Quality and Cost Measurements
As nurse practitioners continue to expand their role in delivering health care, it is imperative for NPs to provide the data and evidence to demonstrate the impact of NP care on patient outcomes. There are several challenges that advanced practice nurses face to provide quality care and meet productivity goals of an organization. This week it is important to explore the connection of quality care and performance measures. Some questions to consider as we discuss this topic are:

Assignment 2: Practicum Journal and Time Log (Due Week 4)
A vital part of the reflective process is to plan for changes in your behavior.

Being a reflective practitioner enables NPs to identify weaknesses and target professional development in order to address these weaknesses. In turn, this increases the NPs ability to provide the best care to patients and their families.

Assignment 2: Practicum Journal and Time Log (Due Week 4)
A vital part of the reflective process is to plan for changes in your behavior.

Somerville & Keeling, 2004.

Being a reflective practitioner enables NPs to identify weaknesses and target professional development in order to address these weaknesses. In turn, this increases the NPs ability to provide the best care to patients and their families. Reflection also affords the NP time to consider communication and their efforts toward creating a culture of mutual support with colleagues, a characteristic that is essential to successful NP practice (Somerville & Keeling, 2004).

Each week you will complete a Journal Entry and Time Log that prompts you to reflect on your Practicum Experiences and how they relate to your Professional Goals and Self-Assessment of Clinical Skills. This week you will begin documenting your Practicum Experiences in your Practicum Journal.

Prompt:

Please define feminist theory in your own words. Do you believe there are intrinsic gender differences, or do you believe that gender differences are socialized? Does a person have to identify as female to practice feminist therapy or to be the client of a feminist-oriented therapist? Please explain the rationale for your response. Do you feel that one can be a Christian feminist, and if so, how would you describe a Christian feminist?

Organizational Complexity

September 2, 2020 Leave a comment APA, Business and Management

Think of your organization through the lens of Complexity. Describe two issues that are constrained by the complexity within your organization.

For example: You are a part of a family owned business where an inexperienced family member has been given a position of authority. While you are aware of the mistakes this family member is making that are having an adverse impact on the culture, you opt to not bring the issue to the attention of the Senior Leadership because you fear you will be viewed as a whistle-blower.

1.    Describe two issues you are observing in your organization. Describe as if you are a consultant/advisor; write your paper as if the CEO will read your work.
1.    In a short introduction, describe the overall problem, and two specific issues that need to be addressed.
2.    In the body, complete an analysis of each issue; what is the issue and why is it important (if unresolved how might it harm the company)?
3.    In the conclusion, provide at least one recommendation that will address each issue, and explain how this will resolve the problem.
2.    Integrate with related readings and coursework; supporting examples are good ways to reinforce your recommendations.
