BSM Portfolio

Several projects completed in each of the BSM-Focused courses must be submitted to NCM as part of a portfolio. These items are listed in the Course Syllabi. Once they are completed and approved by your Online Learning Coordinator, you may submit these through the BSM Portfolio Course within the Canvas system.

BSM-MW480: Evidence-Based Evaluation of Critical Client Care

This is the only course which will still be completed with the BSM student's community preceptor and for which a gradesheet is submitted via Canvas. The BSM program requires 10 COC primary births past licensing or certification which will be mentored by the student's preceptor during a comprehensive chart review in course MW480. This requirement may be completed concurrently with enrollment in the BSM program. The BSM candidate thoroughly evaluates these charts analyzing possible risks and provision of all areas of care for each of the 10 clients, identifies problems, and implements changes in their practice and methods to improve future care. The BSM candidate and mentoring preceptor together complete a chart review for each of the 10 births.
