Need some ideas please !

Can you be more specific? Asking for an example of a nursing care issue” is incredibly vague.

That's all the information I was given.

How about the Cytochrome P450 system and all of the interactions that nurses have to work around when giving meds.

Bedside manner comes to mind. Professionalism. Respect given to every patient. Privacy/HIPPA issues. Hope these ideas help. They were just ones that came to my mind from the start that can be issues

exposure to noise on physiological and psychological outcomes in hospitalized patients

you could narrow the previous suggestion of p450 and look at just CYP-2D6 polymorphism's effect on pain management

confidentiality ?

What kind of nursing care issues are you referring to? I'm not sure what you mean when you say it cannot be a medical issue. Here is what comes to mind:

Understaffing issues

Moral and Ethical dilemmas - such as, treating criminals, euthanasia and DNR orders, religion conflicts

Hope this helps.

safe staffing issues (is it beneficial to assign an ICU RN 3 pts, med-surg RNs 10 pts etc......... is mandatory OT an acceptable staffing practice?)

compassion fatigue (how do issues e.g. medical futility affect nurses?)

professional boundaries (no, you are not the only nurse who can take compassionate care of Mr. Needypatient)

cultural competence (nursing texts, in my experience, are painfully simplistic on this topic)

self-care (yes, you do have time to pee; no, you shouldn't have to skip lunch. Asceticism does not make you a better nurse -- it makes you a hungry/crabby/incontinent nurse)

Customer service expectations (does research show that a happy pt is a well pt? Is it EBP to ask "how high" when a pt says "jump"?)

Staffing. Patient to nurse ratios. I could write a book on how screwed up it can be
