Nursing NUR 435 – Week 6 Assignment: Planning for Professinal Development, Part 1

In a two-part assignment, submitted in weeks 6 and 8, you will create a job portfolio that highlights your exemplary nursing career. In Week 6, you will focus on creating a cover letter and personal statement.

Planning for Professional Development Part 1 due this week:

Step 1 Create a cover letter for your portfolio.

Imagine that you are interviewing for a nurse manager position in your institution. Write a cover letter, containing at least two-paragraphs, explaining why you want to be a nurse manager and why you are the best candidate for the position.

Review how to prepare an effective cover letter  There are many online resources to help you.  You may find GCF Learn FreeLinks to an external site. particularly useful.  You may use one of the following templates for your cover letter or develop one of your own.

Step 2 State your nursing beliefs.

Some employers ask you to include a personal statement.  To complete this section, create a separate document with the following three main headings:

  • Why I Became a Nurse
  • My Nursing Philosophy
  • My Vision for the Next Five to Ten Years

Each section should be at least one paragraph long.

Step 3 Save and submit your assignment.  You will upload two documents (a cover letter and your personal statement).

When you have completed your assignment, save a copy for yourself in an easily accessible place and submit a copy to your instructor.

The table below gives some operational statistics for two hospitals located in the same community. Use the table to answer the following questions.

  1. Calculate the following measures for each hospital (wherever appropriate, calculate the measure for each pay type). Discuss the meaning and significance of each measure and point out the differences between the two hospitals.
    1. Hospital capacity
    2. ALOS
    3. Occupancy rate
  2. Operationally, which hospital is performing better? Why?
  3. Do you think the nonprofit hospital is meeting its community benefit obligations in exchange for its tax-exempt status? Explain.
  4. Do you think the hospitals have a problem with excess capacity? If so, what would you recommend? In your answer to this question, please consider how hospital governance may impact the ability of an administrator to make changes.

Week 4: Project Aims, Values, and Desired
Outcomes

1. A reference to the project’s benefits in terms of cost, time, and/or quality that address needs or
changes, results, impacts, or consequences that the project has on people, programs, or institutions.

2. Goals and objectives that are measurable, shared, and hypothetically agreed on by all key stakeholders.
They are directly linked to the concept of project success factors.

3. What variables need to be considered and and whether or not you have control over them.
• For example, if you were to implement a clinic-wide practice change, would budget be an issue and

how would you address that variable?
• If you were to implement your study, consider how would you gather data. Would you choose the

qualitative or quantitative method?

• An explanation of what your research will provide to the community, or to social
change.

• A description of the desired outcomes: Specifically, state the purpose, focus, and viewpoint of the
project as well as its expected accomplishments.

• While you may not be implementing your project, you should have a goal in mind that relates to solving
your problem.

• Establish a timeline for accomplishing your project goal(s).

This section should be 3–4 pages in length, not including the cover or reference page,
and should address the intended outcomes of your project. You must reference a minimum of 3

scholarly articles.

Use current APA format to style your paper and to cite your sources. Review the rubric for more information on

how the assignment will be graded.

Discussion 5

According to ANA, no single staffing model—patient acuity, budget-based, or nurse-patient ratio—is best for all settings and situations. Most organizations use a combination of methods and tailor the overall staffing approach to their specific needs. 

Respond to at least 1 of the following prompts:

1. What staffing model is implemented at the facility where you work?  What would you recommend for modifying the staffing model where you work, what is you recommendation based on and how would you implement the change?  (Support your thoughts/ideas with academic literature OR required readings) 

2. There are in existence nursing-sensitive indicators affected by staffing.  Can you suggest another nursing-sensitive indicator not being measured that might affect staffing?  What would be the indicator and how would you measure the indicator?  (Support your thoughts/ideas with academic literature OR required readings) 

3. Understanding others’ roles provides insight into who can best perform a particular task and how it could be redesigned to be more efficient and effective. How would delegation have a positive effect on staffing?  (Support your thoughts/ideas with academic literature OR required readings) .  Please look at the Florida Nurse Practice Act to verify what roles the RN MUST perform by law.
