This document provides instructions for an assignment on leading person-centered care for a nursing leadership course. Students are asked to create a 2-page case scenario describing a patient's transitions across 3 healthcare settings and integrating 2 principles of care coordination. In a 2-4 page paper, students must explain the transitions, identify outcomes and strategies for each, discuss the nurse leader's role in coordination, and apply 2 coordination principles to the case scenario. The assignment aims to address learning outcomes related to planning resources for safe, quality care and analyzing processes to ensure safety and quality nursing care.

Module 2. Final due date is Sunday 11:59 pm MT at the end of Module 7. Total Points
Possible: 150 Points Assignment Overview Part 1: Case Scenario Create a case scenario for a
patient who experiences transitions across three points of healthcare delivery. For example:
a patient who is admitted through the Emergency Department, rushed to surgery, and
transferred to the surgical intensive care unit; or a patient who transitions from an assisted
living facility to the hospital and then to a longterm acute care facility. These are just two
examples, however you can be creative as you create the case scenario. The case scenario
should be no more than 2 pages, double spaced, in length. The case scenario should come
immediately after the title page in your assignment. Be sure to include the following: Details
regarding the patient and related health concerns Description of transition across three
specific points of care delivery (such as described above) • Integration of at least two
principles of care coordination demonstrated by nurse leader(s) within the scenario • • Part
2: Written Paper In a 2 to 4- page paper, address the elements below. Use a minimum of 4
peer-reviewed scholarly sources, current within 5 years, to support your work. See rubric
for specific, required content criteria within each section of the paper: 1. Provide an
introduction to the paper. 2. Explain the transitions in point of care delivery portrayed
within the case scenario. Discuss the variables that could impact safety, quality, and
continuity of care for the transitions described. Identify one specific patient outcome for
each transition that occurs, and explain why that outcome is appropriate. Identify one
evidence-based strategy to support outcome achievement and person-centered care for
each of transition that occurs. 3. Discuss the role of the nurse leader to assure safe, high
quality, person-centered care across the points of care delivery described in the case
scenario. Identify and apply at least two principles for care coordination to assure safe, high
quality, person-centered care as portrayed in the case scenario. 4. Provide a conclusion to

CLINICAL HEALTHCARE ENVIRONMENT Module 2 Assignment: Leading Person-centered
Care Guideline and Rubric DUE 11/05/2022 PURPOSE The MSN-prepared nurse is uniquely
positioned to coordinate care for patients as they transition through the healthcare
continuum. Effective leadership across the continuum is essential for the delivery of safe,
high quality, person-centered care. The purpose of this assignment is to create a case
scenario that applies the principles of care coordination for a patient transitioning across
different points of care delivery. Implications for advanced nursing practice will be
integrated throughout the scenario. COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES Through this
assignment, the student will address the following course learning outcomes: • • CO 2:
Determine competencies for planning, monitoring, and evaluating resources that ensure
safe, quality person-centered care. (PO 1) CO 4: Analyze continuous improvement processes
at the microsystem and mesosystems levels based on patient care outcomes and current
