To Prepare

Review your Clinical Skills Self-Assessment Form you submitted last week and think about areas for which you would like to gain application-level experience and/or continued growth as an advanced practice nurse. How can your experiences in the practicum help you achieve these aims? 

Review the information related to developing objectives provided in this week’s Learning Resources. Your practicum learning objectives that you want to achieve during your practicum experience must be:

Specific 

Measurable 

Attainable 

Results-focused 

Time-bound

Reflective of the higher-order domains of Bloom’s taxonomy (i.e., application level and above) 

Note: Please make sure your objectives are individualized and outlined in your Practicum Experience Plan (PEP). While you may add previous objectives to continue to work toward. You must have 3 new objectives for each class, each quarter.

Discuss your professional aims and your proposed practicum objectives with your Preceptor to ascertain if the necessary resources are available at your practicum site.

Select one nursing theory and one counseling/psychotherapy theory to best guide your clinical practice. Explain why you selected these theories. Support your approach with evidence-based literature.

Create a timeline of practicum activities that demonstrates how you plan to meet these goals and objectives based on your practicum requirements.

Assignment

Record the required information in each area of the Practicum Experience Plan template, including 3–4 measurable practicum learning objectives you will use to facilitate your learning during the practicum experience.

By Day 7

Submit the Practicum Experience Plan for assessment and Faculty approval. 

When your Instructor has approved your plan, forward the signed PEP to your Preceptor and retain a copy for your records.
