Purpose
The purpose of this discussion is to reflect on opportunities to impact healthcare policies while further developing your own political competency using Warner’s article (2003) as a guide.
Instructions
Read the Warner (2003) article (located in Student Learning Resources). Reflect upon the development of your political competency and address the following:
1. Consider a time when there was an issue related to healthcare policy in your local, regional, or national community. If you pursued an opportunity to address the issue, describe the results. If you did not pursue the opportunity, describe the reasons.
2. Propose an area of your political competency that needs further development and an action you could take to become more politically competent to impact your selected population.

• Hello Class,
• This week your journey continues with an introduction to healthcare policy. The DNP-prepared nurse has a responsibility to understand the importance of health policy and the necessity of how to advocate for and formulate good health policy. This week, you will deepen your exploration of health policy as it relates to you, your practice, your community, and ultimately, our nation. You will reflect on the status of healthcare delivery in our country today as well as the political climate we face as healthcare professionals. This reflection will also be turned inward as you explore your own political competency and ways in which this competency can be expanded and enhanced as you consider your role in healthcare policy advocacy at your workplace and in the community at large. These reflections will provide you with direction, understanding, and knowledge to develop your own platform and position on important healthcare policy issues affecting the places where you live. Developing yourself as a healthcare policy advocate is critical to transforming outcomes. There is so much important work to be done, so let’s get started!1. Critically analyze the history, formation, and implementation of local, state, and national health policies from the perspectives of stakeholders and the profession of nursing. (PO 2)
