The capstone preview project focuses on a problem or issue identified during the executive practicum experience and suggests an evidence-based solution to the identified problem or concern. The capstone project’s topic should provide sufficient depth and scope to integrate evidence-based practice, multidisciplinary theory, and advanced nursing practice concepts into areas specifically related to the role of the nurse executive.
