Faculty Comments:
I have included some links from the course site for assistance with APA. There are many parts of your SA report that indicate material taken directly from other sources without appropriate citation such as direct verbiage. I believe this to be an issue with APA errors rather than plagiarism. Please rewrite the assessment and highlight your changes to reflect credit to the sources. For instance “In the wake of a global nursing shortage, maldistribution of the health workforce, increasing healthcare costs and expanding workload, it has become imperative to examine the role of nurse managers leadership styles on their staffs outcomes.” This is taken directly from the article.

You may want to review your SA report with your coach for guidance as well in understanding the report as I will have to report future concerns as an academic honesty breach.
Please use headers per APA guidelines to assist with flow of the assessment.
