ESSAY QUESTION:
Research the nursing work of one of the nurses mentioned in chapter two of your prescribed text. Based on this research how would your chosen nurse measure up against the current Australian Competency Standards for the Registered Nurse?
Prescribed Text: Daly, J., Speedy, S., & Jackson, D. (Eds). (2014). Contexts of nursing. (4th ed), Elsevier Australia, Chatswood, NSW.
It is expected that your essay will address/contain the following information:
1. The name of your chosen nurse.
2. An overview of the nursing work carried out by your chosen nurse.
3. A discussion and/or evaluation of how your chosen nurse would measure up against the current Australian Competency Standards for the Registered Nurse.
REFERENCES:………………
Please note:
1. A minimum of four peer reviewed journal articles must required. Rest can be from other trusted and relevant sources.
Remember, your in-text citations consist of author and date. So in regards to eg. the nursing standard, your very first citation would be:(Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia [NMBA], 2006). Now you have explained what NMBA stands for and you can simply use NMBA in your citations: (NMBA, 2006)
When referring to a specific section in your standard, there are two options. You could say something along the lines of: According to Standard 2.1 ………………. (NMBA, 2006). If you don’t refer to the specific standard number in your sentence, your citation would be (NMBA, 2006, Standard 2.1). That would clearly pinpoint where you got the information from and what you are referring to.
