My research experience has come from both academic studies on theories of healthcare policy as well as practical application through scholarly articles presented at conferences and meetings within the hospital setting where I work currently. With this knowledge base, I am comfortable with analyzing data within various studies although there are still areas where improvement is needed which can only come with continued education and practice applying new concepts directly into real world situations; something this course should provide ample opportunities for doing so!

Evidence-based practice (EBP) is an area that many nurses struggle with due to its complexity but also its importance within our profession today; therefore having sound understanding of EBP principles helps improve overall quality care provided by nurses everywhere. In regards to myself, over time my experience has helped shape my ability to decipher between reliable sources when assessing potential interventions for patients however there are still certain aspects about EBP where more information would be beneficial such as determining best practices for particular diagnoses or symptoms outside of what traditional means offer us currently . This course should help address those needs by introducing new methods on researching evidence based practices which could prove useful going forward in helping future patients receive the highest level of care possible without sacrificing safety or efficacy measures taken into consideration beforehand .

Finally comes patient advocacy which involves using your clinical judgement coupled with ethical considerations when making decisions concerning patient care plans; something crucial since we often find ourselves balancing multiple interests while providing services simultaneously – itself being somewhat tricky depending upon circumstance(s). The past few years working have made me very comfortable speaking up on behalf patients’ rights while maintaining professional boundaries at all times yet there are always areas where further improvement may be necessary including knowing legal regulations/guidelines concerning procedures or treatments undertaken – something else one can learn from courses like this one given today’s ever changing landscape associated health sciences overall!

Overall taking part in courses focusing upon advanced nursing practice competencies will allow me better prepare myself for challenging clinical scenarios faced everyday while allowing me attain greater heights professionally than previously thought possible just several years ago – all enabling me strive towards career goals established earlier moreover striving higher ones set forth now someday soon after completing required steps along way !
