Intra professional collaboration

Students are required to maintain weekly reflective narratives throughout the course to combine into one course-long reflective journal that integrates leadership and inquiry into current practice as it applies to the Professional Capstone and Practicum course.

In your journal, you will reflect on the personal knowledge and skills gained throughout this course. The journal should address a variable combination of the following, depending on your specific practice immersion clinical experiences:

  1. New practice approaches
  2. Intraprofessional collaboration
  3. Health care delivery and clinical systems
  4. Ethical considerations in health care
  5. Population health concerns
  6. The role of technology in improving health care outcomes
  7. Health policy
  8. Leadership and economic models
  9. Health disparities

Students will outline what they have discovered about their professional practice, personal strengths and weaknesses that surfaced, additional resources and abilities that could be introduced to a given situation to influence optimal outcomes, and finally, how the student met the competencies aligned to this course.

Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders.

If I were to choose a professional journal to present my EBP project, I would choose the Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders.  This journal is published monthly and focuses on all aspects of autism spectrum disorders and developmental disabilities that are related to autism.  I feel that presenting the information that I have gathered about the importance of improving communication among adults with ASD would be beneficial to those who would read this journal.  I feel that my topic would fall under the category of a review article that they state are solicited in target areas of interest (Journal of autism and developmental disorders, 2019). 

If I were to present my EBP project at a conference, I believe that the Navigating Autism Today conference sponsored by Autism Alliance of Michigan would be a good place to do this.  This is a conference for families as well as professionals.  Families get to attend for free so I feel there would be a better turnout due to that.  Presenting to a mixture of family and professionals I feel would be important because if those with ASD are taught from an early age how to use augmented alternative forms of communication like the AAC board then when they reach adulthood it would already be a part of their normal communication.  If they were to enter into a group home or attend a medical appointment as an adult and had already been using these alternative forms of communication since childhood, that would make life much easier on them and those taking care of them to know what their wants and needs were to reduce stress, anxiety, and behaviors.
