Overview: In Capstone, you will construct and implement an evidence-based, small-scale change project based on an identified nursing issue in your workplace or the community. The change component of your project consists of implementing a strategy to address your selected problem or issue. Strategies used in the Capstone course at Galen are educational strategies, policy strategies, protocol strategies, or technology strategies. The Capstone Project requires a minimum of 48 hours to successfully pass the course. Ideally, at least half of this time should be spent in the clinical or field setting with your preceptor. You will spend project time doing activities such as planning, assessment, literature review, coordination, and implementation.
