Quality improvement is an important issue in professional
nursing today. In Milestone 1, the student will define a nursing care issue
(not a workforce issue such as staffing) from a current or former workplace or
clinical setting that could be impacted by improved quality. The student will
then provide details about this issue, as well as explain the reason this issue
was selected. Milestone 1 is due at the end of Week 1.

The instructor will score Milestone 1 and provide feedback
and a clear statement regarding the selected issue:
Accepted without revisions,
Accepted with revisions needed, OR
Not accepted.
If the issue needs revisions or is not accepted, the
instructor will indicate if the student should communicate further revisions to
the instructor. No additional points will be earned for revisions to Milestone
1 issue, but these revisions will greatly enhance success on later milestones.
