If so, what did you do for your capstone project in school? I feel like the MSN program I'm in has not prepared me for this at all. Any advice/suggestions would be much appreciated.

I assisted the chief nursing informatics officer with a big upgrade my organization was doing. I analyzed and presented survey data collected from end users before and after the upgrade for my Capstone presentation, but I wanted to learn and get experience, so I offered to help with whatever.  I also ended up creating a presentation on hospital acquired malnutrition to support a new decision support workflow for nurse driven diet orders that was part of the upgrade, and I was asked to do a blog post on informatics for the hospital's social media.
