For your info.

- For the Topic choose something related to new mothers in hospitals rejecting newborn vaccines. Basically saying how much better it is for them to have it. The three Vaccines are hepatitis B, Vitamin K, and erythromycin eye ointment.

- My program of study is Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP).

- The PICOT question format is a consistent "formula" for developing answerable, researchable questions. When you write a good one, it makes the rest of the process of finding and evaluating evidence much more straightforward.
