I need correction for the last work. its attached.

(comment from professor)

Hello:

I enjoyed reading your selected research study which addresses hospitalized patients with substance abuse disorders. You have offered some pertinent points in your discussion (good job!), but a few areas are still incomplete and will need to be better addressed for this week’s assignment. Allow me to offer some helpful guidance. For example, it is important to provide more specifics about the actual study, such as what type of qualitative study was conducted or at a minimum, how the data collection process occurred.  There also appears to be an omission of the actual data findings which need to be added. You do accurately note that a data analysis occurred, but the details of this are missing. As you likely know, in qualitative studies, the findings are confirmed with the pertinent themes and/or patterns which emerged from the completed data analysis. In your selected article, three major themes were identified and discussed. Of these, which one do you believe was the most relevant and why? Your thoughts are important and will fully answer how the research design answered the scientific question(s). Additionally, more details of the limitations of the study should be discussed. Please refer to your Polit & Beck textbook for guidance.

Another helpful suggestion…When you are discussing details of the study, please be sure to reference the authors’/researchers’ names as in-text citations for the sake of clarity in the sentences which will also meet APA requirements.

JH Evidence Summary Tool

You are off to a nice start, but a few of the columns are still incomplete. One helpful recommendation is that in the second column, be sure to add the doi locator number and the name of the database where you retrieved the article after it. Second, be sure your font and font size are consistent throughout the tool.  Please be sure to watch the Course Orientation presentation by Dr. Olson that has been posted in the Announcements area this week. That information shows some excellent examples of what this tool should look like for a successful grade in this course. Please add the required information and repost this tool as soon as possible and let me know if you have questions.

You will not regret the investment made in developing a thorough JH Evidence Summary Tool as it will help you as you progress in the DNP program. 

APA Formatting

Your APA formatting is good with a few minor errors noted. Continue to use the APA resources located under the Resource tile on the course homepage to assist you with discussions and the important week 6 paper. 

Thank you and please let me know if you have any questions.

Kindly,

professor
