RUA: Concept Map Guidelines

Purpose
This assignment is designed to extend the learner’s use of concept mapping as a tool for clinical care planning. The nursing process continues to provide the foundation for organizing information and thought, whereas the mapping becomes the process for intentional critical thinking and clinical reasoning.

Course outcomes: This assignment enables the student to meet the following course outcomes:
CO 1: Demonstrate the nursing process while providing basic care to individuals and families reflecting different stages of the life span in the extended care, acute care, and community-based settings. (PO 1)
CO3: Demonstrate communication skills necessary for interaction with other health team members and for providing basic nursing care to individuals and families. (PO #3)
CO4: Incorporate critical thinking skills into clinical nursing practice. (PO #4)

Due date: Your faculty member will inform you when this assignment is due. The Late Assignment Policy applies to this assignment.

Total points possible: 100 points
Preparing the assignment
Follow these guidelines when completing this assignment. Speak with your faculty member if you have questions.
1. Choose an individual for whom you have cared in the clinical setting.
2. Create a concept map based on the complete physical assessment you performed while providing care using the provided power point template.
a. Components of the concept map
i. Individual’s information (10 points/10%)
1. Age
2. Medical diagnosis
3. Brief review of underlying pathophysiology
*List what functional changes are happening
*List process that initiated and maintained disorder or disease
ii. Assessment Data (15 points; 15%)
1. Include all assessment data, not simply information that supports the selected nursing diagnoses
Inspect
Palpation
Percussion
Auscultate
Neurological Exam
iii. Nursing Diagnoses (15 points/ 15%)
1. Select three nursing diagnoses to addresses
a. One must be an actual problem
b. One must address a psychosocial need
c. The final must be a high priority for the individual
iv. Linkages Within and Between Diagnoses (5 points/5%)
1. Concept map demonstrates relationship within and between the nursing diagnoses.
v. Planning (15 points/15%)
1. Prioritize diagnoses to reflect needs of the individual
2. Set realistic outcome measurement
3. At least two (2) scholarly, primary sources from the last 5 years, excluding the textbook, are provided
vi. Implementation (15 points/15%)
1. Interventions are individualized for patient-provide rationale
2. Interventions support achievement of selected outcome measurements-provide rationale

vii. Evaluation of Outcomes (5 points/15%)
1. Determine if outcomes were met.
2. Provide evidence that supports that determination.
3. Describe what changes, if any, are needed to promote expected outcomes in the future.
viii. Safety-Communication-Infection Control 16 points/16%)
a. specific elements of communication used when providing care,
b. safety concerns related to the individual for whom you cared, and
c. infection control practices followed while caring for this patient.
ix. APA Citations and Writing (4 points/4%)
a. References are submitted with assignment.
b. Uses appropriate APA format and is free of errors.
c. Grammar is free of errors.
d. Spelling is free of errors.
e. Mechanics of writing are free of errors.
x. Power Point Template (0 points/0%) (deduction if not used)
a. Used provided Power Point Template for assignment completion or an alternate that is approved by faculty.
