DISCUSSION
Nutrition & Exercise, Complementary & Alternative Holistic Strategies, and the Nurse’s Role in Patient Education
As seen in this week’s readings and media regarding Complementary and Alternative practices, there is a growing number of American’s using these types of practices for their health. Reflect upon your own personal values and cultural influences and the use of Complementary and Alternative practices when responding to the following questions:
How do culture and personal values influence the use of complementary and alternative medicine practices? (in-text citation and reference required)
In your own culture, what types of complementary practices are utilized? Describe the practice and what it was used for. (no reference required)
What types of complementary and alternative practices have you seen in your nursing practice or used personally and what was the effectiveness of the practice? (no reference required)
Remember to include an APA formatted in-text citation AND corresponding reference from a recent (within last 5 years), professional journal or website (NIH, CDC, etc.). (Failure to include BOTH an in-text citation AND a corresponding reference will result in a significant point deduction. Please contact your coach if you have any questions about this BEFORE submitting your post to the discussion board this week.) You do not need an in-text citation/reference for all questions, but the FIRST question DOES require an in-text citation and reference.
GUIDELINES
You will submit your original post, then engage at least two of your online colleagues in a discussion about his/her responses by responding to their posts. Therefore, you should have at least one original posting and one response to each of two colleagues. Please note that your postings and responses must be “substantive”, which means that they are to add to the discussion and be made AFTER you have read the assigned material (at least 3-4 well-written sentences for each prompt). Please note that your Discussion Board assignments are worth a significant part of your course grade, therefore, you are expected to put thought and effort into these entries.
Please do not attach your discussion board posts as word documents. You may type your post in a word document, but then it needs to be copied and pasted into the actual discussion board thread before submitting.
Original post is due by Wednesday at 2359 and the two responses to peers are due by Saturday at 2359.
An APA formatted in-text citation AND corresponding reference from a recent (within the last 5 years), professional journal or website (NIH, CDC, etc.) is required in your original discussion posting. Blogs, magazines, and newspapers are NOT considered scholarly, professional sources.
