  3. analyze and utilize health data, research findings, and information technology for evidenced-based nursing practice;
  4. engage in ethical reasoning and actions to promote advocacy, collaboration, and social justice;
  5. provide culturally sensitive nursing care in health promotion, risk reduction, and disease prevention;
  6. integrate knowledge of health care policy, finance, and regulatory environments in the care of diverse populations;
  7. use clinical reasoning and decision-making skills to provide safe quality care; and
