Part 1: Social Change Infographic
For this Performance Task Assessment, you will construct an Infographic to explore a social change topic, specifically the nurse's role; the connection to privilege, power, and bias; and how the topic may be addressed. You will also complete a Health and Wellness Plan to develop your own personal health and wellness plan.
Competency Description: Opportunities to enact social change exist all around us, from homelessness, community violence, and climate change to health equity and more. Each of us has the ability to foster change within ourselves, our communities, and our world. Change does not have to be on a large scale. Small changes can take place every day, be initiated by anyone, and have a significant impact on others.
