NURS 6220 Performance Metrics in Outcomes Management

This is a capstone course that demonstrates student attainment of Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) competencies supporting outcomes management. Students will create numerous comprehensive dashboards across the continuum that incorporates quality indicators with outcome metrics supported by professional standards and best practices. Demonstrating advanced clinical knowledge, students will critique the delivery of care within the acute care environment and develop clinical questions targeting opportunities to improve the care process for the adult and geriatric patient populations. Rounding out this course, students expand their management acumen by discovering the "evidence" in evidence-based design initiatives to support efficiency, productivity, and positive patient outcomes across the CNS spheres of influence.
