Remember to set up your Word document (File, Options, Proofing &#8211; check Grammar &amp; Refinements or Grammar &amp; More) for APA style. It does not catch everything, it is not always correct, but it is helpful and free. This information will be incorporated into your improvement proposal, so this Discussion Board posting showcases your formal writing skills. Once you are done in the Word document, copy and paste it into the Discussion Board. As in Week 2, I will transfer your work into a Word document and send it back to you with my suggestions once it is graded.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">APA observations\/suggestions\/tips from the previous Discussion Board posts (APA 7th ed. page # in parentheses):<\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 25px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Oxford commas (p. 155) \u2013 any series of 3 or more needs a comma before the conjunction (e.g., red, white, and blue; the patient checked in, sat down, and waited)<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Review formatting of references:\n<ul style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 25px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">APA manual or APA Blog are good sources.

If the URL contains EBSCO, Chaminade, or [your name], it is a unique address from a search engine and cannot be used by others. The URL must link any reader to your source.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Verb\/subject agreement. The word, data, is plural \u2013 data are, data were, but not data is.<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Numbers \u2013 spell out all numbers under 10 BUT use numerals when that number represents time (1 hour), statistics, scores, numbers before units of measurement, number after noun . . . (p. 178-179).<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Direct quotes \u2013 only use when absolutely necessary and cannot reasonably be stated another way. Part of academic writing is being able to synthesize what others have said.<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Statements of fact \u2013 must always be followed by a citation. If 80% of Native Hawaiians are at risk for diabetes type 2, then cite the expert who published that fact. If your paper states that something is a major healthcare issue, then cite your source(s).<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Shifting verb tense. The verb tense within a paragraph should be consistent (past, present, or future). If describing a progression where the verb tense needs to shift, then only go forward or backward; do not jump around.<\/li>\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Typically, when writing about research or other publications, write in past tense. Since it takes approximately 1 year to get an article to print and 2 years to get a book to print, what authors stated in their publication may have changed since the information was published. Unless you are sure you are stating current scientific beliefs, use past tense.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This assingment is for an Epidemiology\/Statistics Nursing Graduate Course.&nbsp; This is the link to the MIPS measure&nbsp;https:\/\/mdinteractive.com\/mips_quality_measure\/2023-mips-quality-measure-305 Most of you have identified a measurement that must be reported by providers to an outside agency (e.g., CMS, AHRQ, insurance carrier).
