In this first chapter of your Capstone Project, you are focusing on the nature of the problem, the individuals affected by the problem, and the need of a solution. A literature review will close Chapter 1 summarizing the overall evidence-based practice (or lack of) used to improve nursing practice or deliver patient-centered care.

The Problem Statement is a concise paragraph that outlines the gap in nursing practice or care. Subsequent paragraph(s) in this section demonstrates the student using information from the literature review to support the student’s argument that a gap exists with nursing care delivery for the population and care delivery setting (validation of the problem).

The Need Statement outlines what needs to change within the nursing practice or patient delivery method to improve the status quo to meet current evidence-based practice.

The Population and Setting section should include any epidemiological data that supports the student’s argument that this population requires a nursing intervention and the need for change is appropriate in the clinical setting described.

The Literature Review is a systematic review of current literature on your subject area. The literature review should provide an overview of the problem as related to your identified population and setting (examples: acute care, community care, hospice, home health). In the literature review, the student should use the literature to provide an overview of the nursing problem, the current evidence-based practice expectations for the identified population and care setting, and what gaps exist in current nursing practice that lead to problems in care delivery.

Write a paper on Resource/Profit model.

Consider and identify a good or service to which you are familiar. This could be a good or service that the company, which you are employed, offers or a good or service another organization offers.

Conduct research to locate information on the Resource Profit Model (RPM), created by Byron J. Finch. The RPM is a framework that illustrates important elements of Operations Management. Within this model, there are three primary components, to consider: Foundational Success, Components of Value, and Managing Resources to Create Value.

You are tasked with the responsibility of using these three components as a guide to complete this paper. Listing these three above components as subtitles will help aide you in this effort.

In the Foundational Success section, be sure to address

· profitability,

· strategy,

· and value.

Write a paper on Resource/Profit model.

In the Components of Value section, you will need to address the determination of

· cost,

· quality,

· and timeliness.

In the Managing Resources to Create Value section, you will discuss how the resources add value to the products or services.

You will essentially write a seven-page paper about how this good or service fits within the model. Be sure to address each element associated with the model. Using subtitles will help you achieve this.

EN106 First Year Writing II: Academic

ESSAY #1: RHETORICAL ANALYSIS

For Essay #1, please write a summary and analysis of any of the articles from Ch. 14 assigned by your instructor. Your audience is educated peers who have read the article, and are wondering what you think about it.

Your rhetorical analysis must include a summary of what the article argues, and also an analysis and evaluation of how well the article makes its points.

Your essay should include those elements of summary that Greene and Lidinsky recommend:

• the context of the article

• a clear statement of what you feel to be “the gist” of the article

• a description of the key claims of the article

• 1-2 relevant examples (direct quotations or paraphrases) from the article

As no summary is neutral, you must weave an analytical thread throughout your summary that suggests to the reader your judgment of the value of the article. You might consider including:

• examine how well the article appeals to its intended audience

• evaluate the author’s use of evidence

• identify the author’s purpose or motivation for writing

• point out the gaps and flaws in the article’s argument

Do not attempt to summarize every last detail of the article. Instead, focus on the gist of the article and your analysis of the how well the article supports its points.

Because an analysis is your perspective, it is appropriate to use “I” in this essay. However, do use “I” sparingly — your focus should be on analyzing the article, not on simply stating your own beliefs.

Business Case Assignment Instructions & Considerations
You have been tasked by Ms. Jackson with drafting a business case for this potential initiative, and she
has provided you with a template to use (see template attached to assignment instructions). She provides
you with the following comments related to each section of the template, but she tells you that you will

provided you with background information (see above case study material)

oriented, as they believe this will allow for more efficient and effective work, leading to
the company being able to grow in a more scalable manner.

believes the basic project would be an 8 – 10 week training program for all project
managers and team members that would train them in the adoption of a more mature
project management model, and it would include some mentorships by the trainer. She
believes this would cost a total of $175,000.
