Master of Science in Nursing and Doctor of Nursing Practice Clinical Curriculum Map
Background:
The development of a comprehensive and structured clinical curriculum map can outline the specific content covered throughout a nurse practitioner program and provide a method for identifying redundancy and omissions in the didactic clinical content.
Method:
A curriculum map outlining the specific clinical content covered in each didactic course in a Master of Science in Nursing and Doctor of Nursing Practice advanced practice program was created. The curriculum map incorporated accreditation standards, certification testing domains, and common primary care diagnoses.
Results:
A curriculum map supported the development of organized, consistent, and transparent clinical didactic content across courses and the program. The curriculum map allows for frequent curriculum and course review and updates to help meet program and accreditation standards.
Conclusion:
The development and implementation of the clinical didactic curriculum map facilitates the integration of core clinical content in an organized manner that builds learning and prepares future nurse practitioners. [J Nurs Educ. 2018;57(7):440-445.].
