Purpose and overview:
During this course, you have participated in many rich discussions about the practice of nursing. In this paper, you will reflect over the discussions and select an exemplar to write about.
An exemplar is an account of a situation that stands out in one’s mind because of it’s significance. The situation is packed with meaning, positive or negative, and represents an important event, rite of passage, or occurrence to the persons involved. In essence, it is a story of something that has happened to you.
In the situation you describe, you will use both the ANA Scope and Standards of Practice, Standards of Professional Performance (2010) or the ANA Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements (2008) to analyze the situation and it’s meaning to you as a professional nurse. There are nine standards of professional performance, use numbers from 7 to 15, which you may reference in your exemplar. You may use one standard, or several. There are 9 statements in the Code of Ethics, again, you may use one or several to analyze the situation and the meaning to you as a professional nurse.
Guidelines for Writing the Leadership Exemplar

2. Reflect on course content. Relate insights learned as a result of the course. Apply readings or class discussions to the situation. Your insights can be demonstrated through discussion forums or reflection on the observations of nurse leaders.
3. Analyze the situation in light of the ANA Standards of Professional Practice (2010) or ANA Code of Ethics with Interpretive statements (2015). How were the Standards or Code of ethics upheld, met or not met? Provide specific examples, along with the number of the standard for which you are addressing. Be sure to apply readings or class discussions to the situation. Your insights can be demonstrated through discussion forums or reflection on the observations of nurse leaders.
