MSNF P6011 Patient Centered Concept Map.

Create an evidence-based, patient-centered concept map that illustrates an individualized approach to patient care, based on a patient case file of your choice.

Evidence-based practice is a key skill in the toolkit of the master’s-prepared nurse. Its goal is to ensure that health care practitioners are using the best available evidence to ensure that patients are receiving the best care possible (Godshall, M., 2015.). In essence, evidence-based practice is all about ensuring quality care.

  • Competency 1: Apply evidence-based practice to plan patient-centered care.
    • Analyze the needs of a patient, and those of their family, with regard to how they will influence a patient-centered concept map.
    • Design an individualized, patient-centered concept map, based upon the best available evidence for treating a patient’s specific health, economic, and cultural needs.
  • Competency 3: Evaluate outcomes of evidence-based interventions.
    • Propose relevant and measurable criteria for evaluating the outcomes of a patient-centered concept map.
  • Competency 4: Evaluate the value and relative weight of available evidence upon which to make a clinical decision.

As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.

Recall an experience you have had—or one that you might have observed in your care setting—in which you individualized care for a patient.

  • In your approach to individualized care, did you:
    • Address any health concerns other than those for which the patient was seeking care?
    • Consider the patient’s economic and daily environmental circumstances?
    • Consider any ethical issues inherent in working with the patient?
  • What might you have done differently, if you could revisit that patient’s case?
  • What evidence supported your original course of action?
  • What evidence would you present to support an alternative course of action, if you could revisit that patient’s case?

SUGGESTED RESOURCES

The resources provided here are optional. You may use other resources of your choice to prepare for this assessment; however, you will need to ensure that they are appropriate, credible, and valid. The MSN-FP6011 – Evidence-Based Practice for Patient-Centered Care and Population Health Library Guide can help direct your research, and the Supplemental Resources and Research Resources, both linked from the left navigation menu in your courseroom, provide additional resources to help support you.

Evidence-Based Practice

PREPARATION

You have been presented with a number of patient case files in the Evidence-Based Patient-Centered Care media piece. You reviewed each case, selected one case for further research, and created draft evidence-based concept map to illustrate an approach to individualized care for the patient. In this assessment, you will build upon and refine your draft concept map and develop a supporting narrative.

Create your concept map and narrative as separate documents. Be sure to note the areas where you need to include your evidence-based support and where you need to make clear your strategies for communicating information to the patient and the patient’s family.

Note: Many organizations use the spider style of concept maps (see the Taylor & Littleton-Kearney article for an example). Also, if a specific style of concept map is used in your current care setting, you may use it in this assessment.

Create your concept map and narrative as separate documents. Be sure to note the areas where you need to include your evidence-based support and where you need to make clear your strategies for communicating information to the patient and the patient’s family.
