NRSG413 Innovation in Nursing
Innovation is a vital concern in nursing. As healthcare moves increasingly to outpatient, patient-centered practice that is safe and effective, innovation in care delivery is essential. Consumers including payers, employers and patients are actively involved in making decisions about health care and lifestyle choices. This course is designed to support the nurse to systematically examine clinical practice issues such as workforce, manpower, collaborative care models, long term care, use of technology and underserved populations, and to apply systems thinking to create innovative practice solutions. Strategies for creativity and innovation will be applied to nursing practice. Assignments will be entered into an e-portfolio along with those of subsequent courses in the program. The e-portfolio will be updated with course assignments and professional and educational experiences as students’ progress through their program.
