How NURS 519 Week 8 Questions and Answers 2 is graded
Liberty grades Questions and Answers 2 with the rubric attached to the assignment in Canvas, worth 100 points in the published guide. That is about 10% of the course's 1,010 points. Read the rubric first. Each row is a criterion, and the wording of the highest column is the closest thing you have to a model answer.
Course grades in NURS 519 use Liberty's point scale: an A is 940 to 1010 points of the course total. Missing the length or source minimum usually costs points on several rows at once, which is why the checklist below starts with them.
Timing in the published guide: Each course module/week begins on Monday morning at 12:00 a.m. (ET) and ends on Sunday night at 11:59 p.m. (ET). The final module/week ends at 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Friday. Check the due dates in your Canvas section, which govern.
The NURS 519 Week 8 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
Name the theory, model or reading you are using and apply it; essays that stay general lose the course-knowledge points.
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.

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.
When a dying patient talks about packing for a trip, the nurse should listen for meaning rather than correct him.1 Callanan and Kelley describe travel language as one of the most common ways dying people express awareness that death is near, and they advise asking gentle questions such as "Where are you going?"2 Responding this way lets the patient say what he needs, whether that is permission, reassurance or a visit from someone not yet there.3
