Critically evaluate the evidence in your review.
Literature Review (Suggested word count 2,500 words). The literature review will create the foundation for your chosen project. Conducting the review will provide you with the opportunity to explore the existing literature and relevant policies that are available. It will also provide you with a new insight into the project area and the opportunity to build sound evidence which is in support of your proposed project.
Be mindful of what you are reading. Ask yourself if what you are reading is relevant to your project. If it is not, move onto another piece of literature. This will enable you to select relevant information more efficiently and also allow you to make more efficient use of your time.
In addition to reviewing the existing literature and key policies you are also required to conduct a systematic review of the primary research. This will enable you to gain an overview of the research that been conducted and of which is available on your project topic area.
When reviewing a research paper consider if it is relevant and also question whether it is of sufficient quality to support your argument for the proposed project. This will provide you with the opportunity to use your skills in research awareness to access, review and critically analyse the relevant research/evidence that is available.

Introduction (Suggested word count 150 words). Begin the introduction by highlighting the aim of the assignment. Then briefly highlight what the project proposal/innovation is. This will set the scene and signpost the marker towards the main content of the Project Proposal Management Plan template. Project Aim & Objectives (Suggested word count 50 words). The project aim should be clear and precise and inform the marker about the main intention of the project. The objectives should be more specific and provide the marker with an insight into what your project sets out to achieve. Try to ensure the objectivesare, specific, manageable, achievable, realistic and time scaled (SMART Objectives). Rationale (Suggested word count 200 words). The rationale should provide an explanation as to why you have chosen to focus your project on a particular area of practice within your own field of nursing. For example, what has caused you toidentify this area of practice? The rationale provides the opportunity to put your argument forward to support the proposed innovation.

It will also discuss theeffects on people with learning disabilities and their general health, and also seekto find out if this can be managed. The project will also explore and criticallyanalyse relevant existing literature and relevant policies available, to see if thesehave been successfully implemented within these patient group and see ifimplementation has been patient centered and implementation success rates. This project will design a healthy eating plan: Easy read version and devise aplan to ensure both stakeholders, policy makers, Registered Learning DisabilityNurses and service are able to assess this innovation and ensure itsimplementation across the services.Project Aim/Outcomes.
The aim of this project is to create an innovation Healthy eating plan easy readthat will be specific, manageable, achievable, realistic and time scaled (SMART)and impact positively on the lifestyles of people with learning disabilities. This willin turn reduce comorbidities associated with obesity among this patient groupand will also save the National Health Service (NHS) money on the long run. Rationale.The UK has one of the highest incidences of obesity in the world, costing theNHS more than £5 billion a year, a ?gure that is expected to swell to £9.7 billionby 2050 (Public Health England 2013). Obesity-related conditions account for 5%to 6% of the total health budget, placing a signi?cant burden on NHS resources(DH 2011). Data from the Health Survey for England showed that obesity rates among adults with disabilities are 57% higher than those without (Public Health England 2013). There is a two-way relationship between obesity and disability among adults.Adults with disabilities appear to be at higher risk of obesity than those without disabilities, and obese adults may experience disabilities related to their weight Ells, Lang, Shield, Wilkinson, et al. (2006). The reasons for this higher prevalence of obesity in people with learning disabilities are a complex mix of behavioural, environmental and biological factors. People with mild to moderate disabilities who live independently in supported living accommodation with reduced care hours are at increased risk of developing obesity (Emerson,Baines, Allerton & Welch, 2012; Robertson, Emerson, Gregory, Hatto, Turner, etal., 2000). Also genetic disorders such as Prader-Willi syndrome carry a high risk of severe obesity and it has been estimated that 24–48% of adults with Down’ssyndrome are obese (Haveman, Heller, Lee, Maaskant, (2010). Psychotropic medications, used by 30–50% of adults with learning disabilities can also lead to weight gain (Virk, Schwartz, Jindal, Nihalani and Jones, 2004). While on placements across services as a nursing student, I observed that people with learning abilities often make unwise decisions with regards to choices of food and snacks that they eat daily. A one to one conversation regarding why they make the choices they do revealed that they are not aware of the dangers consuming most of these foods causes to their health. I found that a large population of people with learning disabilities will be able to make healthy food choices if information is available to them in easy read format especially meal plans
