Disseminating Evidence and Generating Evidence

Part 1

Several considerations can be provided in disseminating the evidence discovered in the evidence-informed health policy. Working for 12 hours would help the nurses as they are treating the patients. Nonetheless, it would cause a new challenge whereby the nurses would suffer from nursing burnout and even have a challenge when handling all the patients in hospitals since they would easily make errors (Brownson et al., 2018). Several considerations can be made as the evidence-informed health policy is created. The policy briefs or publishing programs can be made. It would show the advantages and disadvantages and what adopting it would mean. The procedure may also be disseminated by publishing the project's findings in statewide or national journals (Brownson et al., 2018). It would be vital since it would help the public learn more about it. The policy would also be presented at national meetings and conferences of the professional associations. Since urging nurses to work for 12 hours affect the community, the program may be presented to the local communities and other local stakeholders.

Disseminating the policy is vital since it helps understand what it means and the pros and cons d adopting it. The state would also opt for presenting and distributing the program through materials like guides, DVDs, pamphlets, and flyers. A toolkit of training materials can also be created. This will help the nurses understand how they can change the shifts and work for 12 hours without getting tired. They can be educated on the importance of teamwork and how it would help them improve the quality of life among the people (Brownson et al., 2018). The primary audiences for the policy are the public health and rural health associations, hospital associations, state associations of the county and city health officials, the State Offices of Rural Health (SORH), federal agencies, caregiver groups, and other organizations. They all have a role to play if nurses continue working for 12 more hours, and they must know if the policy is implemented.

Part 2

Due to the increase in the number of black adolescent girls diagnosed with HIV, research is vital to know how serious the problem is and what may cause it. Evidence-based practice is essential in finding out more about the causes of HIV among black adolescents and its prevalence. A qualitative and quantitative research approach is the best to get more information on the case. Incorporating both approaches would be crucial in creating an understanding of the issue, and it would show its seriousness and the possible ways of dealing with it (Farnsworth, 2019). The qualitative research approach would be used in several ways. It would help determine the attitudes that the black adolescents have toward HIV testing and the lived experiences of those who live with HV. Most adolescents may have mixed attitudes concerning the virus based on what they have been hearing about it and how the people living with the condition have been fairing. Knowing their attitudes would be vital to developing a solution to any challenge they may be facing. It also included a qualitative study of the black adolescents living with HIV-related stigma and discrimination. People with HIV Maybe be stigmatized and discriminated against due to the existing myths concerning the spread of the disease. They may feel like they are not normal human beings due to the disease, which adversely affects their health and how they seek it. It also looked at the acceptability and attitudes of the black adolescents who have tested positive for HIV. The adolescents must have accepted themselves after going through counseling. Knowing this is vital in learning more about the challenge black adolescents face as they seek treatment for the disease. This helps determine whether they have accepted the treatment and what they think about it. Acceptance is a challenging step for adolescents who have discovered that they suffer from the virus. The adolescent mainly gets questions about whether he will get treated completely or die before his time comes. It also becomes a challenge how the adolescent will interact with the others and how he will access the treatment and get educated. The approach also helps in providing a qualitative insight on HV/AIDS from a black adolescent patient's perspective on disclosure and disease.

The case can also be looked at using a quantitative research approach. Quantitative research entails the actual experimental design (Sousa et al., 2007). Evaluation of the quantitative process exists within the community-based HIV/AIDS behavioral intervention among the black adolescents who live with HIV. The approach also helps show the knowledge about HIV/AIDS among black adolescents. It also shows the social key determinants among black adolescents concerning access to HIV/AIDS through counseling, testing, and treatment. Counseling is vital since it helps people understand more about HIV/AIDS and how this may impact their lives. It gives people the courage to go to healthcare centers and get tested and get the proper treatment for this condition. It also shows any sociodemographic factors affecting black adolescents with HIV/AIDS. The level of compliance to HIV/AIDS treatment among the black adolescents with the virus is also assessed. Most adolescents may fear getting counseled, tested, and treated for the virus. This could be due to fear of stigmatization and society's existing myths concerning HV/AIDS. Society thinks people with HIV/AIDS do not get treated and die prematurely, which is not the case. The quantitative approach would help the adolescents learn about HIV/AIDS and what is medically accepted concerning this virus. After receiving their status, the treatment becomes more manageable, and the adolescents learn to love themselves and live like normal human beings.
