Journals such as American Nurse Today, Nursing 2016, RN, and Nurse Week are not quality peer reviewed nursing journals for evidenced based practice and should not be used for this assignment. If in doubt about whether your journal is appropriate, check with your faculty since articles that are not nursing directed will not be accepted for credit. . 7.All papers will be turned electronically using Canvas.
