Help for a Nursing research topic

Well have you seen anything that you say isn't there a better solution or that doesn't make sense to me; I think _____ would be better. Then go from there honestly sometimes the simplest things can make the BIGGEST impact.

We're not here to do your homework for you.

What have you seen during clinicals?

Wasn't asking for anyone to do my homework for me. What i've seen in clinical is things such as the hand washing stations not being in the appropriate places etc. but these topics have already been chosen. Another topic might be how we have to wake patients up at night to take vital signs and such...it just seems like i really want them to get their sleep but waking them up seems to be what most nurses do at night...so could there be a better solution? Other than that I haven't really seen too much around that i see as a problem that could actually be changed and improved upon. So again I wasn't asking for anyone to 'do my homework' just looking for some brainstorming type of ideas. Thanks.

So if you don't like how they are woken up at night, what do you think would be better? I agree sleep is so important in healing and we certainly don't provide it in a hospital situation, what would you suggest? Are you talking for vitals and medications? I know I preferred to be woken for meds I want to know what was being put into my IV.

You know I saw on a med website an article about rewards for those who wash their hands...this includes EVERYONE but primarily focused on doctors. The article said they were a big microorganism transmitter from patient to patient. Did you witness anything like that. I'm sure people didn't wash their hands every time or follow precautions every time (ie ripping a finger off of a glove to start an IV or a blood draw.) I would go basic very very basic. Sometimes those are the things that we forget first!
