Role Of Advance Nursing Week One Discussion 2

Hamric’s Integrative Model of Advance Practice Nursing

The AACN Synergy Model

Strong Memorial Hospital’s Model of Advance Practice Nursing

Shuler’s Model of Nurse Practitioner Practice

This week you will describe how these models may help APNs articulate professional role identify and function. Conceptual models will serve as a framework for organizing beliefs and knowledge about your professional roles and competencies and provide a basis for further development of knowledge.

Question: Select one model from the above list and read the original source description. Address how well the model meets the following purposes:

a. Helping to organize your beliefs and knowledge about advanced practice nursing

b. Providing structure for research on advanced practice nursing

c. Providing a coherent structure in which concepts important to advanced practice nursing are identified and related to one another

d. Guiding curriculum development for advanced practice nursing

e. Allowing practitioners to see the bigger picture so that they can provide holistic and comprehensive care

Guidelines: Support your responses with scholarly academic references using APA style format. You are not writing an APA paper–but citing your sources in APA format.

ORDER CUSTOM, PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPER

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
