Nurse Anesthesia

Catalog description

The DNAP Senior Scholarly Project is a merger of students' accumulated knowledge base, didactic and clinical, relevant to the practice of nurse anesthesia in the Doctor of Nurse Anesthesia Practice (DNAP) curriculum. The Senior Scholarly Project requires that a practice-focused problem, issue, or concern be identified and examined in depth. The project will include application of an innovation or intervention suitable to an area of focus (e.g. organizational leadership, clinical practice, education, administration, etc.) that involves the development, evaluation, and dissemination of the project findings to a targeted audience. The DNAP Senior Scholarly Project is designed in a series of phases. Each phase is to be completed during an enrolled semester. Continuous enrollment in the project is required during the final year of the DNAP course of study. During each semester of enrollment in the DNAP Senior Scholarly Project, students will participate in project committee reviews lead by the assigned Advisory Committee Chair relative to the progression and completion of the project. The DNAP Senior Scholarly Project committee and the student share joint responsibility for the facilitation, progression, and completion of the scholarly project. Prerequisite: NURA 889, NURA 892, PRVM 800.
