Many have experienced in complex adaptive systems whether you realize it or not. Thinking about your
current or future practice area, identify an issue or concern. In your initial response, please describe the
concern. Does the concern primarily occur at the micro, meso, or macro level? How would you address this
issue? What impact might your solution have on the other levels of the system? In what ways could
interprofessional collaboration be used to resolve the issue?
In what ways could an understanding of systems theory and complexity science impact the role of the NP?
Take a few minutes to reflect on the NP practice model that is most predominant in advanced practice
environments you have observed. Are you satisfied with the demonstrated level of interprofessional
collaboration?
Briefly consider what appears to be the driving practice model for advanced practice nursing in your
state(VIRGINIA). If your state lags behind in its practice model language, what might you do to facilitate
change?
