(1) What is your essential question and answers?  What is your best answer and why?

What is the best way to ensure a premature baby grows healthy?

1. By introducing the Creating Opportunities for Parent Empowerment program (COPE) informs parents on how to ensure healthy growth.
2. To provide good communication between patients and the NICU staff to help influence the decisions parents make for their babies. 
3. By assuring neonates get the right nutrition they need in order to reach the ideal weight to continue to grow and develop. 

My BEST answer would have to be the Creating Opportunities for Parent Empowerment program (COPE) because it informs parents on how to ensure healthy growth.

(2) What process did you take to arrive at this answer?

I got to my best answer with the help of successful interviews with NICU nurses and also through research. 

(3) What problems did you face?  How did you resolve them?

I had a problem with obtaining research for my first answer. I resolved it by using some of the websites Mrs.Pittman recommended. I also would've wanted to volunteer at a hospital that had an NICU department and would've wished for a NICU nurse mentor, but volunteering at a hospital setting with nurses and different patients was good enough. 

(4) What are the two most significant sources you used to answer your essential question and why?

The two most significant sources to help answer my EQ would probably be all four of my interviews and my mentorship at Casa Colina. Working at a hospital setting helped me understand the foundation of being a nurse and having to work with different patients daily. It showed me how important it is to know how to communicate and interact with patients.
