Opportunities of Evidence-Based Design

/in

Question Description: Consider the following quotation: “Often times, potential users of research knowledge are unconnected to those who do the research, and consequently a huge gap ensues between research knowledge and practice behaviors” (Barwick, M., Boudell, K., Stasiulis, E., Ferguson, H., Blase, K., & Fixsen, D., 2005). Social workers must work to close the gap perceived by the authors of this quote.

In your previous research course, you addressed the concept of evidence-based practice. However, it is important not to fall into a habit of using the term “evidence-based practice” without a clear understanding of its meaning. In particular, it is important to understand what standards of evidence must exist to classify an intervention or a program as evidence based. In this assignment, you are to clarify your understanding of the nature of evidence-based practice and analyze the challenges and opportunities for implementing evidence-based practice in your current social work practice.

To prepare for this Discussion, read the Learning Resources that provide information about different aspects of the evidence-based practice concept. As you read, consider how evidence-based practice or evidence- based programs might be used in a social work agency where you work or where you had a practicum experience.

College level Art Appreciation

Health & Medical Question

Choose one work that particularly engages you. Take time to look at the work in detail; include a picture of the work. Ask yourself: “How does the piece ‘work’? What is the artist doing? Why do I have a particular response (such as joy, fear, curiosity)?” Your response is, to a great extent, the result of the choices the artist has made in the process of creation. You will find useful ideas for thinking and writing about works of art in the text which was required for this course in chapter 1. The following is a specific outline for this paper. Part of your grade will be determined by how well you follow this outline.

Nursing Case Study

/in

Scenario: Hello, I am Isabella. I am 72 years old and a recent widow after the death of my husband Ben, 6 months ago. I have to tell you, things have not been easy for me in this life. But I have always believed you have to take care of yourself. Even when times get rough, I do as much as I can. I might be a little unorganized sometimes so don’t ask me what day it is!

Back when Ben got really sick, we decided it was best for me to stop working so I could take care of him. I loved my job at Sears. I had worked there more than 20 years, ever since Sandra my daughter was in high school. I loved being with people and helping them find just exactly what they were looking for.

At first, Ben could still do things for himself. He had his little daily routine of things to do. He would get up and read the paper, walk down to the little breakfast diner to have some coffee and talk to all his friends there. In the afternoon we would go to doctor’s appointments and do the shopping and other errands. He was still real handy around the house. As time went on, Ben got a little sicker everyday, to the point where in the last year I was doing everything for him. I have to tell you, I was getting so tired and run down, never being able to sleep the night through or have a restful meal.

Our daughter Sandra, as busy as she was with her own life—it being a mess and all—would still try to help out as much as she could. Usually, she would come over with a meal once a week, and stay with her Daddy while I went to mass or had a cup of tea with a friend. Her daughters would come and read stories to their “pa-pop” and sit near him. The smile on his face during those visits made the whole day better.
