The paper I submitted was sent back for revisions and need to answer some more points from the rubric. I can post here the paper, the rubric, and the notes from the evaluator. I’m not sure how to respond back to you on here when you ask me questions, sorry, I’m not tech savvy. I can pay extra or send a tip if that is needed, please let me know.
Here is from the evaluator: You did a great job clearing explaining that your requirements for renewing your RN license in Florida include renewing every two years and completing twenty-five hours of continuing education. You also did a nice job explaining how a nurse fulfills the roles of scientist, detective, and manager of a healing environment by collecting labs, examining results, and providing education to the patient’s family to create a healing environment. Please see the comments in the score report for information about aspects that require revisions.

APPLICATION OF NURSING KNOWLEDGE
Application of Nursing Knowledge Kayla Tipton C320 Professional Roles and Values WGU May 11, 2021 1 APPLICATION OF NURSING KNOWLEDGE 2 Application of Nursing Knowledge The theory of human caring is commonly applied nursing theories. Developed by Jean Watson, nurses apply the latter theory by ensuring that patients are given medications at the right time and dosage. Other than this, nurses apply this by ensuring that patients are placed under necessary medical equipment and that they are also well informed about how to go about treatment for them to self-heal. Further, the theory of human caring fits RN practice as it ensures that nurses offer optimal care to patients and that patients receive necessary medical equipment and medications appropriately for them to heal. On the other hand, some of the notable nursing contributions in the 19th century were from Lillian Wald and Florence Wald. While the former pioneered public health, the latter pioneered the modern hospice movement (The Sentinel Watch, 2019). The contributions of Lillian Wald influenced my practice as an RN by increasing the scope of nursing as I now focus on healthful lifestyles and environments. As for Florence Wald, her contributions influence my practice by triggering specialization in terminal illnesses. Far apart, the State Board of Nursing differs from the American Nurses Association (ANA) in that the former advocates for nurses, establishes standards, the scope of practice, and the code of ethics at a state level while the latter does the same at the national level. The two organizations limit the scope of my practice as well as my conduct in nursing practice. As per the Florida Board of Nursing, license renewal requirements include 25 contact hours of boardapproved CE every two years- one contact hour on HIV/AIDS, two hours on prevention of medical errors, and one on domestic violence (Florida Board of Nursing, 2021). However, failure to maintain license requirements in Florida can lead to loss of licensure resulting to inability to practice. Unlike the requirements of a compact state like Florida, as mentioned above, in APPLICATION OF NURSING KNOWLEDGE 3 California, the requirements are 30 contact hours of CE courses through board-approved providers within the past two years (Law, 2006). Contrastingly, the Food and Drug Administration influences my RN profession by expanding the scope of nursing care in drug administration by providing guidelines and standards of preparing and administering medication. On the other hand, the Center for Medicare determines the scope of patient treatment to patients as an RN. My role as a patient advocate in the described situation would be to educate the patient and inform the client about differences in the two types of therapies and, if necessary, support the patient’s best interests. However, the scope of a RN in Florida includes the administration of treatments and medications, care of the ill or injured and promotion of wellness, prevention of illness and maintenance of health (Florida Board of Nursing, 2021). As per the Florida Board of Nursing delegation is defined as the transference of the authority to perform selected tasks or activities designated to a qualified nurse practitioner to a to a competent individual (Florida Health, 2006). RNs apply knowledge from various professions in their practice. I can apply the roles of a scientist as an RN by collecting labs and then examining them in a lab to determine the presence of pathogens. On the other hand, I can act as a detective by collecting labs from a patient, to determine if they have been using certain drugs or not. Lastly, I can act as a manager of a healing environment by educating families about the importance of proper nutrition to ensure that patients get appropriate food after discharge. Aside from that, two notable provisions of the American Nurses Association (ANA) Code of Ethics are that nurse’s primary commitment is to the patient, may it be an individual, group, community, family, or population and that nurses promote, advocate for, and protect the rights, health, and safety of the patients (American Nurses Association, 2015). The two provisions influence practice as an RN by guiding our commitment APPLICATION OF NURSING KNOWLEDGE 4 to patients and promotion, advocacy, and protection to patients, respectively. The two-limit ignorance to patients by RNs. While equipment injuries are a common error in nursing, the above-described provisions can be applied by improving the commitment of nurses to rectify the injuries and their effort to protect the safety of patients affected by equipment injuries. As far as leadership is concerned, some of the four leadership qualities in nursing are integrity, critical thinking, professionalism and excellent communication (Anonson et al., 2013). The four qualities are significant as a leader at the bedside. They allow one to communicate effectively, act professionally and with integrity and develop optimal decisions about a patient. Regarding a nursing team, the latter qualities allow one to communicate effectively, act professionally and with integrity and establish optimal team decisions. Besides this, my working environment cultivates nursing leadership since we are trained and empowered to become leaders. My working environment, however, complicates decision-making as one must involve the seniors and colleagues in making vital decisions. Lastly, my working environment encourages and promotes professional development as we are offered free training and growth opportunities such as educational cost coverage incentives.
