    APA is tricky I agree with you especially when you aren’t used to it. Theres definitely a lot of rules you must follow in order to accurately write your paper in the correct format. I would definitely tell you to try and use some references online to help make the reference page easier.

    I completely agree with you all of these examples are common mistakes that are made when writing in APA format. Alot of these things can be easily missed when rushing to write. I think online there are many resources to help avoid with these common mistakes. Having the correct resources also makes a huge difference.

    I can definitely relate to that Fatuma, I moved here with my family when I was 5 and I still remember how making friends was the hardest part because of the language barrier and cultural differences. It’s amazing to see how far you’ve come and how you’ve been there for your family every step of the way. truly inspirational I wish you and your family the best.

    These are all good websites google scholar in particular; I agree that looking for websites that end in .gov .org .edu tend to be great sources. All of these websites tend to also be peer reviewed so they’re trustworthy. Checking how current the information definitely makes a difference as well.

    This is true looking at where the information was taken from is important in determining credibility. I agree that finding sources who have a background in the information being talked about is very important too. This was very helpful

    Hi Fatuma,
    you make a great point that that evidence-based practice definitely improves patient outcomes. This also does keep patients and healthcare workers safe, using the Hoyer lift shows exactly how evidence-based practice prevent injuries from happening to patients and staff. This makes it a safe environment for everyone creating trust in healthcare workers and patients.

    Hi Beatriz,
    I agree that hand hygiene is such a simple example but so true and has been backed so many times through evidence-based practices. It’s amazing how something so simple as washing your hands for 20 seconds can really make the biggest difference. Stopping the spread of infection and disease is so important and evidence-based practices definitely help with that.

    Cynthia,
    I loved reading your perspective on the two research strategies, qualitative research does tend to dig deeper leaning on, ideas and real-life situations. This research approach all though more hands on does lack credibility due to the lack of numerical data. On the other hand, quantitative research does provide that and focuses on the numbers and measurable data. Very well explained thank you for explaining this contrast.

    Fatuma,
    The way you explained this is very clear. This explanation clearly shows the contrast between the two quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative research does show more data-based face-face and nonverbal indicators by providing charts and graphs. Where in contrast qualitative research leans more on words or labels.

    Cynthia,
    I agree with you that if research does not serve a meaningful purpose children should not be involved. Children are young but with that they do still have rights and respecting that is the most ethical thing to do. The guardian in the situation should be advocating for the child and doing what is best for the child always.

    Kristen,
    I can completely understand you having this outlook being a mother, it shows how protective you’re also understand that children’s consent is so important. I completely agree with you that the child’s best interest and emotional well-being should always be considered first. having informed consent and combining research with medically necessary procedures is definitely the best way to make informed consent.

    Kristen, I completely agree with you on the “information overload” sometimes it almost seems, you have to dig to find the right information because everyone has a point a view these days. It can be hard with that to find credible sources as well. With that being said the accessibility that the internet brings is unmatched. Living in the information age definitely has its perks when it comes to researching quickly and efficiently.

    Hi Swami,
    I completely agree with your perspective, the internet is definitely a blessing because of all the information that is available. I do think the distractions that the internet brings is something that must be dealt with on a personal level, you must have self-control. Finding a good balance, I think is the most important, using the internet as a creative and information tool is the most important. I myself am definitely guilty of getting distracted but it is a process.

    Hi Kristen,
    you bring up a good point about not wanting to confuse patients. I agree with you that clear accurate communication makes a huge difference in patient’s outcomes and can postpone recovery due to lack of education surrounding post care. When patients don’t completely understand, it can lead to mistake in care and even anxiety about care. Being mindful of what we say and how it is being received is so important.
