What is a portfolio? 

A professional portfolio is a collection of materials that document the nurse’s competencies and illustrate the nurse expertise.

Why is the portfolio important?

A portfolio is a presentation of you as a professional APRN. Portfolio development at postgraduate level emphasizes linking theory and practice and stresses the importance of reflection on practice. The portfolio can also be used by nurses to develop their clinical career pathways and encourage personal development planning (Joyce, 2005)

As a student entering the health care field, it is important to know about other members of the team who work with electronic health record systems and manage and analyze health information.   In Unit 1 you identified a health information/health informatics profession to describe or a person who works in health information/health informatics to interview.   This could be a health care information technician, health information manager (HIM), health information analyst or health informatics director or manager. 

Prepare a 2-paragraph summary of the health information position that you have researched.

Include the following:

• position title and type of facility/facilities where this position would be found
• education required for this position
• training and professional development needed
• responsibilities of the position
• certifications or credentials required
• professional organization memberships available
• How would you find others who work in the profession?
• What methods or resources are available to network with other health information/health informatics professionals for employment opportunities and advancement in the field?
• What challenges do those in the profession find in their role?

Discussion Question  In this course, each of you will be developing a research proposal. Our focus this week is to identify a problem specific to your role option that is amenable to an innovative solution.

Based on your specialty role option (i.e., Nurse Practitioner, Nurse Educator, Nurse Informaticist, Nurse Administrator), identify a potential problem (topic) that you would like to investigate through nursing research. Begin by reading the American Association of Colleges of Nursing’s (AACN) position statement on nursing research (Nursing Research).  

Next explore South’s Online Library and conduct a search to locate a minimum of three nursing research articles that have addressed the problem you have identified. The literature may not be older than 5 years. After reading the literature respond to the following: 

1. Note your role specialization (Family Nurse Practitioner) and briefly describe the problem you are interested in researching and why this is of interest to you. 

2. Discuss your library search strategies and briefly summarize the literature you reviewed. Focus your discussion on the “problem” and how the literature you identified provides evidence of the existence of the problem. 

3. Include in your discussion a potential innovation that you might consider as a solution to the problem identified. 

4. Include citations/references in APA style format, using citations where appropriate.

5. Complete two pages not including the cover page.

1  Define transcultural nursing and how that can be applied in your daily nursing practice.

2.  Define anthropology and culture and how it is related to the practice of nursing care.

3.  Describe the contributions of Dr. Madeline Leninger in the development of cultural nursing.

4.  Mention and discuss some assumptions about transcultural nursing.

As stated in the syllabus present your assignment in an APA format word document Arial 12 font attached to the forum in the discussion board titled “Week 1 discussion questions”.  A minimum of 2 evidence-based references (except the textbook) is required.  You must post two replies to any of your peers sustained with the proper references.  A minimum of 1100 words is required.
