Malpractice Case Study

The Malpractice Case Study Assignment will be based on the APRN malpractice case that you have been assigned from your faculty. You will have this assignment by the end of the first week to facilitate your research on the case.

Assignment Purpose: The purpose of this assignment is to demonstrate synthesis of APRN role components and competencies, professional standards of practice, scope of practice and standards of care. Refer to the following Buppert chapters as you critically analyze the malpractice case study. You are not limited to these resources, but these are required readings for Module 2. Should your assigned case involve a physician rather than an APRN, identify that fact and simply state that for the purpose of this assignment an APRN was substituted to facilitate answering the content relevant to the APRN role.
