Patient, Family, or Population Health Problem Solution
Develop an intervention (your capstone project), as a solution to the patient, family, or
population problem you’ve defined. Submit the proposed intervention to the faculty for
review and approval. This solution needs to be implemented (shared) with your
patient, family, or group. You are not to share your intervention with your patient,
family, or group or move on to Assessment 5 before your faculty reviews/approves the
solution you submit in Assessment 4. In a separate written deliverable, write a 5–7
page analysis of your intervention.
Please submit both your solution/intervention and the 5–7 page analysis to complete
Assessment 4.

In this assessment, you’ll develop an intervention as a solution to the
health problem you’ve defined. To prepare for the assessment, think

problem. Some appropriate interventions include the following:
Creating an educational brochure.
Producing an educational voice-over PowerPoint presentation or
video focusing on your topic.
Creating a teaching plan for your patient, family, or group.
Recommending work process or workflow changes addressing your
topic.
Plan to spend at least 3 direct practicum hours working with the same
patient, family, or group.

literature to inform your work and meet scholarly expectations for
