DNP PERSONAL Objectives 8400

This practicum will address the objectives for practicum hours as it relates to the DNP essentials, specialty area competencies, and also leadership skills experience.  In addition, it will explain a proposed time line for accomplishing the practicum hours.

 

1. By the end of this quarter, the student would have expatiated and gained extensive experience on leadership skills in the field of mental health nursing in the practicum setting and this will go a long way in creating positive change via the practice of newly established protocols.

2.Student will utilize existing evidence to develop a program that will help prevent polypharmacy in geriatric psychiatric patients. The eradication of polypharmacy in the geriatric population will significantly decrease avoidable adverse drug reactions, drug-drug interactions, costs incurred by patients and insurance companies and ultimately improve patients’ cognition and life expectancy.

3. By the end of this quarter, student will gain an understanding of education and evidence-based nursing strategies that will directly and significantly improve patient outcomes in the clinical setting.

4. My practicum hours will be goal-specific and solution-focused and will aim towards the evaluation of different research-based approaches for the treatment of the geriatric population.

5. Practicum experience allowed me to integrate a range of skills into a coherent professional identity as a nurse scholar-practitioner

 

This will be achieved in 6-9 weeks.

Assignment 2: Ethical (Moral) Relativism

Assignment 2: Ethical (Moral) Relativism

In America, many are comfortable describing ethics as follows: “Well, what’s right for me is right for me and what’s right for you is right for you. Let’s just agree to disagree.” This is an affirmation of what philosophers call individual or subjective moral relativism. In this understanding of relativism, morality is a matter of individual feelings and personal preference. In individual moral relativism, the determination of what is right and wrong in a situation varies according to the individual. Moral relativists do not believe in natural law or universal truths.

Cultural moral relativism puts culture at the forefront of relative ethical decision-making.  It says the individual must include the precepts of his or her culture as a prominent part of the relativistic moral action.

Lawrence Kohlberg, a prominent psychologist known for recognizing moral stages of development, takes it a step farther saying cultural relativists are persons stuck in the “Conventional Stage” of ethical development.

In your paper, please define individual moral relativism and cultural moral relativism in detail, noting how they differ from each other, their strengths and weaknesses, and give your position on Kohlberg’s stance on ethical relativism.
What aspects of ethical relativism do you identify and agree with? What aspects do you disagree with?  Give a personal example that illustrates your stance on ethical relativism, describing how you made a moral decision in an ethical dilemma.  Include at least two references to support your thoughts.

Post a 500-word paper to the M4: Assignment 2 Dropbox by due Wednesday, July 9, 2014. All written assignments and responses should follow proper citation rules for attributing sources. Please use Microsoft Word spelling/grammar checker. Be mindful of plagiarism policies.
