[Solved]: Hello Rouge, I think that your discussion assignment…

Hello Rouge, I think that your discussion assignment was very thorough about the age considerations for younger and older patients. I, also, researched the same topic and tended to steer my focus toward pediatric focus. For one, I appreciated that you referenced the lack of research in pediatric drug safety. As nurses, much/most of our practice is all on evidence-based practice, as it is with medicine. Emphasizing the lack of research in a profession that is based on research really speaks volumes about where our priorities should lie. Overall, your paper is very well written. Your citations are correct, and your articles are from a reliable source. However, I would have liked to see more about the geriatric/older adult population. I felt that most of your article was based on pediatrics, and while it is a very important subject, older adults are also a major part of age-based drug considerations. In addition, I think you may have missed the part about why you chose the topic that you did. Do you want to be a pediatric nurse or have you had personal experience with age-based patient care with regards to drugs? Besides that, you did a great job! Keep up the good work and keep working hard in the nursing program! 🙂
