Clinical Scenario
Clinical Scenario:The healthcare team at a university-based community clinic is interested in addressing a sudden increase of illicit substance-use among community dwellers. The clinic is staffed with Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and Certified Nurse-Midwives (CNMs) serving the needs of the community. Each member of the healthcare team will address substance-misuse prevention and screening as it relates to a specific population (i.e., Adolescents, Adults, Pregnant Women). As a member of the healthcare team that cares for adolescents primarily, you will conduct a limited search of the most current evidence to address a clinical question. After completing the search and the appraisal of the evidence you are expected to provide a brief presentation of the findings to the healthcare team.
PICO:In adolescents, how does a web-based motivational intervention compared to screening alone impact substance use?
Population:Adolescents
Intervention:Web-based motivational intervention
Comparison: Screening alone
Outcome:Substance use
A rationale and “answer” must be provided for each item. Students whose rationales show evidence of critical thinking will score higher than students who simply give a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer, or a response that says “Yes, the views of the target population were sought. They were also considered.” Such an answer, while technically two sentences, is simply parroting the question and gives the reader no additional information on how the objective was met.
