Doctoral nursing practice (DNP) is made up of many categories. Evidence based research
shows how a plethora of activities are carried out by professionals. A Direct Practice
Improvement Project (DPI) is recommended to be taken by the DNP student. This helps students
to be equipped with the necessary skills as well as competence needed (Bush, 2014). The nurses
are expected to meet the requirements of developing necessary experiences such as in
Antimicrobial Stewardship Program (ASP). This project is designed to show how patients who
are admitted to health care facilities that develops Healthcare Associated Infections (HAI)
(Pamer, 2016). The project will evaluate whether indulging in the practice of ASP programs will
help nurses to be prepared to take action. While preparing the project and getting grants that will
help to afford one the opportunity to be enlightened more in the skills and the essentials of DNP
(Bush, 2014). The reflective paper will be a reflection of information obtained.
Outcome 1
The DNP program is designed to help the DNP student to learn the essentials of putting
the project together and how to effectively gather information. Among them, the need for nurses
operating at this level to “integrate and apply appropriate nursing and science-based theories in
evaluation and analysis of health and health care phenomena as well as develop and implement
innovative practice approaches” is paramount (Hamric, Hanson, Tracy, & O'Grady, 2013). The
DNP prepared nurse is required to combine different theoretical concepts with what they have
learned throughout the DNP course (Hamric et al., 2013). The Health Belief Model (HBM),
“posits that messages will achieve optimal behavior change if they successfully target perceived
barriers, benefits, self-efficacy, and threat” (Jones, Jensen, Scherr, Brown, Christy, & Weaver,
2015). Using the Nightingale's model, it will allow staff to focus on the fact that a patient’s
