Assignment
Purpose
The purpose of this assignment is to provide you with the opportunity to create a dissemination method for your evidence-informed quality improvement project. This presentation will provide you with the opportunity to communicate a scholarly project in a professional manner using the format of a poster presentation.
The dissemination of scholarly endeavors is an important aspect of advanced nursing practice and serves to expand the knowledge and understanding of colleagues, organizational leadership, stakeholders, interprofessional partners, and professional community members.
While earlier assignments focused on comprehensively written artifacts, synthesis of information, and summary information, this assignment requires you to document your project in a complete yet concise manner, focusing on key points from the Project Closure Final Report.
