NURSING: EVIDENCED-BASED PRACTICE PROJECT

This assignment requires incorporating suggestions from feedback:-

You have described an important problem. I would recommend that you look at your outcomes and simplify a bit. For example, how do you measure pervasiveness? What about weight loss, HgA1C, cholesterol etc (whatever measurable outcomes you might see in the literature) In addition, your comparison might need to be looked at a bit. You might want to compare standard treatment or you can use universal protocol as long as everybody is looking at the same protocol.

Please see the attached project
