MY INITIAL RESPONSE (use this info in your responses to the questions above and you can feel free to freelance):

Hello everyone!
I am Teresa Morris, an active-duty Air Force member who has served for 18 years. My career field is in administration. Due to the many changes in my field over the years, I have obtained skills in solving everyday end-user computer and printer errors as a client support administrator. Additionally, due to my clearance level, I have been fortunate to tap into some classified military programs to expand my personnel, security, physical security, industrial security, and information security profile. Lastly, my skills as a senior leader in the administrative career field has given me the keen ability to operate in highly stressful positions, successfully juggle more than one task at a time, solve complex problems swiftly, utilize my resources advantageously, and consistently motivate my people to get the job done. By the same token, one of the improvements I can work on is delegating tasks, as sometimes I feel that I can do a lot myself and not pawn it off on others when they are there to help me.
If an opportunity for selection as a team leader arises, I would be an excellent international team leader for Learn E-Now because I have a wealth of experience in close training, communicating, and working with diverse crowds in different countries worldwide as an active duty military member. Moreover, I now have abundant experience in utilizing platforms such as Microsoft Teams or Zoom to communicate, train, and collaborate with teams worldwide now more than ever since COVID-19 shut down the world and changed how organizations conduct business. We had to find ways to complete the mission despite being unable to be in the office daily physically.

Develop a 20-minute presentation for nursing colleagues highlighting the fundamental principles of care coordination. Create a detailed narrative script for your presentation, approximately 4-5 pages in length.

Introduction
Nurses have a powerful role in the coordination and continuum of care. All nurses must be cognizant of the care coordination process and how safety, ethics, policy, physiological, and cultural needs affect care and patient outcomes. As a nurse, care coordination is something that should always be considered. Nurses must be aware of factors that impact care coordination and of a continuum of care that utilizes community resources effectively and is part of an ethical framework that represents the professionalism of nurses. Understanding policy elements helps nurses coordinate care effectively.

This assessment provides an opportunity for you to educate your peers on the care coordination process. The assessment also requires you to address change management issues.

This assessment provides an opportunity for you to educate your peers on the care coordination process. The assessment also requires you to address change management issues.

Preparation
Your nurse manager has been observing your effectiveness as a care coordinator and recognizes the importance of educating other staff nurses in care coordination. Consequently, she has asked you to develop a presentation for your colleagues on care coordination basics. By providing them with basic information about the care coordination process, you will assist them in taking on an expanded role in helping to manage the care coordination process and improve patient outcomes in your community care center. To prepare for this assessment, identify key factors nurses must consider to effectively participate in the care coordination process.

Supporting Evidence (NO OLDER THAN 2018)
Cite 3–5 credible sources from peer-reviewed journals or professional industry publications to support your video. Include your source citations on a references page appended to your narrative script. Explore the resources about effective presentations as you prepare your assessment.
