WK2 Discussion - AACN Essentials Self-Assessment and Patient-
Centered Care
After you have completed your self-assessment, answer the following
questions:
1. If you are willing, please share your total score on the AACN Essentials
Self-Assessment. If you do not wish to share your score, give a general
description of your current KSA levels.
2. Candidly identify and share with your classmates areas where
knowledge, skills or abilities (KSAs) are lacking?
3. Describe the relationship between the AACN Essentials and your new-
found knowledge about Patient Centered Care. Are there opportunities for
you to improve?
Professor and classmates,
After carefully reviewing and completing the AACN Essentials Self-
Assessment and Patient-Centered Care I gave myself a score of 40. Through
the assessment I identified many areas I need to improve as I did not score
“Excellent” in any area, and especially under Essentials listed under roman
numeral V; Healthcare Policy, Finance, and Regulatory Environments, where I
scored poorly. This helps me understand areas where I need to improve, and
educate my self on. The Essentials under roman numeral V are areas that I
am not very familiar with as I only deal with patient care. But after reading
the assignments this week I have realized how important it is to have
knowledge in these areas even though I am not directly involved. I scored
“Very Good” under Inter professional Communication and Collaboration for
Improving Patient Health Outcomes. As part of the Trauma dedicated
program at our Trauma Level I Center, it is key to have inter professional
communications, and collaborations with different members of the team to
have positive patient outcomes for the critically ill patients encountered.
Everyday a trauma gets paged, these skills are put to use. These traumas
end with debriefings, and the produce educational meetings, based on real
scenarios, which helps to hopefully achieve and improve patient health
outcomes. Standards in this particular area are key. The American College of
Surgeons (ACS) verifies and monitors a center’s standards and competency,
if at any time these standards are not met the accreditation can be lost.
Such standards and others set by different authority bodies are what guides
our nursing practice (CCN, 2017).
As a nurse I love my job and is very important to me to maintain a great
level of professionalism and professional values as listed in Essentials VIII. I
believe that all around I do a great job in these, but can not say that it is
excellent or perfect all the time. I love empowering and educating students
in how rewarding my job is, and how important it is to maintain a great
