This semester in Global Health you will choose one country on which to focus most of your writing assignments. The purpose of the annotated bibliography is to help you identify appropriate information sources about the country youll be exploring for your upcoming assignments. The annotated bibliography assignment is an individual assignment, and should include 10 sources. These 10 sources should include peer-reviewed journal articles, as well as reports from governmental agencies (e.g. CDC, your countrys ministry of health), UN agencies (e.g. WHO, UNICEF), and nongovernmental/nonprofit organizations (e.g. Gates Foundation, Marie Stopes International). These 10 sources must include 3 peer-reviewed journal articles and 2 government documents (e.g. guidelines, reports, statistical summaries, etc.). These sources should NOT include encyclopedia entries (e.g. Encyclopedia Britannica, Wikipedia), or online forums (e.g. Reddit, Expat Focus).
For each source in your annotated bibliography, please include:

1) A reference, formatted for an APA-style bibliography
2) A brief paragraph (3-5 sentences) describing the source and how you anticipate it being helpful for your health disparities and healthcare system assignments.

Notes:
*You do not have to use all the sources you identify in your papersthe purpose of this assignment is to help you get a picture of what information is out there (or not out there!). If you struggle to find 10 credible sources related to your country, you may want to consider changing countries before your first paper is due.
*The resources provided in the Writing and Formatting References folder will help you create APA-style references

Purpose:
To explore the metaparadigm concepts of nursing (i.e., nursing, person, environment, and health) from your personal perspective and explore personal and professional values.

Instructions:
Address all of the questions/criteria below and the other items outlined in the Grading Rubric to ensure your assignment meets all the criteria for this assignment.

Introduction
Provide a brief, general discussion of your personal philosophy of nursing (such as its purpose, relevance and/or importance) and the purpose of the paper. Content must be paraphrased. Never copy/paste from a source even if you give credit.
Personal Philosophy
Thoroughly describe each major concept in the metaparadigm (i.e., nursing, person, environment, and health) as they are incorporated within your own personal philosophy. You may use a nursing theorist from your book or other source as a guide.

Provide a brief and concise, clinical example of how each concept in the personal philosophy is demonstrated within your own nursing practice, i.e., how do you incorporate your beliefs about nursing, health, environment, and person into your nursing practice on a routine basis? For example, if you believe the person is composed of body/mind/spirit, describe the exact ways you apply that belief in your care.
Values Clarification
Using the ‘Values Clarification Exercise’ on page 155 of the 7th edition of the Friberg text, select your top 3 values of importance to you and discuss how they affect your interactions with clients.

Provisions and Impact
Discuss at least two of the provisions in the ANA’s Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements you think you could improve at incorporating into your practice.

Explain the impact this improvement would have on your practice.
Conclusion
Logical closure to the full scope of ideas presented by reemphasizing the main points of the paper and/or providing suggestions. Content must be paraphrased. Never copy/paste from a source even if you give credit. This should not be an editorial commentary on nursing but rather a summation of the main points of the paper.
