AP Role
How well do you know your future role in
advance practice?
The elevator door opens; you step on and find
yourself face to face with a known skeptical colleague, who inquires “what are
you doing in your profession”? It’s your chance to share, define and possible
persuade this person about your chosen role of nursing in advance practice. You
have 10 floors, roughly 90 seconds to make an impression. Draft an “Elevator
Speech” (approximately 300 words) reflecting the conversation about your future
role in your program of study. In three detailed paragraphs, address why
you have chosen this role (your passion) and define steps to ascertain the role
including certification criteria and how the role will impact patient outcomes
(how you will make a difference).
Support your work with evidence based
research. For example, in conversation you tell the person A recent study by
Taylor in 2016 showed that NPs were efficient as MDs at treating primary care
problems. (Reference at the end) Respond to at least two of your cohorts,
faculty and continue the dialogue with those that responded to your initial
post. Use references in your responses.

Discussion Questions
Faculty will assign you either DQ 1 or DQ 2.
Please answer all parts of the DQ.
Discussion Question Response: By, post your
complete response to one of the discussion questions in the appropriate threads
in the Discussion Area by due date assigned.
Participation Responses: No later than the
due date assigned, review and comment on the discussion question responses
posted by at least two of your peers and faculty. Continue to monitor your
question and responses until the end of the week.
Guidelines: Support your responses with
scholarly academic references using APA style format. Assigned course readings
and online library resources are preferred. Weekly lecture notes are designed
as overviews to the topic for the respective week and should not serve as a
citation or reference.
In your discussion question response, provide
a substantive response that illustrates a well-reasoned and thoughtful
response; is factually correct with relevant scholarly citations, references,
and examples that demonstrate a clear connection to the readings.
In your participation responses to your
peers, comments must demonstrate thorough analysis of postings and extend
meaningful discussion by building on previous postings.
Discussion Question 1

Coaching and mentoring should be a core
competency of nurses prepared at the graduate level. Do you agree or disagree
with this statement? Defend your response.
Based on your graduate specialization,
identify one coaching activity that you can do in this advanced practice role.

Week 3 Discussion New
Ethical Dilemma
Faculty will lead the discussion by posting
first.
After reviewing The Invisible Patients
documentary, define/describe in detail an ethical dilemma that was experienced
by the NP. Please note, there are several ethical issues, so there should be
diversity in the responses. Explain how you would have handled the
situation.
How is the NP in the documentary a Disruptive
Innovator?
Discuss if there is a relationship between your
personal beliefs and values and this ethical dilemma/barrier.
Describe at least one mechanism to overcome
the barrier discussed.
Examine the potential cost and benefits to
this barrier.
Remember there is no right or wrong answer
for this ethical question. Suggested reference Look at the Nuremburg Code (US
Department of Health & Human Services, 2005; Washington, 2012) as it was
the major start of ethics in research and that can carry over to nursing
practice.

Group Project
This week you will be assigned to a group and
be given a domain to develop/discuss applying all or some of the 7 core
competencies. Group members need to assume AP roles (clinical and non-clinical)
either by volunteering or being assigned by the group leader. A group leader
must be decided and may be a nurse manager/nurse administrator, CNS, NP (maybe
more than one and from different specialties), NI, and NE.CNLs and RNs may be
also be part of the group scenario. All members are expected to demonstrate
leadership knowledge and skills, but also must be willing to follow.Each group
will demonstrate the core competencies and principals of transformational
leadership in the group work. (See rubric).To ensure understanding of
leadership styles, each group member will discover their own professional
leadership style by an individual self-assessment online.Assignments and
responsibilities should be equally assumed by group members. The final evidence
of the group work will be power point presentation that discusses the scenario
addressing the assigned domain, the roles and the outcomes. Please note that
although a group project, individual grading rubric will be used to determine
individual grades.(See below).
The master’s prepared nurse demonstrates
leadership in the four domains: the profession of nursing, clinical practice
arena, health policy arena, and systems level. The impact could be found in health
promotion, disease prevention/management, quality improvement and/or within
management of a health system. In order to complete this assignment, each group
member will complete anassessmentabout your leadership style and post to the
group area their leadership style.
