Program Outcome 3
Demonstrate the ability to navigate and integrate care services across the health care system.
(Specialty Leadership Role Practice)
Specialty Leadership Role in Practice is the ability to provide care across the health care system. The Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) program created various assignments to complete this outcome. The ability to integrate care services can be crucial for a patient or colleague to receive or provide safe quality care. The first paper was chosen as a tribute since I had personally experienced anxiety, as evidenced by a traumatic event in the health care setting. This narrated presentation is a guide for other nurses in the event they endure a traumatic experience. The presentation provides teaching tools to use in the event this occurs to them or to their patient they are educating. It provides integrated care services and a self-reflection on the traumatic event. As I review this assignment, the statistic states that one in six people have the mental health anxiety disorder. In the MSN program, not only am I part of that statistic, but so are others.
The next assignment integrated a complete medical history of an individual. Performing a complete medical history on a patient allows the time for education and possibly referrals if needed. The history of this patient showed tobacco use. Education was provided and care services were given to help the patient stop the tobacco use. Other examples include diet education and information on how to obtain a diet referral. This assignment has the ability to research care services outside the scope of the nurse and continue safe quality care to the patient.
The last attachment is a concept map assignment. The concept map aligns the nurse educator role and breaks it down into categories. The role component category integrates teaching, scholarship and service in the educator position. In this category the nurse can obtain each component within the specialty. The National League for Nursing (NLN) category is then connected to the role component, and both are linked together. Reviewing this assignment helps link the Specialty Leadership Role Practice when being a nurse educator.
The National League for Nursing (NLN) competencies completed during program outcome three include:
Competency I: Facilitate Learning
Nurse Educators are responsible for creating an environment in classroom, laboratory, and clinical settings that facilitates student learning and the achievement of desired cognitive, affective, and psychomotor outcomes.
Competency V: Function as a Change Agent and Leader
Nurse Educators function as change agents and leaders to create a preferred future for nursing education and nursing practice.
Competency VI: Pursue Continuous Quality Improvements in the Nurse Educator Role
Nurse Educators recognize that their role is multidimensional and that an ongoing commitment to develop and maintain competence in the role is essential.
