The application of EBPs in nursing is common in medical care since it assists in finding a solution to an existing chronic condition. I have learned to present relevant medical dispensation to patients with acute diseases, which has reduced costs due to the lowering of hospitalization for these fellows (Tung, 2020). I can handle chronic diseases in patients from a remote zone regularly. For example, I have learned how to draw evidence in understanding the proper provision of oxygen to patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (Masters, 2020). In this case, I can apply randomized controlled trials, personal experience, expert opinions from studies and evidence from the cohort, and explorational case-control studies. Therefore, the course has been enriching to me in terms of implementing EBPs in acute and chronic disease care.
I have learned several skills through NUR 3805, which the University has offered. One of the knowledge areas that I have acquired include the efficacy in communication, evidence-based practice, and application of electronic health records in the delivery of medical services. For example, I am competent in handling COPD using telehealth applications such as HealthLive. Therefore, I am grateful to the faculty for offering the course as a necessity for BSN students.
