Need RN-BSN capstone project ideas

Hello fellow nurses,

I'm in the last term of my RN-BSN program and can't seem to come up with a Capstone project idea. I currently work part-time in LTC/Skilled Nursing but would like to be gaining acute care experience in a hospital work place. The company I work for has both hospitals and LTC facilities, so I'd like to do a project that would help me land a transfer into an acute care position after graduation in June. I left a message for the Med-Surg nurse manager at one of the nearby hospitals and offered to do my capstone on a topic of importance to her specific clinical area. She hasn't responded.

Any ideas? I need to get going on this and I'm just spinning my wheels.
try leaving a message with the nurse educator for that floor. in my experience, he/she usually is the one that has a lot of projects to complete for the floor. one nurse manager i know gives out several projects a semester to bsn students, rn new graduate residents, and rns (those trying to improve points for his/her career ladder) to complete them more efficiently. it is a win-win situation for all involved!!! gl!:d

What about reaching out to a Nurse Manager in a specialty area in one of the hospitals? They may have a better idea of something they might want. Do any specialties interest you? If so I would start there. You will find something. It is hard to make suggestions as it is kinda a personal goal and I know nothing about you. Do you know any BSN nurses who are closer to you that you could ask?
