NR 667 FNP Capstone Practicum and Intensive (Narrative Analysis) Chamberlain College of Nursing
Narrative Analysis
This paper is a narrative analysis to exhibit how the Chamberlain University Masters of
Science in Nursing (MSN) program Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) track prepares the graduate
nurse to meet the university’s program outcomes (PO), the American Association of Colleges of
Nursing (AACN) Essentials of Master’s Education (MSN Essentials), and the National
Organization of Nurse Practitioner Faculties (NONPF) Core Competencies. This paper will
identify and explain how I have reached each of theses objectives by providing artifacts from my
graduate course work and reflect on how meeting these objectives have transformed me into a
prospective masters-prepared nurse.
Chamberlain University’s MSN/FNP Program Outcomes
Chamberlain University’s PO number one asserts that the masters-prepared nurse will
provide high-quality, safe patient-centered care that is grounded in holistic principles
(Chamberlain University, 2020). PO number two charges the maters-prepared nurse to provide a
caring environment that allows for the achievement of quality health outcomes (Chamberlain
University, 2020). The third PO encourages the masters-prepared nurse to engage in a reflective
practice and appreciate cultural diversity while participating in a lifelong pursuit of professional
growth and development (Chamberlain University, 2020). PO number four requires the masters-
prepared nurse to utilize professional values by continued scholarship and service in healthcare
(Chamberlain University, 2020). The final, fifth, PO challenges the masters-prepared nurse to
advocate for the positive health outcomes for patient through the practice of compassionate care
that is evidence-based and collaborative to exhibit advanced nursing practice (Chamberlain
University, 2020).
