Autobiography of a Drug

Hello everyone! I was first synthesized in 1985 by Dr. Bruce Roth. I did not get approved by the FDA until 1996. I became the best-selling drug of all time in the world, netting more than $125 billion in sales over a 14.5-year period. I work by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme found in the liver that plays a role in producing cholesterol. Several years later in the mid-2000’s, I was shown to contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes in some populations. The most common side effects that I cause are joint pain, diarrhea, heartburn, nausea, hyperglycemia, and muscle pains.

Who am I?

You should not use the name of the drug in the post. Your classmate will guess the name of the drug and justify the guess in their response post.

Reflect on Your Learning

Legal prescribing for the APRN can differ from state to state. Review your state board of nursing website (Links to an external site.) and review your state regulations. As you reflect on these regulations consider the following:  

Do you have education requirements for APRN prescriptive authority? 

Is the APRN considered a primary care provider? 

What level of autonomy does the APRN have? 

How will this impact your practice and the care you can give patients?

Module 8 Assignment 2

Capstone Preparation: Milestones

You have now begun Phase II of your nursing program, congratulations! Now is the time to think about finding a mentor for your Capstone experience and if an affiliation agreement is needed.  Please take the time to view the FAQ section in the MS Practice Experience Guide. This should lead you toward completing a successful Capstone project and experience in the near future.

Also, visit the My Practice Experience Marketplace. This course will be your “one-stop shopping” site for practice experience information as you take courses in the Bachelor, and/or Master of Science programs for the School of Nursing at Excelsior College. Here you can find a list of Capstone Practice Experience project ideas that can be done on-site or remotely with a mentor.

The Capstone is the final requirement of the nursing program. It provides students with an opportunity to apply knowledge and competencies gained throughout the program of study to actual or simulated situations. The capstone practice experience project is individualized, and the rate at which you’ll progress will depend on many factors such as your ability to find a mentor, your ability to manage your time, and your need for an affiliation agreement.

Excelsior’s capstone course occurs over a 15-week period and includes 247.5 practice experience hours. These hours include working on the project proposal, searching for supporting scholarly works, time spent with your mentor, independent project activities, writing a scholarly paper, preparing an abstract intended for submission to a professional organization and/or journal, and recording a presentation.

You can—and should—begin planning for your capstone and your need to find a Mentor as soon as you begin your Phase II courses. This guide  Download guideoutlines what you need to do to be ready to start your capstone and what the path through your capstone looks like. If the organization where you will be completing your Capstone Practice Experience requires an Affiliation Agreement, contact the School of Nursing as soon as possible. The Affiliation Agreement process can take up to 16 weeks to complete.

Affiliation Agreement: An affiliation agreement is a legal agreement between Excelsior College and the facility where you’ll be completing your capstone work. Not all facilities require agreements, but if they do, the agreement has to be approved by both the facility’s and Excelsior’s legal departments and can take up to 16 weeks to finalize. That’s why it’s so important to start prepping for your capstone as soon as you begin Phase II of your master’s program. Your potential mentor should be able to direct you to the department that can tell you if an affiliation agreement is needed.

IRB Application: Some facilities require students to obtain Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval prior to working on a quality improvement project. The primary purpose of the IRB is to protect the rights and welfare of human subjects and to ensure ethical principles are followed in research. While quality improvement projects are not research, in some cases they warrant IRB review to protect the rights of staff during a quality improvement. Does the facility where you will be working with your mentor and completing your practice experience require IRB approval?

Evaluation

This assignment is Pass/Fail and required to receive a grade in the course. Once you begin your Capstone course, you will gain approval for your Capstone Project and mentor, by submitting a project proposal. You will have the opportunity during the first three (3) weeks of the capstone course to refine your project proposal based on feedback from your capstone course instructor. Students cannot begin working on their Capstone Practice Experience with their Mentor until the Capstone course has officially started, they have received approval from their Capstone course instructor, and a fully executed affiliation agreement is in place, if applicable. Only the capstone instructor during your capstone course can approve your topic and mentor.
