ISP Instructions Use this form to develop your Individual Success Plan (ISP) for NRS-493, the Professional Capstone and Practicum course. An individual success plan maps out what you, the RN-to-BSN student, needs to accomplish in order to be successful as you work through this course and complete your overall program of study. You will also share this with your preceptor at the beginning and end of this course so that he or she will know what you need to accomplish. In this ISP, you will identify all of the objectives and assignments relating to the 100 direct clinical practice experience hours and the 25 indirect clinical practice hours you need to complete by the end of this course. Use this template to specify the date by which you will complete each assignment. Your plan should include a self-assessment of how you met all applicable GCU RN-to-BSN Domains & Competencies (see Appendix A). General Requirements Use the following information to ensure successful completion of each assignment as it pertains to deliverables due in this course: Use the Individual Success Plan to develop a personal plan for completing your clinical practice experience hours and self-assess how you will meet the GCU RN-to-BSN University Mission Critical Competencies and the Programmatic Domains & Competencies (Appendix A) related to that course. Show all of the major deliverables in the course, the topic/course objectives that apply to each deliverable, and lastly, align each deliverable to the applicable University Mission Critical Competencies and the course-specific Domains and Competencies (see Appendix A).

Module 1 Discussion Name Affiliation Course Instructor Due date Module 1 Discussion Relationship between Mental Illness and Religion There are many facets and complex interactions between mental illness and religion. Understanding that there is no inherent conflict between mental illness and religious beliefs is crucial. How they interact varies widely based on personal experiences and cultural settings. The 44-year-old white Australian man's mental health problems and religious views are related to his belief that he was possessed by a spirit following his use of an Ouija board. His early use of the Ouija board, a device frequently connected to spiritual or paranormal activities, perhaps contributed to the onset of his delusions. His conviction that a spirit had taken over and was living inside him is in line with the signs of a mental illness, especially a delusional disease. This situation is not unusual since people struggling with mental health disorders often view what they are going through via the prism of their spiritual or religious beliefs. In this instance, the man's ability to understand his experiences from a religious perspective, despite his nonreligious upbringing, illustrates how flexible the relationship between mental illness and religion can be. Another facet of the relationship between mental illness and religion is illustrated by the man's decision to endure two exorcisms and seek assistance from a local church. Rituals and practices for dealing with alleged spiritual or demonic forces are included in many religious and spiritual traditions, and they can provide consolation to people going through upsetting symptoms (Cook, 2021). It is important to understand that although some might find that religious or spiritual support helps, it cannot replace evidence-based mental health care. The fact that the exorcisms, in this instance, were unable to relieve the man's symptoms emphasizes how crucial it is to receive the proper psychiatric evaluation and treatment.
