Title: The Importance of Essentials 5 and 6 and QSEN Safety and Quality Improvement in Advanced Practice Nursing

Scenario: You are an advanced practice nurse working with patients. You are training new nurses and nurse practitioners on quality, safety, and interprofessional partnerships.  
Write a 2-3 APA page (not including title page and reference pages) paper focusing on the importance of Essentials 5 and 6 and QSEN Safety and Quality Improvement for nursing practice. Answer the following questions in your paper:
Why are quality and safety important enough to be considered Essentials AND a QSEN module? 
How do these Essentials have an impact on patient care? Why should we still have to emphasize “safety” in advanced practice nursing? 
How are the two Essentials (5 & 6) linked? Do poor interprofessional partnerships affect patient safety? 
What will be your role in ensuring that these competencies are incorporated into clinical practice and/or upheld by the staff? What can you do to ensure that your staff stays updated on competencies?
Incorporate a minimum of 3 supporting academic peer-reviewed sources (journal articles)
