Health Policy

Begin to type the body of your paper here. Use as many paragraphs as needed to cover the content appropriately. Often the content can be guided by the assignment’s grading rubric and the assignment guidelines. The best practice for constructing a paragraph is to build each one using the MEAL Plan format. The four components of the MEAL Plan paragraph are (a) M ain idea (only one per paragraph), (b) E vidence (scholarly reference citation, experience, etc.), (c) A nalysis (discussion or explanation of the main idea and the evidence), and (d) L ink (connect to the main idea, the paper’s topic, or the next paragraph’s content). Note that the L ink component may not always be needed or used.

Role of the Professional Nurse in Health Policy

When required by the paper’s content or the assignment guidelines, use a level 2 heading to organize the ideas or material within the level 1 heading’s section. Each paragraph within the section should conform to the MEAL Plan format.

Action Plan for Nurses’ Involvement in Health Policy

Conclusion

Papers should end with a conclusion or summary. The assignment directions will specify which is required; if not specified, use the heading, “Conclusion.” The conclusion should be concise and contain no new information or details. The best conclusions will recap the paper’s purpose, reflecting the purpose statement in the introduction. Conclusions will also remind the reader of the paper’s organization (or mini-outline from the introduction). Typically, it will draw major conclusions from the body of your paper and summarize the importance of the topic.

No matter how much space remains on the page, the references always start on a separate page. In most Microsoft Word programs, you can insert a page break after the conclusion so that the references will begin on a new page. One easy way to do this is to press “CTRL + Enter” simultaneously after the conclusion is finished.
