Literature Search Assignment
Remember because this assignment is asking you to examine your practice and nursing interventions you would use in caring for a patient you have encountered it will be written in first person.
It is totally acceptable to write in the first person in an APA Style paper. If you did something, say, I did ittheres no reason to hide your own agency by saying the author [meaning you] did X or to convolute things by using the passive X was done [meaning done by you].
