Make sure you are on the right track with assessment 3 by very carefully reading the assessment instructions and CRA. Let’s break this down according to the question. Your essay should (with approximate word limits): Briefly introduce the case study and its significance. Identify the clinical priority based on assessment item 2 that will be the focus of this essay (200 words). It should be very clear to you by now that a clinical priority is a problem statement, whereas an intervention is an action taken by a healthcare provider to address a problem. Make sure you clearly outline the structure and scope of your assignment in the introduction. Critically analyse the nursing and/or collaborative interventions used to manage the patient’s clinical priority, drawing on evidence-based literature such as relevant clinical guidelines or systematic reviews (1,300 words). This means you have to critically analyse ALL the interventions that were actually performed to manage the clinical priority chosen. You may also identify others that should have been performed based on your review of the literature. Each student’s essay will be different. For example, one student may discuss 4 interventions used to manage the problem, another student may choose to disucss only one intervention in depth. The point is that it is up to you to structure your assignment based on your individual case study. Draw conclusions about the clinical management of this patient and critically reflect on the implications of this learning experience for your future nursing practice (500 words). Based on your critical analysis of the management of this patient, you need to conclude with some specific implications for nursing practice, and for you personally as a graduate RN. Attach a revised case study abstract as an appendix and refer to the abstract in your essay; having it as an appendix means you don’t have to repeat all the case presentation data in your essay. Also have a printed CRA out next to you as a guide when you are writing.
