This Short Answer Assessment presents a series of prompts based on current standards and prevailing perspectives on patient safety and quality of services.

Instructions

Before submitting your Assessment, carefully review the rubric. This is the same rubric the assessor will use to evaluate your submission and it provides detailed criteria describing how to master the Competency with a Grade A. Many students find that understanding the requirements of the Assessment and the rubric criteria help them direct their focus and use their time most productively.

• Be sure to use scholarly academic resources as specified in the rubric. This means using Walden Library databases to obtain peer reviewed articles. Additionally, .gov (government expert sources) are a quality resource option. Note:  Internet and .com sources do not meet this requirement. Contact your coach or SME for guidance on using Library Databases.
• Carefully review the rubric for the Assessment as part of your preparation to complete your Assessment work.

APA FORMATTED INTEXT CITATION MUST BE PRESENT IN EVERY PARAGRAPH AND A FINAL REFERENCE PAGE MUST CONTAIN ALL RESOURCES
