Assignment Information
You have made it to the final part of the Social Justice Project. In this part of the project, you will be presenting a plan to politically advocate on behalf of the population that is plagued with the healthcare problem that you identified in the first part of this project. You will be taking this opportunity to propose the evidence-based solutions that you identified in part two of the project. Of the many possible ways to advocate, you will choose strategies that you feel are most appropriate and will be most effective. This is the most exciting part - very similar to developing a plan of care once you have assessed your patient and decided upon which evidence-based interventions to deliver! Completion of this assignment demonstrates achievement of the following course outcome:
Evaluate the political advocacy process to identify opportunities for nursing professional involvement.
Delineate strategies that nurses can use to engage in advocacy for healthcare policy to support equity, access, affordability, and social justice for consumers and in support of the nursing profession.
