Select a topic related to the topic of healthcare that interests you (ie. Paediatrics, emergency,
mental health, community health) and identify an issue in nursing practice in this field. Conduct a
search for literature related to this issue, and provide a brief overview of the evidence. Please be

• Surgical settings: Is post-operative pain assessment by nurses effective?
Introduce your paper and provide some objectives. Define the issue you will be discussing. Make
sure you provide a search strategy – as discussed in lectures, searches need to be repeatable and
believable! Describe the evidence you have found. It may be better to do this in themes to make the
structure of your paper stronger. Finally, provide a discussion/conclusion that draws this evidence
together to support change in the issue you have identified.
