Effective communication to improve nursing.Effective communication to improve
nursing.The information and activities in this Module will assist you in meeting the
following Course Objectives (CO) and Student Learning Objectives (SLO):Demonstrate the
ability to promote evidence-based decision making and effective communication to improve
nursing practice in a variety of settings. (Course Objectives 4 and Student Learning
Outcomes 2,3,4, and 5)Develop a flyer that will encourage staff to attend a presentation
addressing information about your PICOT question and proposed changes to professional
practice and decision-making including the evidence obtained during your search of four
(4) articles (Course Objectives 4 and Student Learning Outcomes 2, 3, 4, 5)Summarize the
information obtained from four (4) research articles about a concern or issue in clinical
practice with peers. (Course Objectives 4 and 5 and Student Learning Outcomes 2, 3, 4, and
5ORDER NOW FOR CUSTOMIZED, PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPERSThe purpose of the
educational flyer is to inform staff members on your unit concerning a clinical practice
update or other contemporary issue associated with clinical practice based on the
information you obtained from your PICOT question.The flyer will either advertise a
presentation of the information learned in your research orprovide a summary of the
information you obtained in your research and how it can be used in practice. The flyer will
offer information to staff in an interesting colorful format containing information about the
time, place, and length of the presentation as well as specific staff members that should
attend (PCAs, RNs, Team leaders, etc) or pictures and a summary of the information and
how it can be used on the unit or in practice. Rubric for Educational Flyer5 minute Video of
Flyer ExampleThe flyer should be 2 pages in length and will be posted in the discussion
forum for peers to review and comment on the flyer. Use APA formatting with in-text
citations and at least 4 references that are less than 5 years old. Please refer to the rubric for
more details.Brochure that educates on the confusion assessment methodIn the
mechanically ventilated patient is spontaneous awakening trials (SAT) with the confusion
assessment method for intensive care unit (CAM-ICU) patients compared with not using
CAM-ICU more accurate in diagnosing ICU delirium? In the intensive care unit, the nurse
initial assessment requires turning down sedation to perform a more accurate neurological
assessment. In my Department I was not taught the confusion assessment method during
my orientation. My preceptor would assess neurological status by asking the patient to
perform certain tasks such as squeeze their hands, wiggle their toes, or questions that they
would nod yes or no to assess for whether the response was correct. There was no

2. consistency across the board as to nursing staff doing proper CAM-ICU assessments. I did
later discover after being on the unit for about six months that CAM-ICU assessment was to
be a part of our initial assessment. However, I did begin working the unit at the beginning of
the pandemic, so maybe that’s why I didn’t learn proper technique initially. Concerns that
arose with the use of CAM-ICU assessment was why there was no consistent use of the
method among the nurses in the unit. It would only be used when the patient exhibited
bizarre behavior. I also pondered if nurses knew how to properly use the method.There
were many articles on CAM-ICU, varying from quality improvement, evidence based
practices and nursing research. Use of the CAM-ICU during daily sedation stops in
mechanically ventilated patients as assessed and experienced by intensive care nurses –
related more to quality improvement because its aim related to the nurses experiences with
the method.Else, B. S., Høye, S., & Hov, R. (2018). Use of the CAM-ICU during daily sedation
