American Journal of Nursing
Comment 1
One professional journal that I would present my project would be the American Journal of Nursing because this journal contains many peered reviewed articles on issues that many nurses face today. According to the American Journal of Nursing (2018), it is one of the largest and oldest journals that contains information from all over the world. I believe that since it’s available in all parts of the world, it would be perfect for the dissemination of my project because the problem of pressure ulcer development occurs in health care settings all over the world.
The nursing conference that I would choose would be the 47th Global Nursing and Healthcare Education because after reading about its description, I believe that my project would fit well. According to the New York Events List, this conference would take place November 8-9, 2019 in San Francisco CA. I currently live and work in the Bay Area, so the location is not very far away. In the description of the conference, it specified that it “is a platform for nursing students, faculty, deans, researchers, and leaders to collaborate on topics affecting nursing education” (New York Events List, 2018, para 4). I would also be able to present the information through oral and poster presentations. All kinds of nurses with different degrees and level of expertise would be present, which is important because my project has the potential to affect patients in all types of health care settings.

One professional journal that I would present my capstone project idea would be The American Journal of Maternal/Child Nursing. Also, I would like to present my capstone project idea to the Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing. By presenting to both journals would allow the research and information to be spread to a wider range of individuals and patients. This would allow for two different specialties of nursing to expand their knowledge about postpartum depression and how to provide the best patient care possible. These group of professionals and researchers could add to the information or even bring about new options that have not be incorporated yet.
