Nursing Practicum Project
Healthcare is dynamic and complex. Nurses graduating from a masters degree program must demonstrate competencies that will allow them to respond to current and emerging trends in healthcare. Each week, you will address one or more of the 9 Essentials of Masters Education in Nursing. As you plan, develop, implement and evaluate your nursing practicum project, reflect on how this project and your graduate education have prepared you to meet the growing needs of healthcare and the diverse populations we serve. This week you will address Essential I: Background for Practice from Sciences and Humanities. This first assignment is intended to help each student set a context for the course, establish expectations and goals for the course, and provide insights to the instructor enabling tailoring of the course to better fit the needs of the students. Presentation must be well considered and scholarly. A quality initial response to the Question should be roughly 400 words.
