The NURS 519 Week 2 method, step by step
Answer the prompt in one sentence first
Decide your answer to the prompt before you write. A clear thesis is the backbone of a short essay.
Plan three supporting points
List the points that support the answer, usually two to four, each tied to the course material from Strategies for End of Life Care.
Develop each point with evidence
One paragraph per point: claim, support (Outside resources, cited and referenced in current APA), explanation.
Engage the course material directly
Use the course's own terms and sources. The grader is checking that you learned the week's material.
Conclude with the so-what
End by saying why the answer matters for practice or for the field, in two or three sentences.
Check length and format
Confirm the length (Each answer at least 150 words) and current APA format before submitting.

A topic angle that works
Answer each question in its first sentence, then support it with a specific source. Where a question invites opinion, give it, but make the source carry the reason.
Model paragraph with notes
An original paragraph written by our desk to show the register that earns full rubric credit. It is study material: learn the moves, then write your own.
Hospice and palliative care differ mainly in timing and eligibility.1 Palliative care can begin at diagnosis and continue alongside curative treatment, while hospice under the Medicare benefit requires a physician to certify a prognosis of six months or less if the illness runs its usual course, and the patient elects comfort care instead of curative treatment.2 Many patients would benefit from palliative care far earlier than they receive it, a gap documented across serious illnesses.3
