Good day professor, i just need want to know your availability, because this course is for 14weeks. 
Please feel free to contact me if you need more informations regarding the assignment below. Thank you 

The first step of the evidence-based practice process is to evaluate a nursing practice environment to identify a nursing problem in the clinical area. When a nursing problem is discovered, the nurse researcher develops a clinical guiding question to address that nursing practice problem.
For this discussion question, you will create a clinical guiding question known as a PICOT question. The PICOT question must be relevant to a nursing practice problem (coordination of health care, assessment, education, patient support, trauma prevention, recovery, health screenings, etc.).
After reviewing the relevant topic materials:
Select a nursing practice problem of interest.
Develop a PICOT question using the template and example provided below.
Identify two articles, one qualitative and one quantitative, related to the problem of interest. Provide an APA-formatted reference for each article, and explain how each relates to your PICOT question. Be sure to identify which article is qualitative and which article is quantitative. These articles may be used in this week’s assignment.
PICOT question intervention format:
In_______________(Population), how does _______________ (Intervention) compared to _______________ (Comparison) affect _______________ (Outcome) within______________(Time, optional)?
Example: In critically ill patients in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) (P), how do daily 2% chlorhexidine cloth baths (I) compared to daily disposable non-antimicrobial cloth baths (C) affect the incidence of health care-associated infections (HAIs) (O)?
In responses to peers, provide feedback related to peers’ PICOT questions and their associated articles.
Initial discussion question posts should be a minimum of 200 words and include at least two references cited using APA format.

Complete this Cultural Diversity Awareness Questionnaire, then answer the following questions. You do not have to share your score from the questionnaire; only share your introspective thoughts. Record your answers on a Word document.
One purpose of this questionnaire is to identify your attitudes and perspectives regarding cultural diversity. Did your results surprise you? Why or why not? Give examples.
How might your values, beliefs, and assumptions affect your ability to support others? Give examples.
Describe how your cultural awareness has evolved in nursing school since caring for clients. Give examples.
What leadership-specific goals could you make related to cultural awareness or diversity and inclusion? List and discuss at least 2 goals.
What would we gain (in healthcare) if we were more diverse and inclusive? Discuss.
SCORE 
If your score is 100–129, you are in the high range.
This self-assessment is designed to measure your beliefs and behavior regarding cultural diversity and
inclusion. A higher score on the assessment indicates that you are acutely aware of prejudice and bias,
and that you are very aware of the impact of your behavior on others. Individuals who score high relate
to others in ways that value diversity. A lower score on the assessment suggests that you are unaware
of prejudice and bias, and that you are not fully aware of the impact of your biased behavior on others.
Individuals who score low communicate with others in ways that do not value diversity  
“Nurses must develop cultural competence to deliver care that meets standards of culturally congruent care…Cultural competence involves knowing yourself and examining your own values, attitudes, beliefs, and prejudices. It entails keeping an open mind and trying to see the world from a different cultural perspective.
“[Nurses must] respect differences among people, recognizing that every group has its strengths and weaknesses…[They must] learn to communicate effectively while being mindful of nonverbal communication such as body movements, use of personal space, and gestures, [and] be resourceful and creative in modifying nursing interventions in culturally competent ways. Consider your nursing actions carefully when interacting with a patient from another culture” (Williams, 2022, p. 193).
Take this opportunity to practice introspection and examine your own beliefs about cultural diversity.

Donald Mann, a 32-year-old divorced man, is hospitalized for uncontrollable aggressive impulses. On admission, there is no indication of thought disorders, hallucinations, or depressed affect. Mr. Mann is angry because he feels “forced” to admit himself voluntarily to the hospital. His boss stated that if he did not admit himself, Mr. Mann would be fired from his job. Mr. Mann had threatened a fellow history teacher and later assaulted him. The patient states, “I was only arguing a historical point and got carried away.” He smiles and winks his eye as he is relating the course of events to the nurse, Ms. Burke.
Mr. Mann states that he is unable to finish writing a book because his third wife divorced him. When asked about his childhood, he comments, “Fighting is synonymous with being a street kid.” He has a history of wife abuse and frequent barroom fights. For the past year, he has been employed as a teacher of history in a private college. Previously, he held numerous teaching positions in several states. Mr. Mann states that he enjoys teaching and especially likes the students.
On the unit, Mr. Mann is generally cooperative. However, on two occasions, he violates the rules of the unit. Once, he is found with a bottle of alcohol (“I was celebrating one of our famous residents”). In the second incident, he threatens to harm another patient on the unit. On both occasions, his response is a glib “I’m sorry.” The female staff usually have no difficulty dealing with him, but the male staff generally complain about him.
On the third day after admission, Mr. Mann threatens another patient. His infractions of the rules and his aggressiveness are disrupting the unit. The unit coordinator asks Ms. Burke to write a comprehensive care plan for him. Ms. Burke, who admitted him to the unit, has spent time with him over the past few days. She often feels flattered by his attention. He has told her that he finds her to be “the best nurse on the unit.” That afternoon, his case is to be presented at a staff conference.
During the meeting, each female member reports that Mr. Mann has stated that she is his favorite. He would also “tell tales” to each staff member about the other staff members. The female staff would often do special favors for Mr. Mann (e.g., getting him cigarettes, the newspaper, or candy). The male staff members find him argumentative, infuriating, and contemptuous of them. They try to avoid him as much as possible. It is clear that almost everyone has strong positive or negative reactions to Mr. Mann. During the meeting, many of the female staff feel annoyed and angry at being manipulated. The staff decide together on goals and a plan of approach.

Questions
One of the staff’s key observations of Mr. Mann is his use of manipulation. Which array of disorders is Mr. Mann’s behavior most frequently associated with?
Manipulation can differ from one disorder to the next. Compare and contrast different types of manipulative behaviors seen in patients with personality disorders. How do these help pinpoint Mr. Mann’s psychological needs?
The term “antisocial” is included in Mr. Mann’s description. What behaviors help indicate this diagnosis?
