APN history and Beatitudes Presentation

A most important foundation for writing it is that you understand the terms (words) used in the Greek text of the New Testament, and do NOT rely on your understanding of these words in a modern, secular context.

The objective of this presentation is to discuss your knowledge of the Beatitudes as written in the Bible in Matthew 5:1-16. Were these mandates displayed in the works of early advance practice nurses?

The presentation also should discuss how the Beatitudes would or should affect your prospective Psychiatric Advance Practiced Nurse (APN) practice.

Please apply the following order:

First: Briefly provide some background on the Beatitudes. Be sure to look at the links below to study the Greek translations. This translation may provide a more deep meaning that other more secular works.

Second: Briefly provide some background on the history of APN practice. Tracy & O’Grady, Chapter 1 is an easy resource. Feel free to use any resource you like, however, to describe important actions in the development of the APN Roles.

Third: Discuss how the work of early APNs in the history of the development of APN roles reflects Beatitudes in the Bible as given in Matthew 5:1-16.

Analyze where in the history of APN were the Beatitudes demonstrated? Provide a few examples.

Fourth: How do you plan to (or how should/could an APRN) demonstrate “EACH” of the mandates of the Beatitudes in your psychiatric practice?

Discuss how exploring the virtues that are embedded in APN history and Beatitudes would or should affect your prospective APNs psychiatric practice.

This should be the heavier bulk of your paper.

See the rubric in your course syllabus.
