Module 07 Assignment – Assigning Tasks Policy

Module 07 Content

  1. You work in a nursing home as an LPN. Recently, you were reviewing the employee handbook and discovered there is not a clear policy on the role of the practical nurse in assigning tasks for client care. You decide to create a new policy to be added to the employee handbook in your nursing facility. The information to be added to the handbook will be used to train and prepare incoming LPNs. To create the policy, utilize resources including the Nurse Practice Act and be sure to follow your state’s requirements when creating the policy.

    The following information should be contained within the new policy for the handbook:

    • Identify other employees to whom the LPN can assign tasks
    • List and describe the tasks that can be assigned
    • Explain the rationale behind the role of the practical nurse and the risks posed if LPNs do not adhere to their role
    • Resources

Topic: Political Activism

Assessment Description

Many careers are influenced by government regulations. Health care is one of those careers, similar to education, in which workers are hesitant to be involved in the political process. In order to advance the cause of quality patient care, it is very important that doctorally prepared advanced practice nurses get involved in the political process.

This assignment will prepare you to determine what policy you may want to be involved in changing by creating an objective policy brief. A policy brief is a concise summary of a particular issue, the policy options to deal with it, and some recommendations on the best option. This assignment consists of two parts.

General Requirements:

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:

  • Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments.
  • This assignment requires that at least three additional scholarly research sources related to this topic and at least two in-text citation from each source.
  • You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite to verify similarity scores & plagiarism.

Directions:

Part 1: In 500-750 words, address the following:

  1. Identify a current health care policy in your community or state.
  2. Research the issue and determine your personal stance based on the current evidence.

Part 2:

  1. Locate the contact information for a state, local, or federal official for your area.
  2. Locate information regarding the official’s stance on the issue.
  3. Send the official a letter or email that explains your position and offers suggestions on how the official should move forward with the agenda from your policy brief.
