For this written assignment, select one recent (within the last two years) evidence-based article from a peer-reviewed nursing journal that describes a “best practice” in an area of nursing you are interested in.

If you choose an article to read, make sure it relates to a nursing area that is of interest and is published in a peer reviewed nursing journal within the past two years. Cite the article in APA style once you’ve selected it.

Then, give a short overview of the way in which the study was carried out. It should contain information regarding the number of participants, methods for data collection, analysis and statistical tests. You should critically assess and evaluate the validity and reliability and the methods that were used.

After providing an overview of the study, describe the “best practice” that the study identifies. It should be explained in detail what this practice was, how it has been implemented and the results that were obtained.

Finalize your discussion with an evaluation of whether or not the findings from the research support the conclusion and best practices. It should also include an analysis of strengths and weaknesses of the study and how it can be used in practice.

Use the APA format for your writing, and include proper references in text. Your assignment should be concise, focused and no longer than three pages.
