You are encouraged to complete the Managing Change activity. Completing course activities
before submitting your first attempt has been shown to make the difference between basic and
proficient assessment.
Scenario
Your nurse manager has been observing your effectiveness as a care coordinator and recognizes
the importance of educating other staff nurses in care coordination. Consequently, she has asked
you to develop a presentation for your colleagues on care coordination basics. By providing them
with basic information about the care coordination process, you will assist them in taking on an
expanded role in helping to manage the care coordination process and improve patient outcomes
in your community care center.
To prepare for this assessment, identify key factors nurses must consider to effectively
participate in the care coordination process.
Review the assessment instructions and scoring guide to ensure you understand the work
you will be asked to complete.
Allow plenty of time to rehearse your presentation.
Check that your recording equipment and software are working properly and that you know how
to record and upload your presentation. You may use Kaltura (recommended) or similar software
for your audio recording. A reference page is required. However, no PowerPoint presentation is
required for this assessment.
If using Kaltura, refer to the Using Kaltura tutorial for directions on recording and
uploading your video in the courseroom.
Note: If you require the use of assistive technology or alternative communication methods to
participate in this activity, please contact [email protected] to request
accommodations.
Complete the following:
Create a detailed narrative script for your video presentation, approximately 4–5 pages in length.
Include a reference list at the end of the script.
Supporting Evidence
Cite 3–5 credible sources from peer-reviewed journals or professional industry publications to
support your video. Include your source citations on a references page appended to your
narrative script. Explore the resources about effective presentations as you prepare your
assessment.
Grading Requirements
The requirements outlined below correspond to the grading criteria in the Care Coordination
Presentation to Colleagues Scoring Guide, so be sure to address each point. Read the
performance-level descriptions for each criterion to see how your work will be assessed.
Outline effective strategies for collaborating with patients and their families to achieve desired
health outcomes.
Identify the aspects of change management that directly affect elements of the patient
experience essential to the provision of high-quality, patient-centered care.
Explain the rationale for coordinated care plans based on ethical decision making.
Consider the reasonable implications and consequences of an ethical approach to care and
any underlying assumptions that may influence decision making.
Identify the potential impact of specific health care policy provisions on outcomes and patient
experiences.
What are the logical implications and consequences of relevant policy provisions?
Submit both your presentation video and script. The script should include a reference page. See
Using Kaltura for more information about uploading multimedia files. You may submit the
assessment only once, so be sure that both assessment deliverables are included.
Portfolio Prompt: Save your presentation to your ePortfolio. Submissions to the ePortfolio will
be part of your final Capstone course.
Nurses have a powerful role in the coordination and continuum of care. All nurses
must be cognizant of the care coordination process and how safety, ethics, policy,
physiological, and cultural needs affect care and patient outcomes. As a nurse, care
coordination is something that should always be considered. Nurses must be aware
of factors that impact care coordination and of a continuum of care that utilizes
community resources effectively and is part of an ethical framework that represents
the professionalism of nurses. Understanding policy elements helps nurses
coordinate care effectively.
