PURPOSE
The purpose of the iCARE Paper assignment is to explore the concept of interprofessional teams and patient outcomes. Nursing supportive actions of compassion, advocacy, resilience, and evidence-based practice will serve as a way to apply care concepts.
COURSE OUTCOMES
This assignment enables the student to meet the following course outcomes:

CO6: Plans clinical practice activities that integrate professional nursing standards in accordance with the Nursing Code of Ethics and the American Nurses Association (ANA) standards of practice. (PO#6)
DIRECTIONS
Getting Started: Interprofessional teams are part of practice trends we see developing in all aspects of care delivery. Consider you own work environment (or recent clinical setting). PLEASE USE AN INTENSIVE CARE SETTING
For this assignment, consider the concept of interprofessional teamwork and patient outcomes.
Look to your current workplace as an example. (THE ICU)
Apply the components of the iCARE concept to interprofessional teams in a short paper. (Body of the paper to be 3 pages, excluding the title page and references page)
iCARE components are:
C ompassion
A dvocacy
R esilience
Evidence-Based Practice (EBP)

Explain how the project scope was clearly defined at the beginning of the project or how it was not clearly defined.
Consider a past situation where you were a member of a team that was involved in a project. Ideally, this situation should be where you currently work. However, you can use any situation or experience in your personal life as well. If you are at a loss of thinking of a scenario then you may choose to make up a project that may be of interest to you instead.
Describe the overall project goals and your role in the project.
Explain how the project scope was clearly defined at the beginning of the project or how it was not clearly defined.
Prepare and share with us a listing of deliverables from your project. Offer at least 5 deliverables and two work packages per deliverable. Identify the WBS code accordingly. For example: (see attached screen shot)
Finally, complete a quick google search, and locate a website (that appears credible) that presents an example WBS. Share the link with your peers along with a sentence or two related to how their WBS aligns to the typical structure of a WBS as presented in the week introduction
Create a semiannual production plan for your new business idea, product, or service using notional demand and inventory data
Create a semiannual production plan for your new business idea, product, or service using notional demand and inventory data. This initial production plan is based on your market estimates of what you intend to sell and produce. The final paper is managing the project to implement your intended new product/service into the marketplace, but you have to create a production plan that is supported by your market forecasts, and that is the purpose of this assignment.
Prompt: The plan should replicate the techniques in the text and can be submitted in a basic tabular (spreadsheet) format. It must include the following:
? Estimates of labor hours consumed
? Estimated number of worker requirements considering a standard work week, current inventory levels, receipts of new inventory during each month, and varying demand levels for each month of production For service businesses that do not include inventory or raw goods for the assembly line, the inventory of the support materials/equipment or consumable materials can be used. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
? Create a semiannual production plan using notional demand and inventory.
? Estimate the labor hours consumed.
? Estimate the number of worker requirements considering a standard work week, current inventory levels, receipts of new inventory during each month, and varying demand levels for each month of production.
analyze a fictional dyadic (two person) relationship from a movie.
For this assignment, you will analyze a fictional dyadic (two person) relationship from a movie. Analyze the relationship between two characters using what you consider to be the three most appropriate concepts, theories, perspectives from the class that apply to the relationship (example: their nonverbal communication, conflict style, and interpersonal needs). Note taking while watching the movie is stronglyencouraged.
You will need to define each key word from the text that you use in this paper and then explain how the concept was presented or enacted in the film. It is impossible to cover everything from the text in your paper, so be sure to select and focus on three concepts from the text that you believe were most aptly demonstrated and describe how these concepts were manifested in the film.
