Assignment:

For the first section of your final capstone project you will develop a proposal for an intervention plan to fulfill a need within a specific population. This assessment is meant to capture your initial thoughts about the need and impacting factors to help focus your in-depth analysis

Develop a five to nine page problem statement that presents information related to the problem-intervention-comparison-outcome-time (PICOT) approach to nursing research.

Your problem statement will focus on presenting information related to the problem-intervention-comparison-outcome-time (PICOT) approach to nursing research. You will also present a brief literature review that supports the need you identified in your problem statement and the appropriateness of your broad intervention approach. Provide enough detail so that the faculty member assessing your problem statement will be able to provide substantive feedback that you will be able to incorporate into the other project components in this course, as well as into the final draft of your project.

At minimum, be sure to address the bullet points below, as they correspond to the grading criteria. You may also want to read the scoring guide and the Guiding Questions: Problem Statement (PICOT) document (linked above) to better understand how each criterion will be assessed.

Part 1: Problem Statement (two to three pages)

Need Statement (One paragraph).

Analyze a health promotion, quality improvement, prevention, education or management need.

Population and Setting (One to two paragraphs).

Describe a target population and setting in which an identified need will be addressed.

Intervention Overview (One to two paragraphs).

Explain an overview of one or more interventions that would help address an identified need within a target population and setting.

Comparison of Approaches (One to two paragraphs).

Analyze potential interprofessional alternatives to an initial intervention with regard to their possibilities to meet the needs of the project, population, and setting.

Initial Outcome Draft (One paragraph).

Define an outcome that identifies the purpose and intended accomplishments of an intervention for a health promotion, quality improvement, prevention, education, or management need.

Time Estimate (One paragraph).

Propose a rough time frame for the development and implementation of an intervention to address and identified need.

Part 2: Literature Review (10-15 resources, three to six pages)

• Analyze current evidence to validate an identified need and its appropriateness within the target population and setting.
• Evaluate and synthesize resource from diverse sources illustrating existing health policy that could impact the approach taken to address an identified need.

Address Generally Throughout

Communicate problem statement and literature review in way that helps the audience understand the importance and validity of a proposed project.
