Motivation to act; follow your passion

Description

Assignment: Please submit one APA formatted presentation (PowerPoint®, Prezi®, etc.) identifying and describing what health care or professional issue you are passionate about and relay any advocacy actions you took to influence this issue as well as what action you must follow in the future to evaluate if your efforts have had an impact on this issue. This policy change proposal could be with state Board of nursing, local boards, state representatives, or member of Congress/Senate. The assignment should have a minimum of four scholarly sources, in addition to the textbook. For this assignment, create a Microsoft PowerPoint® or OpenOffice Impress® presentation of 20 slides total, include an introductory slide, a reference slide and 18 content slides with an audio explanation and detailed speaker notes on all content slides. Over the next few weeks, you will apply the concepts learned by collaborating with or at least contacting a policy maker about an issue that you think would advance nursing scope, practice or culture or improve patient care and outcomes in a positive way. You will be working on this same project over the next 5 weeks.
