 Post:

A practice doctorate in nursing is a Doctor in Nursing Practice (DNP). Along the healthcare continuum, the DNP degree prepares nurses for nursing leadership and administration jobs in both clinical and non-clinical settings. According to Graves et al. (2021), a nurse who has earned a practice doctorate engages in advanced clinical practice and offers advanced levels of direct patient care. They use their specific knowledge and abilities to evaluate, identify, and treat complex health disorders. Nurses with practice doctorates are critical to leadership and collaboration in healthcare teams and systems. They work with physicians and other healthcare professionals to create and carry out care plans, enhance patient outcomes, and guarantee coordinated, all-comprehensive treatment.

Additionally, practicing nurses with doctoral degrees frequently work as educators and mentors, communicating their knowledge and experience into nursing students, other medical professionals, and colleagues of DNP nurses, who often fund one of their ideas and conduct research. Doctorly educated nurses must critically assess and apply theoretical frameworks to direct their practice and progress in nursing science. Although nurses with other degrees, such as the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) or Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) certainly contribute significantly to nursing practice, it is crucial to remember that doctoral degrees typically come with higher expectations for research, leadership, theoretical comprehension, and planning. DNP graduates are expected to exhibit outstanding leadership and professional abilities, while BSN graduates are expected to deliver safe and competent patient care. Second, whereas DNP graduates are expected to have knowledge and skills in strategies for quality improvement and healthcare innovation, MSN graduates are expected to have advanced clinical abilities and expertise in their chosen specialty, particularly in advanced managerial roles.

By earning a DNP, nurses can increase their knowledge and proficiency in a particular area. My motivation stems from the information I can apply to handle complex mental health challenges and enhance patient outcomes. Assessment and improvement of the quality of healthcare delivery are specialties of DNP nurses. I may recognize, plan, and implement improvement opportunities to improve patient safety, lessen health inequities, and produce better results (Harrison et al., 2021). DNP-holding nurses are in the right position to influence public policy and improve the healthcare system. So that I may support equity, open access, and patient-centered care, I can uncover systemic gaps, make adjustments, and advocate for those changes.

Some of my experiences in addressing a gap in practice within an organization include aligning education with the practice environment. According to Fawaz et al. (2017), it will be necessary for nursing schools, organizations, practitioners, and students to all develop coping mechanisms for handling the sudden entry of new knowledge, ideas, and abilities. In addition, technology significantly impacts how we live our lives and how we practice, educate, manage, and do research. Process-based learning, which could delay the efficient implementation of my practice, is now underemphasized in nursing school.

Assignment: Utilize Feedback through Self-Reflection and Literature Review

In Week 7, you integrated and applied elements of the course content in the Signature Assignment, which allowed you to address a significant question or issue (i.e., through creative thinking, critical thinking, problem-solving, inquiry, and analysis). Using the feedback from your Week 7 assignment, you will have the opportunity to complete a self-reflection and respond accordingly.  Reflect on and respond to how the feedback provided can help you improve your academic performance and contribute to your professional growth. In addition to your self-reflection, you will also conduct an independent literature review of relevant scholarly, peer-reviewed sources. Choose sources that support your ideas for enhancement of the course competencies and content areas where you have identified opportunities for improvement. For example, if your professor indicated you need improvement in the area of team leadership, select sources that would enhance your knowledge and skill base in this area.

Part 1: Self-Reflection

You will complete a self-reflection using the
Feedback Review Template. The
Feedback Review Template is located in this week's Course Resources area.  To complete your self-reflection, seek clarity from your professor about the areas you did not understand or areas that require improvement. Schedule a one-to-one meeting with your professor to discuss the feedback provided and to inform your responses.  Use the
Feedback Review Template to address the following themes:

· How you developed and demonstrated the course competencies tied to this course.

· The practical relevance of the course concepts and course competencies to your professional growth and career interests.

· Future considerations (e.g., key trends or challenges) to keep in mind as related to the topics covered in this course.

Be sure to comprehensively address the feedback provided by professor for your Week 7 Signature Assignment. As you complete the template, you will be asked to address the following questions:

· What are the areas in which your professor indicated you did well? Why do you think you did well in this (these) areas?

· What are the areas in which your professor indicated you need to improve? What can you do to improve in this (these) areas?

· How did your professor's feedback help your mastery of the course subject matter?

· How did the Week 7 Signature Assignment and this course help you to develop the course competencies?

· What aspects of this assignment can you take forward into your professional career and why?

· How did this course contribute to your understanding of possible trends and/or challenges related to the profession of health administration in the future? What do you need to consider regarding the course topic and why? 

Part 2:
Annotated Bibliography

You will prepare an annotated bibliography of three scholarly, peer-reviewed resources to enhance your knowledge base related to selected course competencies and that is informed by your self-reflection and professor feedback. The resources must be current, published within the past 3-5 years. Each annotated bibliography should be no less than three robust paragraphs. Use feedback from your professor to identify scholarly, peer-reviewed sources that can help you improve in the areas noted (e.g., assignment enhancement, personal and/or professional growth, topic of further interest prompted by the course content).

Use the annotated bibliography guide from Academic Success Center (ASC)* to ensure that your annotated bibliography meets all requirements.

Remember, for this assignment, each annotated bibliography should be no less than three robust paragraphs. 

Assignment Requirements

Be sure to submit your assignment as one single document with two parts:  Part 1 will be a summary of your self-reflection using the
Feedback Review Template and Part 2 will be your annotated bibliography.

 Title page


Part 1: Based on the completion of your
Feedback Review Template, provide a self-reflection summary on how this course contributed to your professional growth and your understanding of future trends and/or challenges related to your profession (2 pages minimum).

· Include your
Feedback Review Template.

Part 2: An APA-formatted annotated bibliography with 3 peer-reviewed resources addressing one or all of the following areas:

· Enhancement of the Assignment

· Personal/Professional Growth and Development

·  Topic of interest for further investigation based on course content

 References (additional to the annotated bibliography)
