The MSN-prepared nurse is uniquely positioned to coordinate care for patients as they transition through the healthcare continuum. Effective leadership across the continuum is essential for the delivery of safe, high-quality, person-centered care. The purpose of this assignment is to create a case scenario that applies the principles of care coordination for a patient transitioning across different points of care delivery. Implications for advanced nursing practice will be integrated throughout the scenario.

Part 1: Case Scenario
