Discussion: Response to peer 2

Question: Response to this peer 2 discussion post below with at least one original peer-reviewed article within the last 5 years. It can be 2 paragraphs or more. N.B. After reading your assignments, I would like to offer some feedback. Please refer to your APA Manual for proper APA style writing. In APA, you make a statement that verified in the literature and cite. Avoid making your posts article reviews. I am not looking for a summary of an article. I am looking for new ideas to a topic from peer-reviewed articles. If you rehash and reiterate something that was already stated in a post or something basic that we all already know, then you will not gain points. Do not state whether you agree or not. I am not interested in your opinions; I would rather you write something interesting. You are not writing social media and opinion pieces. Your posts should be free of bias and opinion. Avoid adjectives like "crucial" and "critical" etc. because in APA, those words must be defined, and because they seem opinionated and biased. Merely state findings and facts. Avoid exaggerated comments to your peers like "that was excellent." Just thank them and write your contribution. If your posts are just repeats of nothing new and filling up white space, then you will not gain points. I do not like fluff. Provider Attitude Evidence-based studies have demonstrated the clinical utility of measurement-based care (Oslin et al., 2019). Measurement-based care offers an objective benchmark, improves efficiency of care, quality of care, and patient outcomes (Oslin et al., 2019). Despite the evidence supporting these benefits, its use is dependent on selection bias attributable to providers’ attitudes toward these tools (Oslin et al., 2019). Veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are a patient population that can be affected by provider attitudes toward treatments or aspects of care, such as the utilization of shared decision making (Chen et al., 2021). Again, evidence-based practice supports the benefits of shared decision making, but provider attitudes or beliefs may limit use of provider-patient shared collaboration, which can lead to missed opportunities to reach difficult-to-engage veterans (Chen et al., 2021). It is also interesting that the provider’s attitude towards specific treatments can be influenced by their level of confidence and familiarity with a treatment (Finley et al., 2020). Collegiate students are educated on the utility and need of evidence-based practice as students transition into clinical practice. Yet as mentioned, provider attitudes toward certain tools influence decision-making and may unconsciously deter objectivity through selection bias, and subsequently impact the quality of patient care (Oslin et al., 2019). Providers should strive to place equal effort into trainings involving learning opportunities to develop the skills to identify and mitigate personal attitudes that may negatively impact patient care (Marcelin et al., 2019). Some of these skills include self-reflection, team debriefings, interprofessional collaboration of patient care, and self-evaluations (Marcelin et al., 2019). References Chen, J. A., Matson, T.
