APA for Healthcare Programs (HCP)
August 2017 edition
At Tallahassee Community College, many courses include written reports, term papers, presentations and/or creative projects that require research. A research paper which is based on facts and opinions derived from sources outside the writer’s experience must be identified with the text and in a bibliography at the end of the paper. These citations give authority to the content of the paper and appear at the end of the paper in a list called “References.” APA style [American Psychological Association] was established to be the format for journals
published by the American Psychological Association but other disciplines have adopted it as
the format for course assignments. APA is the primary style used in healthcare courses. This
guide is designed specifically for programs offered by the Ghazvini Center for Healthcare
Education and Dental programs on Main Campus.
This guide is meant to be a brief introduction to APA style; therefore, the examples represent
only a small sample of all the various information types that could be used. For additional
citation examples or information regarding APA style, consult the Publication Manual of the
American Psychological Association (6th edition). This guide does not preclude using the book.
PLAGIARISM
The stealing of words and/or ideas of another and representing them as your own is plagiarism.
TCC’s “Standards of Conduct” defines plagiarism as “the use, by paraphrase or direct quotation,
of the published or unpublished work of another person without full and clear acknowledgment”
(Student Code of Conduct). Any student found guilty of plagiarism is subject to disciplinary
sanction as defined within the “TCC Student Code of Conduct.”
Paraphrasing means taking another person’s words and restating the information into your own
words as they relate to your thesis. Paraphrased ideas must be attributed by using both a
parenthetical note and a full citation.
Examples:
Direct Quote and Cited: Use “quotation marks” to signal that you are using someone else’s words.
Studies show that “vegetarians live six to ten years longer than meat-eaters because a plant-based diet provides protection against heart disease, cancer, strokes, and obesity” (Robbins, 2009, p.46).
Paraphrased and No Citation = Plagiarism Research clearly shows that a plant-based diet can protect against numerous diseases and increase longevity.
Paraphrased and Cited: Research clearly shows that a plant-based diet can protect against numerous diseases and increase longevity (Robbins, 2009, p. 46).

Any information used within a research paper, whether quoted or paraphrased, must include a
parenthetical citation which will correspond to a citation on the References page. The
parenthetical citation is a brief reference to the original source.
If you paraphrase information, only the author’s last name and publication year are
needed.
Planning the care of patients requires the ability to assess patients, diagnose problems,
plan goals and interventions, and evaluate progress (Barrett, 2012).
If you are citing a direct quote, you need to include a page number or paragraph number
that shows the exact location within the source.
Nursing care for all core clinical areas must include “the ability to assess patients,
diagnose problems, plan goals and interventions, and evaluate progress” (Barrett, 2012,
p. 67).
Placement of Author’s Name and Year of Publication
If the last name of the author is in your paper’s text, put the year of publication after it.
Osborne (2011) noted the relationship between diet and dental caries among
If your paper’s text does not include the name of the author, put the last name and year of
publication in the same parentheses at the end of the sentence.
New therapeutic opportunities offer better respiratory care (Zimmer, 2009).
One Work by Two Authors
Cite both last names each time the source is cited in your text. Join the names with ‘and’ if they
are in your text. If the names are used parenthetically, use ‘&’ between them.
Morgan and Johnson (2010) recommended reducing the item size of food as a
prevention strategy for countering obesity-promoting eating behaviors.
countering obesity-promoting eating behaviors (Morgan & Johnson, 2010).
One Work by Three, Four, or Five Authors
Cite all of the authors’ names the first time in the text but if cited again, include only the last name
of the first author followed by “et al.” and the publication year separated by a comma.
PARENTHETICAL DOCUMENTATION
APA for Health Care & Dental Programs @ TCC

First citation:
Substance misuse may be diagnosed in geriatric patients (Boltz, Klein, Metress, & Levin,
2012). OR Boltz, Klein, Metress, and Levin (2012) recognized
Subsequent citation:

One Work by Six or More Authors
Cite only the last name of the first author followed by “et al.” and year of publication in the text
for the first and all subsequent parenthetical citations.
information on CPR and portable defibrillators (Adler, et al., 2011).
Work with No Author
Cite the first 2-3 words of the title and year. Use “double quotation marks” around article or
chapter titles
on essentials of imaging technology (“Study Finds,” 2013)
but italicize the shortened title of a book, video, journal or magazine
the book Learning Pediatric Imaging (2011)
Organization or Institution as Author
Names of corporate authors are usually spelled out each time they appear in the text citation. If
the name of a corporate author is long and readily recognizable, you may abbreviate the name
in the second and subsequent citations in the text. Use initials in brackets with the full name in
the first citation and the initials in subsequent citations.
1st citation: Increasing disease rates demand the use of proven strategies to improve
population health (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2011).
2nd citation: Public health practitioners must be ready to implement health goals (CDC, 2011).
APA for Health Care & Dental Programs @ TCC

Direct Quotations
A short quotation (fewer than 40 words) may be incorporated into your text. Enclose the
quotation with double quotation marks. You must include a page number or paragraph number
that shows the exact location within the source.
Nursing care for all core clinical areas must include “the ability to assess patients,
diagnose problems, plan goals and interventions, and evaluate progress” (Barrett, 2012,
p. 67). OR
Barrett (2012) stresses that nursing care for all core clinical areas must include “the
ability to assess patients, diagnose problems, plan goals and interventions, and evaluate
progress” (p. 67).
Block Quotation
For more than 40 words, display this quotation in a free standing block of typewritten lines and
omit the quotation marks. Begin a block quotation on a new line, indented 5 spaces from the
left margin. Double-space the entire quotation. A block quotation is usually introduced with a
colon, and the parenthetical citation is given after the end punctuation of the quotation.
Barrett (2012) revealed the following concerning nursing care plans:
A care plan is based on assessment of the patient’s medical condition, the
nursing diagnosis, understanding of his personality and his family, and
knowledge of the facility’s resources. The plan may include two types of goals,
long-term and short-term, which allow a nurse to objectively evaluate progress
toward a goal and how the plan is being used. Objectively is the key word here.
(p. 134)
Web Site Citation in Text
To cite an entire web site (not a specific document on the site), give the address of the site in
the text.
KidsHealth provides unbiased, reliable information to help parents pursue good health
and wellness for their families (http://www.kidshealth.org).

DOIs: DIGITAL OBJECT IDENTIFIERS
The Digital Object Identifier (or DOI) is an element of an APA formatted citation but
is optional at TCC. You must check with your instructor.
The DOI is like an Internet address linking back to the publisher of the item. If there is
a DOI available (and your instructor says to use them), you should add it to the end of
your citation. If the material came from a TCC database but has no DOI, only put the
name of the database it was retrieved from. If the source came from the Web and
has no DOI, put “Retrieved from” and the Internet address.
Not every source is going to have a DOI number.
