Reference no: EM133465950

Question: For this Assignment, you will analyze a web-based source of health care information in the United States. The source must be aimed at the average consumer and NOT the professional RN or health care provider.

Sources:
The consumer press includes magazines (Time, Newsweek, Good Housekeeping - anything the lay public may read) and local or national newspapers. The full length web version of a magazine or newspaper article can be used. (Suggestion: save this right away since free access to such articles may stop a few days after they appear.)

The online article must be published within the last year and accessible to the instructor at the time of grading.

You may refer to the Article Analysis Exemplar Download Article Analysis Exemplar as you complete your assignment.

Formatting Guidelines
Use APA formatting to cite the article at the beginning of the analysis. Be sure to include the working URL. (You do not need to use citations in the rest of the assignment since it is clear it is drawn from the article.)

Summary: Summarize the article in 1-2 paragraphs. This should tell the reader what the article was about and the major points made in the article

Analysis: Analyze in 3-5 paragraphs the issue or event described in the article in relationship to the nursing profession, the health care system, or the health of individuals, families, or communities.

Relevance: Depending on the topic of the article, address its relationship to current or pending legislation, the relationships between health care institutions, barriers, or facilitators to access to care, ethical, cultural, or diversity issues in health care.

Reflection: In at least an additional 1/2 page supported by 2 peer reviewed journal articles not more than 5 years old, cited and referenced, reflect upon what you have learned from this assignment and how it will benefit your current and/or future practice.

The analysis should reflect your thoughts about the topic and demonstrate that you have considered the site of the publication, where you gathered the material, that you evaluated what was said, and that you have made a decision as to how this information can and should be used.

Neither the analysis, summary nor reflection should contain ANY direct quotes.
