NR 500 Week-3 Assignment: Addressing Biases

Purpose
In today’s current healthcare settings, the increasing diversity, globalization, and expanding technologies produce complex ethical pressures that influence nursing practice and practice outcomes. To be effective in a master’s-prepared advanced nurse practice role it is important to understand personal values, beliefs, strengths, and limitations. The purpose of this assessment is to promote introspective reflection related to implicit and/or explicit personal biases. Students will develop a plan to reduce bias and promote personal and professional growth.

Requirements
Complete a self-inventory on personal biases you hold. The biases might be implicit or explicit.

In a one to two-page summary, address the following.
Identify your selected specialty track (education, executive, family nurse practitioner, healthcare policy, or nursing informatics).
Discuss how biases can impact outcomes in selected nursing practice settings.
Identify personal biases and attitudes toward people with various cultural, gender, sexual orientation, age, weight, and religions that are different than your own.
Select one bias that you have.
