NURSE 661 Capstone Nursing Portfolio by Williams
, NURSING PORTFOLIO 3
Introduction
Throughout these past three years, juggling a job, family and being a full-time student has
created a new insight on how important education is in professional nursing. Not only is
education important for the future of nursing, it also develops a skill that helps patients connect

personal portfolio will include 10 of the great works completed since beginning this program,
how all of Chamberlain University’s program outcomes (PO) were revealed, The Essentials of
Master’s Education (MSN Essentials), and the National Organization of the Nurse Practitioner
Faculties (NONPF) Core Competencies have been met.

Course Outcomes:
CO3: Explore how leadership styles influence healthcare delivery and organizations. (PO 4)
CO5: Reflect on personal and professional growth toward achieving competence as a family
nurse practitioner. (PO 3)

in the healthcare industry. The MSN Essentials prepared the BSN to the MSN level in a way that
evidence based- practice was used collect data, analyze, and formulate a plan. Program Outcome
for was achieved because the APN scope of practice was researched, and I was able to compare
other states with least practice restrictions compared to Missouri.
NONPF Ethics Competencies. Leadership Competencies
Concepts for Exemplar #1.
Leadership and management are skills nurses need to motivate and direct members of the health
care team to provide safe and effective client care. Ward’s (2009) definition of leadership as “the
