INTRODUCTION
, The Clinical Judgment Measurement Model (NCJMM) provides nursing students different
ways to develop care plans to reinforce clinical thinking and clinical reasoning that will
prepare them to apply concepts from their didactic and lab courses in the clinical setting. In
this course you will select one of the patients you cared for in your clinical intensive and
complete the clinical judgement concept map for your performance assessment using the
“Concept Map Template” in the Web Links section. You will need to collect information
during your clinical intensive using the “NCJMMT Template” in the Web Links section. Do
not include patient identifiers. During your clinical intensive, your clinical instructor will
serve as a resource to guide you as you complete this assignment.
REQUIREMENTS
Your submission must be your original work. No more than a combined total of 30% of the
submission and no more than a 10% match to any one individual source can be directly quoted
or closely paraphrased from sources, even if cited correctly. The similarity report that is provided
when you submit your task can be used as a guide.
You must use the rubric to direct the creation of your submission because it provides detailed
criteria that will be used to evaluate your work. Each requirement below may be evaluated by
more than one rubric aspect. The rubric aspect titles may contain hyperlinks to relevant portions
of the course.
Tasks may not be submitted as cloud links, such as links to Google Docs, Google Slides, OneDrive,
etc., unless specified in the task requirements. All other submissions must be file types that are
uploaded and submitted as attachments (e.g., .docx, .pdf, .ppt).
Concept Map:
Create a concept map using the “Concept Map Template” in the Web Links section below.
Please see “Concept Map Directions” in the Web Links section below for further detail.
There is also an example provided in the Web Links section below, titled “Concept Map
Example,” that you can use for reference. Note: Do NOT include patient identifiers.
Please note that you may complete your template in handwritten format as long as your
writing is legible and in print, not cursive.
A. In the box labeled “Disease Process/Pathophysiology/Risk Factors,” describe the pathophysiology
related to a disease process, disorder, or injury. Include the admitting diagnosis as well as the
causes and risk factors for the disease process.
B. In the box labeled “Recognizing Cues,” identify at least 4 critical cues that are relevant to the
