Hello,
I was doing a Google search for anything related to WGU and the C854 course in completing my MSN in informatics... I am currently an RN BSN in the ED and am interested in pursuing a career in NI in some capacity. Prior to becoming a nurse, I was an embedded software engineer developing and writing software for microprocessor based electronics.. I had been in the field from 1990-2008 and have developed various systems from, Modems to Mailing Systems to Automobile Infotainment systems. I am very familiar with the SDLC approach to development although when I was in the field. the 'S' stood for Software instead of S-ystem. I see that you graduated from WGU with a NI degree... and could use some help with trying to put together the various components of my Capstone ... such as the Onedrive structure from which to attach the various CPE requirements for my portfolio... and was wondering if there was someplace to see an example of someone else's attempt at this .. I already have an idea of identifying a Nursing Gap that requires an EHR/EMR modification .. just kind of stuck as to the format these CPE components need to be developed ... such as the SWOT table ... and such ... any help or suggestions would be Greatly appreciated..
Best Regards,

Hi, I am new to this group and noticed you said you graduated from WGU with and MSN in Nursing Informatics. I am currently in this program now, in my first term, last class C158-Organizational Leadership and Interprofessional Team Development. I started in March and am really just taking my time, although I wish I had time to complete the entire program in two terms. Anyhow, any advice and input on how to proceed with this class will be helpful. Every paper or powerpoint presentation I have submitted has come back needing revision. I have never had any problems with writing papers...ever, so this program has been quite discouraging. I completed my BSN with Purdue University Global and although it was a lot more work and time consuming, I had a lot more motivation to complete it, I guess because I always had great feedback on my work. Anyhow, please, please give me some advice as to what I should do to proceed in my classes and get that motivation I need.
Thank you,
Gina
Hi,
I am a nurse preparing for the J. A. Thomas (JATA) pre-hire test for a CDI position. What should I focus on? I am thinking of making flash cards with Diagnosis on one side and the Signs/Symptoms on the other. Would that be a good approach for this test?
Thanks for any advice!
