Overview/Description: The final written
assignment will synthesize what you have
discovered about the different advanced
practice roles and scope of practice found in
the master of nursing curriculum: APRNs, nurse
educator, nurse informaticist, and nurse
administrator/executive. You will review all
roles and then examine the specialty for which
you were admitted, focusing on the scope of
practice, core competencies, certification
requirements, and legal aspects of practice for
that specific role. You will also identify the
practice environment and population you will
be working with, as well as peers and
colleagues. In addition, you will discuss your
future leadership role and participation in
professional organizations.
Your paper is to be based on current literature,
standards of practice, core competencies, and
certification bodies for your chosen role. The
paper should be 6-8 pages excluding the title
and reference pages, and APA format is
required.
