31 May Week 1 Journal Entry
As a future advanced practice nurse, it is important that you are able to connect your classroom experience to your practicum experience. By applying the concepts you study in the classroom to clinical settings, you enhance your professional competency. Each week, you complete an Assignment such as a Journal Entry or SOAP Note that prompts you to reflect on your practicum experiences and relate them to the material presented in the classroom. This week, you begin documenting your practicum experiences in your Practicum Journal. Please use the Practicum Journal Template, located in this week’s Learning Resources.
To prepare for this course’s Practicum Experience, address the following in your practicum journal:
Select an aging theory to guide your practice.
Develop goals and objectives for the Practicum Experience in this course. Be sure to consider geriatric competencies.
Create a timeline of practicum activities based on your practicum requirements.
By Day 7 of Week 4
This Assignment is due. You will submit this Week 1 Journal Entry along with the Week 2 and Week 3 Journal Entries and Week 3 SOAP Note by day 7 of Week 4.
Assignment: Practicum – Week 2 Journal Entry
To prepare for this course’s Practicum Experience, reflect on implications of age-related changes in geriatric patients. Explain how you might differentiate between normal behaviors/disorders due to aging and abnormal behavior/disorders that are not age related. Include how functional assessments might help distinguish “normal” from “abnormal.”
By Day 7 of Week 4
This Assignment is due. You will submit this Week 2 Journal Entry, the Week 1 and Week 4 Journal Entries, and the Week 3 SOAP Note by Day 7 of Week 4.
Assignment: Practicum – Week 4 Journal Entry
Reflect on medication adherence issues you have encountered with geriatric patients in your practicum setting. Explain implications of these issues on patient health, as well as strategies to improve medication adherence for geriatric patients. If you did not have an opportunity to evaluate a patient with this background during the last 4 weeks, you can select a related case study or reflect on previous clinical experiences.
By Day 7 of Week 4
This Assignment is due. Please submit the Journal Entries (Weeks 1, 2, and 4), and the Week 3 SOAP Note by Day 7 of Week 4 (this week).
Note: Be sure to submit your Assignment to the appropriate submission link below.
Submissions should match the following:
Week 3 SOAP Note: Submit to the Week 4 Assignment – Part 1 submission link.
Weeks 1, 2, & 4 Journal Entry: Submit to the Week 4 Assignment – Part 2 submission link.
For the Journal Entries—which are assessed with a Satisfactory (S) or Unsatisfactory (U) score—the numerical grade will show as 0 points and the “S” or “U” will be posted in the Feedback area by your Instructor. These scores of 0 points do not affect your grade; they simply allow for a placeholder to place the “S” or “U” scoring. This concept also applies to Weeks 7 and 10.
