Research Paper Ideas for Nursing?

[aismail3]

Hi:

I'm currently a nursing student taking an English course. I have to start working on my final assignment for this course. I have to right a non-biased research paper with just information about a topic (both pros and cons), and then I have to write an argumentative paper about it where I argue for either side. The thing is my teacher wants us to choose a topic from our major (mine is nursing).

Does anyone have any suggestions? I don't want a huge controversial topic which will be hard to narrow down. I want a simple topic, something like why should nurses do X and not Y, and so on. I want something that is not so confusing for someone not in the nursing field.

Thank you.

And I want to stress that I'm only looking for possible suggestions, I'm not asking anyone to do type my two papers for me.

Should a patient come to a medical appointment alone or with a trusted friend or family member? Pros and cons: do your research and write her up!

At home births VS hospital births. Lots of great info and just enough controversy to create a really good paper but not so much that you will be overwhelmed.

Two good suggestions. But, I think the second one is more suitable for my paper.

I'll see how my initial researching goes and I'll let you guys know what I decide on.

Thanks!

I also have a paper to write this semester. I am reseaching the pros and cons of electronic health records (EHR). We are not allowed to use any medical journals, only nursing journals as references. I have found quite a few sources already, so I know the information is out there. Good Luck on your paper.:typing
