What NURS 668 covers
The only textbook is the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, read chapter by chapter alongside the capstone stages. Forum threads run 300 words with two replies of 100 words, and the capstone moves from a list of ten possible journal articles to an eight-to-ten page literature review that includes at least one article from a Christian or biblically oriented journal, then a five-to-seven page education program and drafts of 13 to 17 pages with 10 to 15 references.
The final draft carries a title page, abstract, introduction, literature review, description of the education project, conclusion, references, tables and appendices, and the literature review, education program and final draft are checked through SafeAssign.
This capstone course is designed for health/wellness majors who are in the last semester of their Health Services graduate degree program. With guidance from the course professor, students will develop a health-oriented educational program, based on current research.

Where NURS 668 papers lose points
Capstone papers in NURS 668 lose points when the review walks through its sources one at a time and never builds a case, when the education program does not follow from what the review found, when the Christian journal source is missing, and when APA errors run through headings, tables and references.
Using a NURS 668 sample well
Read each sample for how one wellness problem is carried from evidence to a teaching program and then to a finished scholarly paper. Your own topic and population come from your program; these pages show the scale, structure and APA form each stage expects.
