DNP Essay
The DNP program focuses on nurse leadership and provides the student with the opportunity to develop and implement a quality improvement project within a selected practice site. Even though the quality improvement project does not include direct patient care, the intervention should focus on patient outcomes. An example would be to develop a protocol or policy and lead other health care professionals to implement the intervention at the practice site. Reflecting on the focus of the Doctor of Nursing Practice submit an essay that discusses all three of the following topics:
1. How obtaining a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree will align with your current or future role as a Nurse Leader?
2. The knowledge, skills, and/or abilities you possess will enable you to successfully earn the DNP degree.
3. As a DNP student, you will be required to complete a scholarly project. Identify a problem or a topic of interest in nursing that you may propose for the DNP scholarly project.
