Instructions: Develop a personal philosophy and framework acknowledging professional and accrediting agency competencies relating to the role and scope of practice of the family nurse practitioner. Identify a nurse theorist or professional accrediting agency that provides the foundation for this philosophy development. Describe the type of educational courses and professional requirements required for APN professional certification and licensing within the state of Texas that you will practice in and compare to at least one other state for evaluation purposes. Identify the precise application process for boards, your state regulations for application for prescriptive practice, and issues related to APN practice within your state. Evaluate and discuss APN roles and prescriptive privileges and impact on client safety and care Compare the differences between prescriptive authority, credentialing, and clinical privileges and how each of these impact client safety and care Evaluate the development of the advanced practice nurse role from a global perspective. Compare at least 2 countries and how similar or dissimilar the APN roles are in other countries.
Leadership Project Guidelines A unique feature of this course is the means by which it allows students make use of all that they have learned about leadership and to apply that learning to professional contexts in which they are currently involvedwork or otherwise. This is accomplished through a carefully designed project in which students have the opportunity to exercise leadership. The project should include working closely with other people to effect or initiate positive change (for example, influencing others, motivating others, coordinating others.) Projects that do not involve interaction with people and effecting or initiating positive changefor example, ones involving only gathering information, shadowing a leader or interning for a leaderare unacceptable, because they do not involve the exercise of leadership. Examples of acceptable projects: o Coordinating efforts involving several people to create a new strategic plan for an organization or organizational unit/department o Leading a task force of people involved in revamping the way an organization or organizational department/unit assesses itself, and communicating the new assessment plan to all relevant constituents o Developing with others a plan to motivate them to improved performance, and then initiating that plan with measures to ensure it can be sustained The leadership project paper should be 12 to 15 pages in length and should cover the following: o A description of the problem on which the project focused; for example, how the problem was identified and what real evidence there is for its presence, why the problem has an impact on the organization, why solving the problem can make a significant difference to the organization; o The means identified to address the problem: for example, changing current operations (procedures, culture, perceptions), strategic planning, adding or shifting resources, revising or adding organizational assessment mechanisms, rethinking the customer/market focus, rethinking leadership practices. (Note: If you propose the latter, you should have discussed it throughout the project with leaders within the organization.) o The results of the project: that is, what effect will it have (or has it already had) on the organization and on organizational performance? o Personal reflections on the project, its results, and how previous learning in the leadership program was brought to bear during the project. In your practicum you should consider the following: ?Meet a need of the organization. Time and resources are limited, so support the organization by helping them with real needs. ?Support your career goals. One of the goals of the Leadership Studies program is to support you in your career. ?Enjoy the process.
A literature review/proposal that includes a unique research question, a coherent analysis of the literature, and a research design that includes plausible methods for answering the research question at hand. Intermediate level literature reviews should exceed minimum expectations and show a higher level of thinking about the topic area and research question. The literature review addresses an identified question that is well-supported by a sufficient number of well-chosen research articles, shows clear attention to organization, proceeds logically, and clearly identifies shortcomings of existing research. The proposed research should be designed in such a manner that it adequately fills identified gaps and should offer a plausible method for gathering the appropriate data to answer the question at hand. REQUIRED SECTIONS OF THE PAPER – (These are also the ONLY Level 1 Headers the paper will have): Abstract: (150-250 word) summary of the entire paper. The abstract should include the problem area, gap in the research, proposed research design and potential contribution of the research. Background: (Referred to as the Literature Review)- 10 pages total – The literature review should proceed logically from the general problem area down to the specific research being proposed. Lit review includes the following: – An identified problem area and its significance, in terms of scope, impact, urgency, etc. – A clear research question that can be addressed within the scope of a 10-page paper. – Identification and evaluation of other relevant research that has been conducted and why this body of research is not sufficient to answer the question at hand (. does existing research not ask the right questions, or measure the right variables? Do they only focus on a particular age? Or not take age into account?) – Adequate explanation of concepts and a clear statement of the expectations or research hypotheses. Method: Proposal of new (. improved) research (3 pages total). Papers should clearly explain the primary method (research design) that will be used to gather information, which includes: Participants, Instrumentation, and Procedure as subheadings. In addition, the proposal should address how the study will sufficiently protect the welfare of the participants of their study. If a survey instrument is to be constructed, include a sample of the survey, as well as how responses might be coded or analyzed. All aspects of any interventions should be well explained. Data Analysis and Anticipated Results: The data analysis process should be clearly explained along with the anticipated outcomes of the study. Data analysis should detail how demographic data will be reported, as well as what statistical tests will be run to test hypotheses (if applicable). Discussion: The implications of the research should be explored, as well as ways that the proposed research may meaningfully contribute to existing knowledge. Minimum of 25 citations. The paper should be scholarly in tone and authoritative. This is not an essay (. opinion piece), a reaction paper, or a report. Papers should clearly articulate the purpose and significance of the study and supported ideas with references to relevant literature.

This assignment will help you explore how hospitals are making cutbacks in spending. One of the areas marked for cutbacks is monies used for continuing education. Nursing leaders are being asked to justify these costs. You are a nursing leader in a hospital or a healthcare facility. The chief financial officer (CFO) has told you that unless you can develop a fiscal rationale, the hospital will no longer pay for tuition reimbursement and professional certification of nurses. Develop a 4- to 5-page proposal that addresses the following: 1. The cost of these programs versus the return on investment for the hospital. 2. The return on investment for a nurse going to school. For instance, if you send a nurse manager to get his or her masters, how can you track that he or she is a better leader? 3. The argument and position, which includes the cost of education versus the benefit to the hospital.
