- Instructions
Note: The assessments in this course are sequenced in such a way as to help you build specific skills that you will use throughout your program. Complete the assessments in the order in which they are presented.
Your evaluation plan design will be the forth section of your final project submission. The goal for this is to finalize the outcomes that your plan is seeking to achieve and to create a plan to evaluate the degree to which those outcomes were achieved after your intervention plan has been implemented. This will allow you and your care setting to determine the degree to which the plan was successful in addressing the identified need of your target population and setting.
You will also discuss ways in which your role allows you to lead change and drive quality improvement, and to potentially improve the project in the future. In addition, you will reflect on how the project will leave you better prepared for success in other aspects of your current and future career. Provide enough detail so that the faculty member assessing your implementation plan design and discussion will be able to provide substantive feedback that you will be able to incorporate into the final draft of your project.
At minimum, be sure to address the bullet points below, as they correspond to the grading criteria. You may also want to read the scoring guide and the Guiding Questions: Evaluation Plan Design document (linked in the Resources) to better understand how each criterion will be assessed. In addition to the bullet points below, provide a brief introduction that refreshes the reader’s memory about your problem statement, your planned intervention, and how you intended to implement your intervention (this should only be a single paragraph).
Reminder: these instructions are an outline. Your heading for this this section should be Evaluation of Plan and not Part 1: Evaluation of Plan.
Part 1: Evaluation of Plan- Define the outcomes that are the goal of an intervention plan.
- Create an evaluation plan to determine the impact of an intervention for a health promotion, quality improvement, prevention, education, or management need.
- Part 2: Discussion
Advocacy - Analyze the nurse’s role in leading change and driving improvements in the quality and experience of care.
- Explain how the intervention plan affects nursing and interprofessional collaboration, and how the health care field gains from the plan.
- Future Steps
- Explain how the current project could be improved upon to create a bigger impact in the target population as well as to take advantage of emerging technology and care models to improve outcomes and safety.
- Reflection on Leading Change and Improvement
- Reflect on how the project has impacted your ability to lead change in personal practice and future leadership positions.
- Reflect on the ways in which the completed intervention, implementation, and evaluation plans can be transferred into your personal practice to drive quality improvement in other contexts.
- Address Generally Throughout
- Integrate resources from diverse sources that illustrate support for all aspects of an evaluation plan for an intervention, as well as for professional discussion about the plan.
- Communicate evaluation plan and discussion of the project in a professional way that helps the audience to understand how the outcomes will be evaluated, as well as what was learned through the project process.
Additional Requirements
- Length of submission: 4–6 pages, double spaced.
- Number of resources: Minimum of 3–6 resources. (You may use resources previously cited in your literature review to contribute to this number. Your final project will require 12–18 unique resources.)
- Written communication: Written communication is free of errors that detract from the overall message.
- APA formatting: Resources and citations are formatted according to current APA style. Header formatting follows current APA levels.
- Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.

In healthcare settings, implementing and sustaining EBPs contains complex linkages among the EBP topics for instance reduction of medical errors, organizational social system that includes operational structures as well as external healthcare environment and individual clinicians (Rousseau & Gunia, 2016). Therefore, it is important to consider EBP in healthcare both nationally and internationally. This is to help them make sound decisions on matters concerning healthcare.
The steps involved for successful implementation of EBP entails finding out the resources available as well as doing a clinical inquiry if the system to implement a new Evidence Based Practice project. Understanding the healthcare systems helps to point out the needs that will benefit the patients and the healthcare system support. According to Warren, McLaughlin, Bardsley, Eich, Esche, Kropkowski and Risch (2016), argued that EBP is capable of addressing problems identified in the local healthcare system since it will make use of the clinical expertise and also it will take into account the patients inclinations and morals. The main considerations are that the local health care systems lack librarians to assist RNs with research for evidence practice. Educating nurses enables them to understand and successfully embrace this research into practice is another consideration. My mentor at my local nursing school has been very supportive of my project from assembling down the resources I need to helping me know the nursing practices that will facilitate the implementation of the project.

In order to successfully plan for a change in a health care system it is imperative to understand it’s environment, and properly assess the needs and challenges that the health care system has in implementing change. When evidence based practices are implemented in health care it means that the change has been proven to be effective through research evidence. The practice may improve the quality of nursing care but also can lead to developing nurses’ individual and professional performance. In an acute care hospital there are many variables to consider such as needs specific to uninsured individuals, funding resources, educating staff, gaining approval from administration, etc. According to a study completed by Mahmoud & Abdelrason (2019), understanding the limitations of the organization that the change is going to be implemented in is vital to its success. After reviewing specific aspects of the hospital environment with my preceptor, we looked specifically at how the change will affect the patients and the nursing staff. One of the biggest challenges will be gaining staff buy-in and then educating and training them to the new process of initiating a discharge checklist on admission. We will need to be innovative in our approach in order to convince the organization that they should invest time and money in this change (Black et al., 2015). With any change comes push back, especially when the perception is that it is just more work for the nurses to do. But hopefully with time and positive results, the nursing staff will see this implementation as a necessity in preventing of 30 day readmission.

Topic: Linked Application
A middle-range theory has fewer concepts and propositions than a grand theory which align with nursing practice and guide research. Conceptual models guide the direction of the propositions and empirically testable hypotheses used to create or refine middle-range theories. The progression from conceptual model to middle-range theory can be identified by reviewing King’s theory of goal attainment (middle-range theory) which is derived from King’s conceptual system (conceptual model).
Choose a conceptual model and middle-range theory. Explain how the concepts of the conceptual model and middle-range theory are consistent and are linked.
