PEP

 

• Review your Clinical Skills Self-Assessment Form you submitted last  week and think about areas for which you would like to gain  application-level experience and/or continued growth as an advanced  practice nurse. How can your experiences in the practicum help you  achieve these aims?  
• Review the information related to developing objectives provided in  this week’s Learning Resources. Your practicum learning objectives that  you want to achieve during your practicum experience must be: 
  • Specific  
  • Measurable  
  • Attainable  
  • Results-focused  
  • Time-bound 
  • Reflective of the higher-order domains of Bloom’s taxonomy (i.e., application level and above)  
• Discuss your professional aims and your proposed practicum objectives with your Preceptor to ascertain if the  necessary resources are available at your practicum site.  
• Select one nursing theory and one counseling/psychotherapy theory to  best guide your clinical practice. Explain why you selected these  theories. Support your approach with evidence-based literature.
• Create a timeline of practicum activities that demonstrates how you plan to meet these goals and objectives based on your practicum  requirements.
