Homework: Benchmark- Creating Change through Advocacy
The purpose of this homework is to identify a problem or concern in your organization, local community, or state in which change can occur through advocacy and legislation.
Nurses often become motivated to change aspects within the larger health care system based on their real-world experience. As such, many nurses take on an advocacy role to influence a change in regulations, policies, and laws that govern the larger health care system.
Identify a problem or concern in your organization, local community, or state. Examples of problems relevant to nursing include, but are not limited to, title "nurse" protection, sharps injury prevention, nursing shortage, nurse well-being, valuation of nursing services, etc. Research the issue you selected and use the attached "Creating Change through Advocacy" template to complete this homework.
You are required to cite a minimum of three sources to complete this homework. Sources must be published within the last 5 years, appropriate for the homework criteria, and relevant to nursing practice.
