Capstone Change Project Evaluation And Dissemination

by | Feb 15, 2022 | Project Management

Health care is rapidly changing which means there is a high demand for healthcare practitioners and health organizations to constantly evolve to provide the best quality care. Evidence based practice is applying available evidence with clinical knowledge and expertise while considering patients unique needs and personal preferences (University of Utah, 2021). By using EBP into our daily practice we create a high potential to optimize our patients outcomes as well as healthcare all together. This because it helps us nurses determine an effective course of action for care delivery.

Personally, I think that nurses who have their BSN have a better understanding of EBP. Prior to being in school at GCU, I never took time to research any topics related to my patients. Now I feel that it helps me be a better patient advocate, voice out my concerns or recommendations and have peer-reviewed research to support me.

I will continue to integrate evidence into my practice because it makes me feel confident in my care. I really have a passion for breastfeeding and continuing to do research on this will allow me as a labor and delivery nurse to help my patients and get them the support they need when mine is not enough. Another way I can continue to integrate evidence into my practice is to suggest incorporating EBP into our strip review classes. Each month our perinatologist will go over fetal strips and reviews what could have been done differently. During these classes our International Board-Certified Lactation Consultants can present the most recent up to date breastfeeding information.

Pushing for nurses to obtain more breastfeeding education will be a challenge, but if this is not possible all together, it can be broken down into small educational workshops, until nurses feel they can portray their education onto patients. Another obstacle would be timing and being short staffed and unfortunately when this is an issue the strip review class is postponed. To minimize this impact, this class can be scheduled twice or when there is a low census.

Discuss why EBP is an essential component of the practice of a BSN-prepared RN. Identify two ways in which you will continue to integrate evidence into your practice and encourage it within your work environment. What obstacles could challenge this plan, and what steps will you take to minimize their impact?

Dante Alighieri played a critical role in the literature world through his poem Divine Comedy that was written in the 14th century. The poem contains Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. The Inferno is a description of the nine circles of torment that are found on the earth. It depicts the realms of the people that have gone against the spiritual values and who, instead, have chosen bestial appetite, violence, or fraud and malice. The nine circles of hell are limbo, lust, gluttony, greed and wrath. Others are heresy, violence, fraud, and treachery. The purpose of this paper is to examine the Dante’s Inferno in the perspective of its portrayal of God’s image and the justification of hell. 

In this epic poem, God is portrayed as a super being guilty of multiple weaknesses including being egotistic, unjust, and hypocritical. Dante, in this poem, depicts God as being more human than divine by challenging God’s omnipotence. Additionally, the manner in which Dante describes Hell is in full contradiction to the morals of God as written in the Bible. When god arranges Hell to flatter Himself, He commits egotism, a sin that is common among human beings (Cheney, 2016). The weakness is depicted in Limbo and on the Gate of Hell where, for instance, God sends those who do not worship Him to Hell. This implies that failure to worship Him is a sin.

God is also depicted as lacking justice in His actions thus removing the godly image. The injustice is portrayed by the manner in which the sodomites and opportunists are treated. The opportunists are subjected to banner chasing in their lives after death followed by being stung by insects and maggots. They are known to having done neither good nor bad during their lifetimes and, therefore, justice could have demanded that they be granted a neutral punishment having lived a neutral life. The sodomites are also punished unfairly by God when Brunetto Lattini is condemned to hell despite being a good leader (Babor, T. F., McGovern, T., & Robaina, K. (2017). While he commited sodomy, God chooses to ignore all the other good deeds that Brunetto did.

Finally, God is also portrayed as being hypocritical in His actions, a sin that further diminishes His godliness and makes Him more human. A case in point is when God condemns the sin of egotism and goes ahead to commit it repeatedly. Proverbs 29:23 states that “arrogance will bring your downfall, but if you are humble, you will be respected.” When Slattery condemns Dante’s human state as being weak, doubtful, and limited, he is proving God’s hypocrisy because He is also human (Verdicchio, 2015). The actions of God in Hell as portrayed by Dante are inconsistent with the Biblical literature. Both Dante and God are prone to making mistakes, something common among human beings thus making God more human.

To wrap it up, Dante portrays God is more human since He commits the same sins that humans commit: egotism, hypocrisy, and injustice. Hell is justified as being a destination for victims of the mistakes committed by God. The Hell is presented as being a totally different place as compared to what is written about it in the Bible. As a result, reading through the text gives an image of God who is prone to the very mistakes common to humans thus ripping Him off His lofty status of divine and, instead, making Him a mere human. Whether or not Dante did it intentionally is subject to debate but one thing is clear in the poem: the misconstrued notion of God is revealed to future generations.
