APN Capstone Portfolio Part_2 - March 2020 | NR 506 APN Capstone Portfolio Part_2 - Updated APN CAPSTONE PORTFOLIO PART 2 APN Capstone Portfolio Part 2 The purpose of this APN Capstone Portfolio is to highlight my professional growth and expertise by providing evidence of the knowledge I have learned. This paper will demonstrate how IWrite an introduction paragraph that introduces the topic of your paper and summarizes the key points that will be discussed. Hint: state that you have met Chamberlain University’s program outcomes (PO), the Essentials of Master’s Education (MSN Essentials), and the National Organization of Nurse Practitioner Faculties (NONPF) Core Competencies. I State that this paper will identify and explain how you have met each of these objectives were met by providing exemplars of myyour graduate work, reflect on how meeting these objectives have transformed meyou into a prospective masters-prepared nurse, and present how the concepts from your work interrelate. Exemplar 1: NR500 Week 3 Addressing Bias PaperWrite the Name of the Piece of Work Copy the exemplar here. Although experiences can shape our development of a bias mindset; it can be challenging to not permit these biases to affect how we interact and care for patients. By analyzing and reaffirming our personal biases during the week 3 paper assignment I was able to be better prepared to be a leader with integrity and selfawareness to provide optimal care to all patients. Self-awareness is a process of objective examination of oneself and is one of the important components in nurse-client relationship. Addressing bias is an important step in creating self-awareness. Although experiences can shape our development of a bias mindset; it can be challenging to not permit these bias thoughts to affect how we interact and care for patients. 3APN CAPSTONE PORTFOLIO PART 2 TThis attribute reflects the cognitive exploration of own thoughts, feelings, beliefs, values, behaviors, allows one to understand nd how they can affect others (Rasheed, 2015). Therefore, it is critical that if any negative attitudes toward any patient strategies must be developed toand utilize to eliminate them. This paper also allowed me to develop such strategies to use to ensure I am not being bias towards any patient. For example, at the end of each day on the drive home I self-reflect on the care I provided my values, behaviors, feelings, and thoughts of how I would feel if I was the patient so that I could provide better care the following day. This paper also allowed me to reflect on unconscious stereotyping and prejudice contribute to healthcare disparities to advocate for fairness and the elimination of such negative behavior and mindsets. According to Philip, Chadee, and Yearwood (2014), study found that in Trinidad and Tobago discrimination is still present especially against people diagnosed with HIV/AIDS and at-risk groups. This negative attitude therefore creates barriers to accessing important testing and treatment services. Another study sought the view from nurses of what it means to provide care to the obese. Marques, De Melo, and Dos Santos (2014), study also found several bias and negative attitudes toward obese patient that included: being obese is excessive, it is not healthy; Providing care to the obese is a structural issue; Obese patients are troublesome, they require care, no big deal; Providing care to the obese requires teamwork. These negative views can interfere in the care provided and vital to eliminate as advanced practice nurses. This reflective paper also allowed me to understand, value cultural differences, and the importance of cultural competence. As we move to increasingly diverse society; the U.S. Census Bureau projects that the United States will be a majority-minority nation 4APN CAPSTONE PORTFOLIO PART 2 by 2043, and bBeing cCultural competence is vital. Cultural competencethrough training also encompasses the needed knowledge about diverse people and their needs, attitudes that recognize and value difference, and flexible skills to provide appropriate and sensitive care to diverse populations (Kools, Chimwaza, & Macha, 2015). Organizations that wish to stay relevant in a society with rapidly changing demographics are learning that organizational cultural competence is the first step in reaching and employing diverse audiences. Cultural competence also enables effective teamwork in cross-cultural communities or programs by giving individuals and organizations the framework for operating in varying cultural contexts. Culturally competent organizations are equipped to work with people who have different backgrounds, attitudes, and worldviews thus building a larger, more powerful organization (Mcmullen-Bushman, 2017). constituency Identify and Explain This exemplar shows evidence that I have met program outcome number #3 engage in lifelong personal and professional growth through reflective practice and appreciation of cultural diversity.

Not all dissections are symptomatic. Indeed, it is not uncommon to discover silent arterial defects during routine arterial monitoring. Vascular EDS can cause symptoms of arterial dissection and pain secondary to the tear in the arterial wall, to capsular stretch, or related to ischemia in organs or limbs located distal to the dissection. In the event of arterial rupture, interventional therapy may be indicated. Partial ruptures may be treated medically but require close monitoring to detect recurrent bleeding. Non-contained ruptures or clinically unstable aneurysms (pre-rupture) or false aneurysms most often require intervention (Byers et al., 2017). Identify and Explain By completing the NR 507-Disease Process Presentation I was able to meet program outcome #1- Relate research findings to the management of patients with complex pathophysiologic dysfunction. By researching recent evidence on Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, I was able to relate signs and symptoms to the disease, develop treatment options, and management strategies for care for those who may present with possible Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and therefore meeting program outcome #1. By completing the assignment I was able to present the most recent evidence on Ehlers Danlos Syndrome as it relates to the signs and symptoms of the disease, develop treatment options, and management of care for those who may present with possible Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and present my finding as a narrated PowerPoint to my peers. Therefore, meeting the MSN Masters essential IV and the NONPF core competencies #4.
