MUST be from a nursing intervention and nursing scope of practice approach. Medications, lab/ x-ray testing, or other items requiring provider orders are not nursing.

Topics that would require changes in staffing are not within the scope of this paper. Your Policy is evidence-based and requires references from your evidence table and summary and will use the template found in the CANVAS assignment. Attach your appendices to the policy document.
The document requires a title page, policy content, references, and tables according to APA student paper format. You must upload in one word document.

Poster Development Guidelines
Use the provided template for the Poster in Canvas. Complete each area considering the guidelines for posters below. You must have content in each area of the poster as designated. You will be including more than policy content. You need to have a measurable goal to determine effectiveness. The implementation plan must include a brief timeline, resources, stakeholders, how to overcome barriers, and dissemination method. The poster is attached to the policy assignment.
GUIDELINES for quality posters:
Prepare your e-poster as an electronic version replicating what a physical poster would look like.
No animations or embedded videos are permitted.
Use PowerPoint to prepare your e-poster. Your e-poster should be created on a single slide (one slide only). Template provided in CANVAS. Save as a PDF to submit in the assignment.
Use the headings in the template. These are key features for understanding the data presented.
Text and legends for figures should be short. Make sure to use large, clear, easy-to-read print for text and legends.
The use of color adds emphasis and draws interest to the presentation
Seek simplicity; keep text to a minimum and avoid redundancies.
Don’t overuse, bold fonts and colors.
Facts should be single phrases or words and citations indicated on slides (in small font).
Define unfamiliar or complex terms as simply as possible.
Use pictorial or graphic illustrations to clarify and enhance a message. Figures and tables should cover approximately 50 percent of the poster area.
Use a consistent font throughout.
Use a minimal amount of punctuation. Avoid abbreviations and acronyms where possible, especially in the conclusions.
The viewer should be able to grasp the total message in five minutes.
Use your references from the policy.
Convert the PowerPoint file to a pdf file to upload.
POSTER TEMPLATE – You can move around some of the headings and rename some of the headings. Just remember that the guts of this assignment require the minimum content from the headings on the poster. Again – DO NOT CHANGE the Hospital Name: POSTER TEMPLATE NUR 4165-2-1.pptx
