In this course wrap-up discussion, please reflect on your experience in the course and address the following items:  

  • Identify one of your major takeaways from this course.  
  • What aspects of the course helped you achieve this?  
  • Choose one of the course student learning outcomes (CSLO). Please explain how you could apply your chosen learning outcome to your practice and/or have achieved this outcome having participated in this class. 
  • How will you apply this knowledge to your practice and career? 

This course has been a truly enriching experience, and as I reflect on it, several key aspects stand out. For the course student learning outcome, “Develop your role as a nurse advocate that can impact legislative development (CSLO 4)”, I feel this course has significantly empowered me. While directly impacting legislative development might seem like a distant goal early in one’s career, this course has provided me with the foundational understanding and the impetus to actively engage in advocacy. I now recognize that nurses have a powerful voice and a crucial role to play in shaping healthcare policy. I can apply this learning outcome in several ways. On a smaller scale, I can advocate for my patients within the healthcare system by understanding their rights, ensuring their voices are heard, and navigating complex bureaucratic processes. Furthermore, I can engage in professional organizations and participate in initiatives aimed at influencing local and state-level policies related to patient care, working conditions, and public health. This course has instilled in me the importance of staying informed about legislative issues affecting healthcare and the various avenues through which nurses can make their voices heard, whether it’s through contacting legislators, participating in grassroots efforts, or contributing to policy briefs. Looking ahead, I believe the knowledge gained in this course will be invaluable in my practice and career. The development of my advocacy skills will empower me to be a more effective voice for my patients and the nursing profession. As I grow in my career, I envision myself becoming increasingly involved in advocacy efforts, contributing to the development of policies that promote patient well-being and advance the practice of nursing. This course has laid a strong foundation for me to become a more knowledgeable and impactful nurse.

Individual Project Unit 5 #1 (3-4 pages)

Based on the IP you completed in Unit 4, you will now take the system that you selected for evaluation and create an implementation and support plan. You are to serve as the product manager for the given system. It is your responsibility to ensure the success of this system. Complete the following:

  • Create an implementation plan (development and deployment) for the identified system.
  • In addition to your implementation plan, be sure to consider the key performance indicators (KPIs) that you will use to evaluate the success or value of the system.
  • Consider what maintenance aspects must be accounted for to ensure the long-term use of this system.
  •  Just as an FYI, the timelines for this kind of project are almost always in months and implementation/completion is usually 1-2 years after the first internal meeting. 

Individual Project Unit 5 #2 (30-40 slides) 

Create a PowerPoint presentation from your Individual Projects from Units 1–5. This PowerPoint presentation should be a presentation to a chief information officer (CIO). For your presentation, assume that you are being tasked with creating a new division within a healthcare information technology (IT) organization. You have been given complete control of this division; however, you need to explain to the CIO how you will manage the following:

  • The systems development life cycle (SDLC) (e.g., waterfall or agile)
  • The regulations associated with healthcare (e.g., Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act [HIPAA] and meaningful use)
  • Security and recovery (e.g., system security, network security, and data security)
  • System interoperability and organizational interoperability
  • Implementation of the systems that your division is responsible for within the organization (e.g., action plan)
  • Evaluation of your organization and definitions of success, including financial objectives

The Christian perspective of the intrinsic worth and value of each person.

/in /by

This assignment will focus on introducing you to the question of human dignity and, in particular, the Christian perspective of the intrinsic worth and value of each person. You will have the opportunity to integrate this insight with scientific and philosophical approaches that inform judgements made in health care and contrast it with secular approaches to human value and worth. The logic of human rights will be made explicit as you engage with different concepts of “moral status.”

Based on your reading of the “Case Study: Fetal Abnormality” (attached) and topic Resources, complete the “Moral Status: Case Analysis” (attached) document, in which you will analyze the case study in relation to the following:

  • Christian view of the nature of human persons, theory of moral status, intrinsic human value, and dignity
  • Theory or theories used by individuals in the case to determine the moral status
  • How each theory used determines or influences recommendations for action
  • Moral status theory personal response
  • Integration of knowledge in health care (theories, multiple ways of knowing, evidence) and knowledge from other disciplines inform and support current or future professional health care practices and judgements

Support your response using only Chapter 2 from the textbook Practicing Dignity: An Introduction to Christian Values and Decision-Making in Health Care and the Topic 2 Resource “The Image of God, Bioethics, and Persons With Profound Intellectual Disabilities.”

While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
