Class, 

The following is your scenario for the Unit 3 RUA:

You have been called into your emergency department to respond to a mass casualty that occurred as a result of a bus accident involving local students. You and your coworkers begin to receive messages from friends and family members in the community asking for details and confirmation of the nature of the incident, and if specific students and teachers were involved. In addition the local news media begins calling the nursing station asking for details every few minutes. 

Healthcare is readily embracing any technology to improve patient outcomes, streamline operations, and lower costs,
but we must also consider the impact of such technology on privacy and patient care.

Choose an ending to the scenario, and construct your paper based on those reflections.

Choose one of the following outcomes:
1. A HIPAA violation occurs, and client data is exposed to the media.
2. A medication error has harmed a client.
3. A technology downtime that impacts patient care occurs, and an error is made.
4. A ransomware attack has occurred, and the organization must contemplate paying the ransom or lose access to
patient data.

Advocacy is a critical skill for APNs to have for promoting solutions to health concerns within a community. Identify a health issue in your community or state. Discuss a systems-level advocacy strategy to address the concern. In the strategy, students should identify specific groups or individuals that they would target as well as how they would target these individuals. For example, a student may choose to contact a legislator with a letter-writing campaign and would describe strategies for implementing that campaign.

Description

Points: 300 | Due Date: Week 7, Day 7 | CLO: 5, 6 | Grade Category: Assignments

Assignment Prompt

Applying the principles from the Nursing Leadership and Health Policy learning modules students will explore the role of the Registered Nurse Leader in policy advocacy.  Groups of two to three students will create a policy challenge presentation with a focus on collaboration. All members must participate to earn points. Each group member will receive an individual grade for the assignment and will participate in a rated peer evaluation of each group member. The final grade for each student will be based upon the presentation and peer evaluations and determined by the course professor.  The course professor will randomly assign students to a group and post the assigned groups and student names in a course announcement in week one. Contact peers in your assigned group by university email in week one to begin planning and collaborating on the project between weeks one and seven.

Directions:

1. Interview a nurse leader from a professional nursing organization to collect ideas for the project. 
2. Utilize your readings, research and resources to build the content. This should be a collaborative team process. Divide the workload for the project in an equitable manner among team members. 
3. Each group will design a voice- narrated Powerpoint or Prezi  to create a presentation and provide an overview of a grassroots policy challenge (present or past) that the identified organization supports. The policy challenge can  be a local, state or federal policy issue. Create a title slide or page with the full names of each group member. Include a final slide or page with key references cited in APA 6th ed. format.
4. Each presentation should be between 5-10 minutes in length. Rehearse and time the presentation in advance to ensure that the 10-min. time limit is not exceeded. 
5. One person from each assigned group will post the group signature assignment for his/her group as an attachment in the week seven discussion forum on or before Day 3, Week 7. 
6. Each team member will submit his or her group powerpoint presentation individually in the D2L assignment upload box for grading. 

Each presentation will need to include (but is not limited to):

• Brief description of the policy challenge the team has chosen and the nursing association that was identified.
• Describe the “Agenda” for the identified policy challenge. Include how the policy issue was identified, (Did the organization complete a review of the literature, an environmental scan and/or a SWOT analysis, etc.?)
• Brief description of key stakeholders (those who will be affected and those who can effect change), ie, interest groups, opposition groups/individuals or coalitions.
• List the different strategies that the organization plans to or has already used to inform/lobby legislators, ie, e-mail campaign, in-person visit, testimony, protest, etc.
• List and describe any non-legislative strategies that were used or plan to be used to support the initiative.
• Describe where this policy challenge is in the legislative process and its implications for the future.
