Many social workers attempt to implement an evidence-based practice that seems to be strongly supported by research, only to become frustrated or confused when their efforts do not yield the same positive results as the research. This discrepancy can occur because they failed to recognize the differences between conditions in their practice environment and the conditions of the study. Moreover, they may have failed to consider and adequately plan for issues that arise during implementation.

To prepare for this Assignment, using the resources for evidence-based practices, identify an evidence-based practice that may be applicable to your field of practice of working with veterans with PTSD. Review two research articles demonstrating the effectiveness of the evidence-based practice. Note any similarities or differences between the conditions in which the evidence-based practice was implemented in the study and the conditions in which you plan to implement it.

By Day 7

Submit a 4- to 5-page paper that analyzes the implementation of the evidence-based practice in your field of practice to determine if you can expect similar results to the research. The paper should include the following:

• A description of the evidence-based practice that you selected including:
  • The population for which the evidence-based practice is intended
  • The problems for which the evidence-based practice is intended to address
  • A summary of the evidence from the research articles that demonstrate the evidence-based practice’s effectiveness
• An explanation of any differences between the conditions of the study and the conditions on your practice. Explain the potential impact these differences could have on successful implementation.
• A description of the steps that would be required to implement the evidence-based practice including:
  • Any factors that would support each step and how you would leverage them
  • Any factors that would limit or hinder each step and how you would mitigate them
• A conclusion that includes:
  • Anticipated results of the implementation in your practice setting
  • An explanation of whether they will be similar or different from the research results from the articles

Is emotional labour a minimum requirement in the workplace, or a behaviour that both male and female employees are motivated to engage in and earn a reward for in Western businesses? Illustrate your answer with examples and issues drawn from the real-life Case study of the President’s Club scandal in 2018.

Look at the document ‘question’, please.

Try to choose sources that are no more than 1 or 2 pages, otherwise you may face difficulty in summarizing your information.

Make sure you choose a source that has either Introduction, Body, Conclusion (Opinion-Text type) or Introduction/Body (Fact-Text type).

It is not possible to do a summary of only part of a source or from selected pages. Choose a source that is similar to the MTE, a Reading of 400-500 words which you can fit into models of ‘summary’ taught during the course.

What is a Solar Power Plant? (needs more detail than just a simple definition)

How is Solar Power is converted to electricity

Where the process happens in Saudi Arabia

What is the future plan for Solar power in Saudi Arabia?

Why is this future plan important?

Who is responsible for this future plan?

When is this expected to happen?(vision 2030).

What is the expected outcome

*Background need to be a separate section and should not be part of the Introduction*

*Only Facts should appear in the Background. Do not start answering the question here*

Narrow down the topic

Try to find a topic that is connected in some way to Saudi Arabia.

Think about your topic in terms of Vision 2030 (what will happen in future).

Other ideas could be Neom (new green city to be built in Saudi Arabia), IoT (Internet of Things) and GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council).

Make a title for your report

Decide what will be the focus of your report- Cause/Effect, Compare/Contrast, Problem/Solution or Advantage and Disadvantages.

Case Study

Mrs. Cason brings her 10-year-old child to the clinic stating my son “just isn’t breathing right, he doesn’t want to play, he just sits on my lap or lays on the couch, and this happens all the time.” Appearance of both mother and child is disheveled. The child’s wheezing can be heard across the room. When asked if her son is better at any certain time of the day the mother responds: “It’s like this all the time and has been for the past year, we just don’t come to the doctor because we don’t have any money.”

Mrs. Cason’s son was diagnosed of asthma.
