  PROFESSIONAL CONTEXT

  Nurses are leaders in problem identification and solution, planning and implementing patient care strategies to address problems in the home, hospital, and community. This assessment will help you develop a problem statement for a patient, family, or population health concern.

  INSTRUCTIONS

  Throughout this capstone course, you will be investigating a patient, family, or population health problem relevant to your practice. For this assessment, you will identify the problem that you will address throughout your clinical practicum in this course, as well as begin to establish your evidence and research base to plan, implement, and share findings related to your project. The Problem Identification Template [DOC] will guide you through development of a problem statement, evidence collection and analysis, and best practices to help you create your implementation plan for the second assessment in this course.Your submission for this assessment will be the completed template. When working through the template, you may use the resources provided in this course; however, most of your research and search for evidence will be conducted by you. Use the Capella University Library, professional organization and government resources, and relevant organizational best practices as sources of evidence. This is the capstone course for your BSN degree; your goal is to demonstrate your achievement of the program outcomes through your work on this project.The following are some health issues that would be appropriate for your project:

  • Diabetes self-management.
  • Hypertension management and prevention.
  • Medication reconciliation within a family or group.
  • Parkinson’s disease support group.
  • Patient family education communication improvements.
  • Postoperative home care.

  This list is by no means exhaustive. You should choose a patient, family, or population health issue that is relevant to your practice and organization; you must be able to study the problem in your clinical practicum effectively.

  SCORING GUIDE CRITERIA

Hello everyone,

Keep up the great work you are doing in class! These are some tips for class to help you get through this course successfully.

First, keep in mind that this is not just a class where you are writing papers. This is your capstone project and the detail that is needed should be included. Second, assessments have to be submitted in order and they build on each other. So, the next assessment should be submitted after you read the feedback on the previous one. It is important to read all directions very thoroughly in this course.

Assessment #1- Students often do not address the state board of nursing area adequately on this section. Tip-this is about your state board of nursing specifically.

Assessment #2- This is a plan proposal. You are building on what you wrote in assessment #1 and telling me your plan. Tip- Don’t forget the detail! This is your project, not just another paper!

Assessment #3- This is the discussion of the educational activity you will be conducting in a paper format. Tip- submission of your paper, your brochure or flyer, and your CORE Elms entered hours are a necessity.

Assessment #4- This is a Kaltura video and a reference list. Tip-Please submit both. Students sometimes forget one or the other.

Assessment #5- This is your Pathbrite eportfolio. Please read the directions very, very carefully. Tip- read the directions and click on the 3 links in the middle of the instructions page. This will help you create your eportfolio. Next, make it public so I can actually see it. Finally, upload all the competencies and your resume. Please don’t forget to tell me what your 2 artifacts will be according to the scoring guide.

As always, please follow the scoring guide as well. I hope this helps everyone!

thanks

Dr Bhatt
