Order Description
Demonstrate the ability to critically review a prepared position statement, analysing its content from both a theoretical and clinical perspective.
Using the following framework will help in providing a structured critique of the position statement
Framework (guide only)
1. Is the position statement structured? Does it have an introduction and a conclusion
that clearly states the position?
2. Does the position statement relate to the topic?
3. Does the position statement demonstrate adequately the links to the National Competency Standards for Registered Nurse?
4. Are the references used to support the position statement current and credible (i.e. evidence), why or why not?
5. Do you think the author eliminated any important information (i.e. evidence) in
stating their position? If so, please refer to these evidence sources in your critique.
6. Remember when giving feedback it must be constructive regardless of whether it is
positive or negative feedback.
Remember that the critique will be assessed against the criterion referenced rubric:
Interpretation: Extensively critiques the content and Insightfully analyses the position taken. Identifies inconsistences (if any) in the position statement
Analysis & Evaluation: Thoroughly analyses assumptions in relation to NMBA competencies for clinical practice, discriminates rationally using reasonable judgment, provides extensive information in support of position or offers alternative view
Evidence: Provides extensive evidence in support of the position statement or provides clarifying evidence if required in support of alternative views. All evidence is from credible sources
Referencing: Accurate use of APA referencing style in all instances. A range of in-text citations has been used
Position Statement: “Advances in Health informatics and telemedicine are providing greater access to healthcare resources”.
The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare [AIHW] (2013) stated that residents in rural areas have shorter lives and higher levels of illness and disease risk factors than those in major cities. Some areas in Australia are disadvantaged in accessing goods and services, educational and employment opportunities and have lower incomes (AIHW, 2013). The number of medical practitioners in remote/rural regions is less than the number of employed medical practitioners in the major cities. In rural areas, there is around 148 fulltime equivalent medical practitioners per 100,000 in population compared to 335 full time equivalent medical practitioners per 100,000 in population in major cities (AIHW, 2008). The major cities have a better ratio of medical practitioner available to them than fellow rural residents. The New South Wales rural doctors network [RDN] (2012) outlined that the Australian government was introducing an approach in improving health services to rural area which involved a trial of advances in health informatics and telemedicine funded by The Australian Department of Health and Ageing from 1rst July 2010 to 30th June 2011. It can be argued that advances in Health informatics and telemedicine are providing greater access to healthcare resources. This will be shown by defining Health informatics and telemedicine, the benefit for the stakeholders particularly those who live in rural areas, as well as looking at the possible disadvantages.
