Cancers in Canada

Utilize a sufficient number of evidence-informed sources to support your posting (e.g., journal articles, reputable materials from health care organizations like best practice guidelines (like the " COLLEGE OF NURSES OF ONTARIO , RNAO, CANADIAN NURSES ASSOCIATION" ), key reports). It is expected to go beyond the use of a text book or the course module content

• Apply your answer (e.g. what your learned from the evidence or the question) to a clinical nursing example either from your own practice or what you think a registered nurse might encounter in practice.

• List your references at bottom of your post in APA format

Quality of Original Responses to Discussion Topics

-Your original responses to discussion topics should demonstrate insight and analysis. A high quality response:

• Utilizes research evidence or evidence-informed literature to support ideas. You don’t regurgitate what is on the online module or a text book, you need to go beyond this and use the literature;

• Demonstrates critical thinking and engagement with the course content and the selected evidence to present a thoughtful response to the questions;

• Identifies the problems or issues and addresses them directly;

• Applies the answer to a specific nursing clinical situation and describes why the content/issue is relevant to registered nurses, patients or epidemiology;

• Supports your position, hypothesis, or conclusion with cited sources;

  • Applies relevant course concepts; and
    • Makes connections to relevant professional, personal, or other real-world experiences, when appropriate.

QUESTION: What are the top 5 cancers in Canada right now? Does this data change according to province (e.g. how does Ontario compare to other provinces in terms of the top 5 cancers). What does this data and the fact that different provinces screen for different cancers mean for Canadians?. Apply your answer (e.g. what your learned from the evidence or the question) to a clinical nursing example either from your own practice or what you think a registered nurse might encounter in practice.
