed for the student/researcher to become as familiar as possible with a concept (variable). A concept is usually one or two words that convey meaning, understanding, or feelings between or among individuals within a discipline. Some concepts relevant to nursing are health, nursing, managed care, coping, and parenting. A concept analysis is the first step in communicating meanings, understandings, and feelings.

Directions: For this assignment, you will choose a concept that you would like to define and analyze more precisely for use in your clinical practice, or a health care interest you have. This can be a term you encounter with your work or one with which you would like to research and more precisely define. Look for the measurable quality in your topic of interest, problem, or question.
Write down all of the words you can think of which relate to or express your concept.
Ask colleagues to share their understandings of your concept.
Look up the concept in large unabridged dictionaries/medical encyclopedias and list the definitions you feel most closely describe your feelings or thoughts on the concept.
Search the literature for journal articles and books related to the concept to get a sense of the beliefs and thoughts of others in the discipline regarding the concept.
Begin the analysis paper with a short introductory paragraph expressing what the concept is and why it is significant to you and nursing.
Develop your own definition of the concept from dictionary definitions and literature support, including criteria for measurement of your concept in the real world. Example: Table (concept)-a four-legged platform used to place objects on.
Formulate a list of characteristics or criteria that describe the concept in measurable terms so the concept can be measured in the empirical world. Use your definition, your clinical and theoretical experience, research and literature articles, and books to make the list complete.
Example: Concept-Table Characteristics-
Four legs of the same length.
A flat or platform surface horizontal to the floor.
Used to place objects on.
