NRS 490  Week 2 Assignment
In collaboration with your approved course mentor, you will choose a specific evidence-based practice proposal topic for the Capstone Project. Consider the clinical environment in which you are currently working or have recently worked. The Capstone Project topic can be a clinical practice problem, an organizational issue, a quality improvement suggestion, a leadership initiative, or an educational need appropriate to your area of interest as well as your practice immersion (practicum) setting. A combination of 100 “supervised clinical hours” in community health and leadership areas will be obtained through the application of the objectives listed in the “Guidelines for Undergraduate Field Experiences” manual and as captured in the ISP.
Practicum immersion experiences are required in a community health setting. Community health and leadership practice immersion can occur in the same site and in conjunction with the evidence-based project in the NRS-490V course. Definitions of community-based settings should encourage community integration and involvement; expand accessibility of services and supports; promote personal preference, strengths, dignity; and empower people to participate in the economic mainstream. Examples of the integration of community health, leadership, and an EBP can be found at Healthy People 2020.
The goals of the practice immersion experience is to apply the learning from your research, community health, and leadership courses:
After studying this course, you should be able to:
Demonstrate and apply knowledge of factors to consider when planning to work with a chosen community.
Demonstrate and apply knowledge of approaches that will facilitate engagement of the community.
Demonstrate and apply knowledge and skills required to work constructively with communities.
Demonstrate and apply knowledge related to engagement of organizational leadership and change agents.
Demonstrate and apply knowledge related to disseminating project findings/data with organizational leadership and change agents.
Demonstrate and apply knowledge related to completing an evidence-based project to impact population health outcomes.
Demonstrate and apply Healthy People 2010/2020 principles related to completing an evidence-based project to impact population health outcomes.
According to Healthy People.gov, educational and community-based programs and strategies are designed to reach people outside of traditional health care settings. These settings may include:
Schools
Worksites
Health care facilities
Communities
Each setting provides opportunities to reach people using existing social structures. This maximizes impact and reduces the time and resources necessary for program development.
In a composition of no more than 750 words, describe the nature of your proposed project topic. Include the following in your discussion:
The setting or context in which the problem, issue, suggestion, initiative, or educational need can be observed.
A description providing a high level of detail regarding the problem, issue, suggestion, initiative, or educational need.
Impact of the problem, issue, suggestion, initiative, or educational need on the work environment, the quality of care provided by staff, and patient outcomes.
Significance of the problem, issue, suggestion, initiative, or educational need and its implications to nursing.
