In this component of the white paper, you will compile the evidence from your literature sources to include a written, fully evidence-backed analysis of the
current state regarding your chosen topic.
Your analysis needs to focus on evidence-based information resources. You have already gathered eight sources and assessed for credibility. You will use
this week to write your literature review. You will gather other sources as you identify gaps in what you have – just as you would need to do in your workplace.
A thorough scan of the evidence base is critical to writing in the health professions.
Some additional tips on writing this section of your white paper:
Do not share opinions in this section. You will have a space to share your opinions and to try to convince others of the merits of your recommendation. When
reviewing the literature, you must be an objective reporter of what is being said.
Write this section in a formal tone using third-person pronouns. Imagine that a Board of Trustees or a Congressional panel could look at this. As a
representative of a healthcare organization, you want to build credibility for yourself and your organization.
