propose one realistic recommendation for clinical nursing practice.

This assignment comprises of two interlinked sections:
1. An integrative literature review (academic enquiry) on a contemporary researchable clinical problem of your choosing which relates to your field of nursing. Having chosen your research question you must find between 5 and 8 research articles which answer your question. These research articles must include primary sources of research; however, you may include a maximum of 2 secondary sources of research (literature reviews). After thematically analysing the findings from your 5 – 8 research articles you will generate 2-4 theme headings which answer your question. A minimum of two articles must support each theme. The research methods of all 5 – 8 articles must be critically appraised at some point in the results section of your assignment.
2. The ‘practice enquiry’ component requires you to propose one realistic recommendation for clinical nursing practice. This recommendation must be informed by some of the findings discussed in the results section of your assignment. Having rationalised your recommendation, you must critically consider the impact on patients/service users or carers. Finally, you need to analyse the steps involved in implementing your recommendation into one clinical setting. Analysis should illustrate consideration of relevant barriers and facilitators.
