Homework: Nursing
In a 5 to 7 pages written homework, assess the effect of the patient, family, or population problem you've previously defined on the quality of care, patient safety, and costs to the system and individual.
Complete this homework in two parts.
Part 1
Assess the effect of the patient, family, or population problem you defined in the previous homework on the quality of care, patient safety, and costs to the system and individual. Plan to spend at least 2 practicum hours exploring these aspects of the problem with the patient, family, or group. During this time, you may also consult with subject matter and industry experts of your choice. Document the time spent (your practicum hours) with these individuals or group in the Capella Academic Portal Volunteer Experience Form. Use the Practicum Focus Sheet: Homework provided for this homework to guide your work and interpersonal interactions.
