Choosing one “hot topic” from course content, identify a related practice dilemma and pose a potential solution(s). The dilemma could be stated as a problem, e.g., the incidence of workplace violence in health care is reported to be rising. It could also be posed as a question, what is a root cause of ineffective SBAR handoff reports? Either way, evidence-based plans to remediate the dilemma are discussed in this brief exercise. Minimum elements are:
● Problem statement
● Statistics about or description of the problem
● Implications for patient care, nursing practices or nurse welfare
● Nursing interventions to mitigate the problem
● Evaluation measures relative to the interventions
● Conclusion
