Week 6 Discussion

Discussion
Greetings, Dr. Pampkin, the discussion question for this week is quite interesting and
enthralling. I, unlike others am not significant researcher and disliked researching for articles
and papers to read as it is quite difficult to acquire. However, few years ago I had come
across google scholar, which I used for searching articles and book as it was the most easy
and simple way.
As I am learning about new sources and places where these articles are also available and can
be derived without any nuisance, I am using other resources like Walden University Library.
I had chosen the article “Why (Not to) choose Psychiatric mental health nursing” as per the
suggestion as it seemed quite fascinating and had gauged my attention. The arena chosen is
avoided by most of the nurses but in contemporary times the problem of mental health is
widely displayed especially in young individuals. As opined by Noh, Kim and Kim (2013),
because of the modern demand the profession of psychiatric nurses needs to be extensively
adopted and is a unique career option with lot of scope to acquire knowledge and experience.
It is important to be aware of various types of online database for emergency. However,
Walden library is used to acquire credible articles and is quite easily accessible (McAuliffe,
Bostain and Witchel, 2019). The students encounter huge variety of database and can access
those for obtaining additional knowledge and information on nursing. The library provides a
wide range of resources to the students that helps them to retrieve and locate roust research.
The most interesting part about the source is that if there are any glitches during the research,
you can easily contact the librarian who will respond to your concern in a very friendly and
effective manner (McIntyre‐Hite, et. al. 2018).

1. Helen Brunson- The discussion done is precise and easily understandable. The facts
and figures provided in the discussions makes it more accurate and efficient. It would
have been more informative if you would have written about the benefits of the
library and shared your personal experience. I recommend to make use of the library
efficiently and if encounter any problems during the search, the librarian will
immediately help out with the research work. I personally had encountered with
problem while searching for papers related to Psychiatric nursing. However, it was
easy to contact the librarian which made my search flow easy and accurate.
2. Jennifer Whelan- As opined by Butryn, Bryant, Marchionni and Sholevar (2017),
there is a shortage in the field of psychiatric nursing which is impacting the current
scenario. I would like to suggest you to try Walden Library as it is a great source for
attaining article that will help you to acquire adequate knowledge and learn more
about the topic. The data base is very easily accessible and is credible than the other
online sources. By trying the Walden University library, you will have a great
experience and will been keen to learn new things.
