Professional Development Portfolio 

Your Professional Development Portfolio will be a compilation of specific artifacts that should be suitable to present at a job interview or performance review. 

This component demonstrates your proficiency in program outcomes 5, and 9.

Program Outcome 5: Communication: Communicate effectively with all members of the healthcare team, including interdepartmental and interdisciplinary collaboration for quality outcomes.

Program Outcome 9: Professional Role: Incorporate the qualities, skills, behaviors, and knowledge required to function as a patient advocate, practice high quality care, assess and evaluate patient outcomes, and provide leadership in improving care.Compile your artifacts from the four previous assignments into a professional portfolio that you might share with a prospective employer, or a supervisor or manager. 

Imagine that you are either applying for a new position, advocating for a new role, or preparing for a year-end review. When applying for a new position, or advocating for a new role, it is helpful to anticipate the sorts of things a decision maker might be looking for in evaluating you for that particular position or role and to rehearse your responses.

Prepare a written summary of your proficiency in the format of interview questions and answers as follows:

Briefly describe a position, role, or project you would like to apply for or participate in. (I WANT TO BE A LABOR AND DELIVERY NURSE)

Alternately, imagine that you are preparing for a performance evaluation. List the questions that you imagine you might be posed. 

Respond to each question, highlighting accomplishments from your portfolio that demonstrate your level of competence.

Continue with a succinct summary of the qualities, skills, behaviors, and knowledge your bring to the tasks of patient advocacy, the practice of high quality care, the ability to assess and evaluate patient outcomes, and the leadership skills needed to provide improved patient care. (This should be 1–2 paragraphs in length.)

Conclude with a statement that reflects your understanding of the role of lifelong learning in your career goals.

Requirements: Times New Roman font, 12 pt. Double-spaced.

The first step of the EBP process is to develop a question from the nursing practice problem of interest.

Select a practice problem of interest to use as the focus of your research.

Start with the patient and identify the clinical problems or issues that arise from clinical care.

Following the PICOT format, write a PICOT statement in your selected practice problem area of interest, which is applicable to your proposed capstone project.

The PICOT statement will provide a framework for your capstone project (the project students must complete during their final course in the RN-BSN program of study).

Conduct a literature search to locate research articles focused on your selected practice problem of interest. This literature search should include both quantitative and qualitative peer-reviewed research articles to support your practice problem.

Select six peer-reviewed research articles which will be utilized through the next 5 weeks as reference sources. Be sure that some of the articles use qualitative research and that some use quantitative research. Create a reference list in which the six articles are listed. Beneath each reference include the article’s abstract. The completed assignment should have a title page and a reference list with abstracts.

Suggestions for locating qualitative and quantitative research articles from credible sources:

1. Use a library database such as CINAHL Complete for your search.
2. Using the advanced search page check the box beside “Research Article” in the “Limit Your Results” section.
3. When setting up the search you can type your topic in the top box, then add quantitative or qualitative as a search term in one of the lower boxes. Research articles often are described as qualitative or quantitative.

To narrow/broaden your search, remove the words qualitative and quantitative and include words that narrow or broaden your main topic. For example: Diabetes and pediatric and dialysis. To determine what research design was used, review the abstract and the methods section of the article. The author will provide a description of data collection using qualitative or quantitative methods.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

PICOT Question to use: In healthcare workers (P), how does handwashing according to WHO guidelines (I) affect the incidence of hospital- acquired infections (O) ?

The (C) and (T) are optional- you really don’t need them for your question

To complete this Assessment:

Reflect on your current healthcare organization and think about potential opportunities for evidence-based change.

Identify a clinical issue of interest that can form the basis of an evidence-based change.

Develop a PICOT question to address this issue.

Using the keywords from the PICOT question, search at least four different databases in the Walden Library to identify at least four relevant peer-reviewed articles at the systematic-reviews level.

Create a PowerPoint presentation by addressing the following in 8–14 slides:

Briefly describe your healthcare organization, including its culture and readiness for change. (You may opt to keep various elements of this anonymous, such as your company name.) (1–2 slides)

Describe the current problem or opportunity for change. Include in this description the circumstances surrounding the need for change, the scope of the issue, the stakeholders involved, and the risks associated with change implementation in general. (2–3 slides)

Propose an evidence-based idea for a change in practice using an evidence-based practice approach to decision-making. Note that you may find further research needs to be conducted if sufficient evidence is not discovered. (3–5 slides)

Be sure to include a description of the PICOT question that you developed for your search, and which databases you consulted.

Describe your plan for knowledge transfer of this change, including knowledge creation, dissemination, and organizational adoption and implementation. (1–2 slides)

Describe the measurable outcomes that you hope to achieve with the implementation of this evidence-based change. (1–2 slides)

Be sure to provide APA citations for the supporting evidence-based, peer-reviewed articles that you selected to support your thinking.
