NRS 493 Topic 6: Capstone Change Project Implementation Plan II
In this topic, students will synthesize discovered evidence-based research that supports the intervention for
the capstone project change proposal into a literature review. The strategic plan will be reviewed to determine what resources would be required if the intervention were to be implemented.
Objectives:
1. Create a list of resources from the evaluation of your strategic plan that would be needed to implement the change proposal.
2. Synthesize discovered evidence-based research that supports the capstone project change proposal.
3. Integrate refective practice into the practicum refective journal.
4. Demonstrate interprofessional collaboration during the creation of the capstone project change proposal.

While the implementation plan prepares students to apply their research to the problem or issue they have
identifed for their capstone project change proposal, the literature review enables students to map out and
move into the active planning and development stages of the project.
A literature review analyzes how current research supports the PICOT, as well as identifes what is known and what is not known in the evidence. Students will use the information from the earlier PICOT Question Paper and Literature Evaluation Table assignments to develop a 750-1,000 word review that includes the following sections:
1. Title page
2. Introduction section
3. A comparison of research questions
4. A comparison of sample populations
5. A comparison of the limitations of the study
6. A conclusion section, incorporating recommendations for further research

Lopes Activity Tracker
Document your clinical practice hours using the Lopes Activity Tracker (LAT) in your student portal. Once you have opened the app, click on the link for your class to record your hours. Clinical practice hours should be documented and submitted within 48 hours of the clinical experience. After the hours have been submitted, the preceptor will verify the hours, which are then reviewed by the faculty.
Download the electronic summary of your practicum experience from the Lopes Activity Tracker. Save the fle and submit it though the assignment dropbox for faculty approval.
This report is to be submitted in every topic.
