Nursing 611 Assignment 1

The research question to provide information about the research problem is: What are the nursing care approaches to meet the complex health needs among the older adult population. This research question seeks to investigate the problem by identifying the gaps in nursing care that hinder effective preventive health care and self-management among older adults, and what strategies can be adopted to address those gaps in care. A thorough investigation can inform on best practices for promoting optimal health among the older adult population.

Professor Feedback

this is much too broad and would be like completing doctoral dissertation.

Please see my suggestion:Look at Healthy People 2030 for elderly adults for a health issue that you want to look at. I am thinking vaccines that this age population should have. Like influenza vaccines and pneumonia or shingles vaccines.

Dear Student, Thank you for your good ideas and please see my comments and feedback.

You will be using this topic all the way through the course and up to an including the PICO question and the Module 6 PPT presentation. Have a great week. Sincerely, Dr. Patton
