Clinical Skills Self-Assessment
Before embarking on any professional or academic activity, it is important to understand the background, knowledge, and experience you bring to it. You might ask yourself, “What do I already know? What do I need to know? And what do I want to know?” This critical self-reflection is especially important for developing clinical skills such as those for advanced practice nursing.
The Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) Clinical Skills List and Clinical Skills Self-Assessment Form provided in the Learning Resources can be used to celebrate your progress throughout your practicum and identify skills gaps. The list covers all necessary skills you should demonstrate during your practicum experiences.
Just as you have in previous practicum courses, for this Assignment, you assess where you are now in your clinical skill development and make plans for this practicum. Specifically, you will identify strengths and opportunities for improvement regarding the required practicum skills. In this practicum experience, when developing your goals and objectives, be sure to keep assessment and diagnostic reasoning in mind.

In previous courses within this program, you learned about backlogs and their role in the closing phase of a project. These documents are typically used in hybrid or agile project management. A product backlog is a prioritized list of all product functionalities, gathered by the product owner from various stakeholders. A sprint backlog includes a subset of the product backlog items. It should detail the work to be completed for the functionality to be delivered at the end of the upcoming sprint. Both types of backlogs can affect the project schedule.
##### **Assignment Preparation**
On the [PM/490 Scenario](https://multimedia.phoenix.edu/cms/202551344) page, **review** the scenario from the previous assessments before reading the Week 4 addition.
**Review** the [Project Scope](https://multimedia.phoenix.edu/cms/202551237) document and the WBS from the Week 2 summative assessment. _If you received feedback that indicates corrections were needed to the Week 2 WBS, make these corrections first before continuing to use the WBS for this week._ Use the information to complete this assessment.
##### **Assignment Deliverable**
**Use** the [Backlogs](https://multimedia.phoenix.edu/cms/202551254) template to complete the product backlog for the product and the sprint backlog for the upcoming sprint that starts tomorrow.

#### **Assignment Support**
– To review the components of a product backlog, watch “Backlog Management” in this week’s Learning Activities folder.
– Review the following websites for more information on the backlog and sprint management processes.
Based on the variety of customers and stakeholders involved in this project, along with expected ambiguity in client requirements for the deliverables, the project management office (PMO) decided to use a hybrid project management methodology. This requires following an agile methodology that uses incremental and iterative approaches to gather client feedback throughout the development stages.
In this hybrid approach, the WBS will be used to create the product backlog. At this time, 25% of the deliverables have not been started, 50% are in progress, and 25% have been completed.
