1. Evaluation of Outcomes – My Nursing Assignment
Evaluation of OutcomesAs you translate evidence into practice, it is essential to consider
how you will evaluate the outcomes. As introduced in Week 8, you are likely to encounter
barriers as you integrate research findings into practice. Using a framework for evaluation
can assist in minimizing those barriers.As a nurse engaged in advanced practice, it is now
time to take your practicum project to the next level—evaluating the outcomes you
identified for the Week 9 Discussion and then developing new practice guidelines.To
prepare: The course text, Translation of Evidence into Nursing and Health Care Practice,
provides a list of questions that should be considered when planning for evaluation. See
page 239 for this list of questions. Review the Learning Resources focusing on
the various evaluation frameworks presented. Select a framework and determine how
you would evaluate the outcomes you identified in the Week 9 Discussion (see week 9
discussion in the file area). Based on the possible results of your evaluation, envision
new practice guidelines you would develop. What new standards of care might this lead
to?By tomorrow Wednesday 10/30/18 at 12 pm, write a minimum of 550 words essays in
APA format with at least 3 references from the list of REQUIRED READINGS (see attached
files) below. Include the headers as numbered below:Post a cohesive scholarly response
that addresses the following:1) In the first line of your posting, state the outcomes you are
addressing (those you initially identified in the Week 9 Discussion [see week 9 discussion in
the file area]).2) How would you evaluate the outcomes? Support your response with
evidence from the literature.3) What new practice guidelines would you create based on
your evaluation of those outcomes?4) Discuss any new standards of care that would be
appropriate based on the new practice guidelines.Required ReadingsWhite, K. M., Dudley-
