#1

 

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
