VCI Summary

The preparation of the virtual check-in meeting was the idea that guided the DNP project process and the additional milestones. The key discussions as the summary below shows are the discussions on the focus of the project, the implementation plans, and the roles of the team. During the session, collaboration and comprehension between the student, the mentor, and the preceptor regarding the quality improvement objectives of the project could be facilitated. Significant changes were made to ensure development by the five courses of the DNP project pathway.

Meeting Details

The virtual check-in (VCI) meeting was organized on the 18th of October, 2025, at about 12:10 AM through the Zoom platform. The meeting took about 5-6 minutes and involved three individuals, i.e., Johana Paz (DNP student), Dr. Tricia Huey (faculty mentor), and Dr. Tomi (preceptor). The meeting included Dr. Huey discussing a proposed DNP project by Johana aimed at enhancing medication adherence within the mental population with the help of the National Council for Mental Wellbeing organizational toolkit. The session was closed with the next steps, and the professor invited the learner to conclude the discussion and start working on the next paper concerning the project.

Summary of Key Points

The virtual check-in (VCI) meeting was arranged on the 18 th of October, 2025, at an approximate time of 12:10 AM, using the Zoom platform. The duration of the meeting was approximately 5-6 minutes and included three people, i.e., Johana Paz (DNP student), Dr. Tricia Huey (faculty mentor), and Dr. Tomi (preceptor). The discussion also involved Dr. Huey on a proposed DNP project by Johana to improve medication adherence among the mental population through the National Council for Mental Wellbeing organizational toolkit. The following steps were used to close the session, and the professor asked the learner to end the discussion and begin working on the next paper dedicated to the project.

Reflect on Project Progress

The completion of Assessment 1 (project, preceptor, and practicum interest form) and the successful organization of the initial virtual check-in (VCI) meeting are the milestones that demonstrate significant progress. The project focus was very well formulated during the meeting, to increase medication adherence among mental health patients by using the National Council for Mental Wellbeing organizational toolkit. Dr. Tricia Huey was able to give constructive feedback on the feasibility, relevance, and alignment of the project with the DNP program outcomes. There was also a collegial, efficient communication between the VCI participants, and the learner showed a desire to engage the audience through asking questions about project planning, the PICO framework, evidence-based support, and the expectations of the IRB. Dr. Tomic ensured further commitment since she would act as the site preceptor, and a strong basis for working and subsequent implementation stages was created.

Areas of Uncertainty

There were many gaps in knowledge that the Virtual Check-In (VCI) meeting with Dr. Tricia Huey helped to clarify. The implementation phase was checked to happen in FPX 9030, which will take around 12 weeks, and FPX 9000 aims at topic development and planning. Dr. to achieve clarity and viability of the project, Huey recommended one clear intervention defined with the help of the National Council for Mental Wellbeing Organizational Toolkit. Instructions were given to find five to seven articles that would be scholarly in nature and support the effectiveness of the toolkit, and to seek the assistance of the librarian in the literature search. Lastly, Dr. Huey affirmed the project as a quality improvement project, ordered the completion of CITI training, and also provided steps to be followed to develop the PICO framework and the subsequent project paper.

Conclusion

The VCI meeting also gave much-needed clarification on how the project will be implemented, as it is now confirmed that the project will be implemented during FPX 9030. The advice was to follow one and distinctly defined intervention through the use of the National Council for Mental Wellbeing Organizational Toolkit. Dr. Huey determined the essence of collecting effective evidence to prove the effectiveness of the toolkit in enhancing medication adherence. Quality improvement vs. research was another aspect of the discussion taken into account in order to provide correct alignment of the project and ethical principles. The meeting culminated with the intentions to perfect her PICO, start the literature review, and create the following paper.
