Hallmark Assignment: Community Project Presentation Overview
You must complete 22.5 hours of practical experience for this course. It is NOT “hands-on” but instead is “research-based.” You will log the time spent researching/collecting the data for the Hallmark (worksheets located in week 7 module). You will log all time on the Practicum Time Log (also located in week 7’s module). This form will be turned in week 13 to complete the course. In addition, you are required to interview a public health nurse (PHN) which may count toward these practicum hours. We will offer 3-4 interview opportunities (dates and links will be provided in the announcements) or you may interview a PHN nurse in your community. Only 1 hour per interview up to 5 total interviews may be counted toward the practicum hours.
