The Rn To Bsn Program At Grand Canyon University Meets The Requirement

The RN to BSN program at Grand Canyon University meets the requirements for clinical competencies as defined by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) and the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN), using nontraditional experiences for practicing nurses. These experiences come in the form of direct and indirect care experiences in which licensed nursing students engage in learning within the context of their hospital organization, specific care discipline, and local communities. This assignment consists of both an interview and a PowerPoint (PPT) presentation.

Assessment/Interview

Select a community of interest in your region. Perform a physical assessment of the community using the "Functional Health Patterns Community Assessment Guide." Conduct a direct assessment of the community and gather information about its health status, social structures, and environmental factors. Additionally, interview a community health or public health provider within that community to understand their role, experiences, and perspectives related to community health issues. Develop interview questions aimed at exploring the provider's responsibilities and insights into community health challenges. Complete the "Provider Interview Acknowledgement Form" prior to conducting the interview and submit it separately as required.

Compile key findings from the community assessment and the interview, ensuring to include the interview questions asked. These findings will inform and complement your PowerPoint presentation.

Create a PowerPoint presentation of 15-20 slides (excluding title and references slides) that describes the community of interest. The presentation should include:

- A detailed description of the community and its boundaries, including demographic information such as population size, geographic location, geopolitical features, educational levels, ethnic composition, social interaction types, common goals, interests, barriers, and health challenges, with an emphasis on social determinants of health.

- A summary of the community assessment, highlighting major funding sources and partnerships that support health initiatives within the community.

- An overview of the interview with the community health/public health provider, emphasizing their role and insights.

- Identification of an issue within the community that represents either a gap in health services or an opportunity for health promotion.

- A conclusion that synthesizes key findings and offers impressions of the overall health status of the community.

Ensure that your presentation is well-organized, clearly written, and adheres to academic standards, with appropriate APA citations for sources used, following APA style guidelines. This assignment will be evaluated based on a rubric, so review the rubric prior to starting to ensure all expectations are met. Submit the assignment via LopesWrite, referencing the LopesWrite technical support resources if needed.
