Your first assignment is due during Week 3 (September 17th). Here’s a couple of general comments – make sure you pay attention to the paper format requirements. Using headings is really helpful. And I highly encourage you to review the rubric as you work on your paper, after all, I use the rubric to grade your paper.
WRITTEN PHILOSOPHY OF NURSING PRACTICE
This Assignment, which you began in Week 1, is due by Day 7 of this week. As you complete your philosophy this week, take time to consider how one or more interdisciplinary theories—cultural competence, for example—may enrich or help clarify your philosophy.
