Assessment 2 4015

For this assessment you will be creating a paper that explores holistic nursing care and how pathophysiology, pharmacology, and physical assessment play a role in delivering holistic care. Your paper should be 35 double spaced pages, not counting the title or reference page. You should also be prepared to support your paper with evidence from the literature and professional best practices.

Your assessment submission will be assessed on the following criteria:

• Define holistic nursing care.
• Definition of Holistic Nursing Care and its Benefits for Patients and Nurses: The section should provide a clear definition of holistic nursing care and explain its benefits for both patients and nurses. The definition should be accurate and comprehensive, and the benefits should be supported by evidence-based research.
• Explain how pathophysiology can help nurses understand the underlying causes and mechanisms of diseases and disorders, and how they affect the whole person.
• Explanation of Pathophysiology and Its Role in Nursing Practice: This section should explain how pathophysiology can help nurses understand the underlying causes and mechanisms of diseases and disorders, and how they affect the whole person. The explanation should be detailed and supported by relevant examples.
• Discuss how pharmacology can help nurses select, administer, and monitor the effects of medications, and how they interact with the patients physical, psychological, and social needs.
• Discussion of Pharmacology and Its Role in Nursing Practice: This section should discuss how pharmacology can help nurses select, administer, and monitor the effects of medications, and how they interact with the patients physical, psychological, and social needs. The discussion should be comprehensive and supported by relevant examples.
• Describe how nurses can use physical assessment to collect, analyze, and interpret data about the patients health status, and how they can use this information to plan, implement, and evaluate care.
• Description of Physical Assessment and Its Role in Nursing Practice: This section should describe how physical assessment can help nurses collect, analyze, and interpret data about the patients health status, and how they can use this information to plan, implement, and evaluate care. The description should be detailed and supported by relevant examples.
• Identify two examples of how these three domains of knowledge (pathophysiology, pharmacology, and physical assessment) can be integrated and applied in different clinical scenarios and settings.
• Examples of Integration and Application of Knowledge in Clinical Scenarios: This section should provide examples of how these three domains of knowledge (pathophysiology, pharmacology, and physical assessment) can be integrated and applied in different clinical scenarios and settings. The examples should be relevant and supported by evidence-based research.
• Convey purpose, in an appropriate tone and style, incorporating supporting evidence and adhering to organizational, professional, and scholarly writing standards.
