  2. Objectives of this Panel Discussion • Identify the components of evaluation of the DNP degree in the context of structure, process and outcomes. • Describe the trajectory and potential path of the practice doctorate and DNP education as a result of feedback and involvement of DNP prepared nurses. • Describe obstacles and pathways of success for determining the future trajectory of the growth of the practice doctorate and development and impact on outcomes. 6th National DNP Conference 2013

  3. The DNP is a Degree, Not a Role 6th National DNP Conference 2013

  4. Reflecting on the DNP degree trajectory (so far) • The DNP degree was created and birthed by the AACN as the preparation for the practice doctorate • DNP education prepares nursing practice doctorates that include clinical and non-clinical roles • The key foundational theme of the degree is the word PRACTICE • Practice implies and connotes the need for measurable outcomes 6th National DNP Conference 2013

  5. Our World is Changing 6th National DNP Conference 2013

  6. “The changing demands of this nation's complex healthcare environment require the highest level of scientific knowledge and practice expertise to assure quality patient outcomes” (AACN, 2013). “DNP programs prepare leaders who will improve the quality of care, patient outcomes, and health policy that expands their impact on the health of society” (NONPF, 2005, para 3). 6th National DNP Conference 2013

  7. Self-Assessment as a Professional Hallmark Self-assessment is the cornerstone of self-directed learning, the hallmark of a self-regulating profession (Ericsson, 2009). 6th National DNP Conference 2013

  9. Brief history of DNP Conference Participation Addressing a DNP Agenda (continued) • 2010 DNP 3rd National Conference in San Diego again projected an agenda for DNPs similar to 2009 • 2011 and 2012 conferences included presentations on the revisit of these themes – no new or renewed thoughts were elicited 6th National DNP Conference 2013

  12. The Donabedian Model • Structure—how well do we use providers to deliver care? • Process—what are the health delivery processes that produce the best care and outcomes? • Patient Outcomes—ultimately how does structure and process affect the patient and society to improve health? 6th National DNP Conference 2013 Donabedian A.
