ZERO PLAGIARISM

As a professional nurse, you are expected to apply your expertise to patient care. On occasion, you will also be expected to share that expertise.

With evolving technology and continuous changes to regulations designed to keep up these changes, there is usually a need to share information and expertise to inform colleagues, leadership, patients, and other stakeholders.

In this Assignment, you will study a recent nursing informatics-related healthcare policy, and you will share the relevant details via a fact sheet designed to inform and educate.

To Prepare:

• Review the Resources on healthcare policy and regulatory/legislative topics related to health and nursing informatics.
• Consider the role of the nurse informaticist in relation to a healthcare organization’s compliance with various policies and regulations, such as the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA).
• Research and select one health or nursing informatics policy (within the past 5 years) or regulation for further study.

The Assignment: (1 page)

Create a 1-page fact sheet that your healthcare organization could hypothetically use to explain the health or nursing informatics policy/regulation you selected. Your fact sheet should address the following:

• Briefly and generally explain the policy or regulation you selected.
• Address the impact of the policy or regulation you selected on system implementation.
• Address the impact of the policy or regulation you selected on clinical care, patient/provider interactions, and workflow.
• Highlight organizational policies and procedures that are/will be in place at your healthcare organization to address the policy or regulation you selected. Be specific.

This is a Quality Improvement Project and NOT a Research

TOPIC: Impact of Medication Administration Errors on 3-4-Year-old Leukemia Patients 

This assignment is Based on a previously completed Research. It must be modified into a Quality Improvement Project

Please see the ATTACHED previously completed Sample, which must be Modified.

· This should be a Research that is already translated into Quality Improvement and Practice

· How to Prevent Error(s) found in Current Base Research

· How will Nurses deal with the Error(s) and How to Prevent future reoccurrence

· Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments.

Chapter 1 of the Direct Practice Improvement (DPI) Project is titled “Introduction to the Project” and includes background and other essential information regarding the overall DPI Project design and components.

General Requirements:

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:

·  Access the textbook “The Doctor of Nursing Practice Essentials: A New Model for Advanced Practice Nursing textbook. Chapter 10 of this textbook provides an excellent template for a DNP-focused scholarly project.

· You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite.

Directions:

Use the “DPI Proposal Template” to help you develop a draft of the Introduction (Chapter 1) of your DPI Project Proposal. Keep in mind this is an outline and formatting structure; it may be of use to you but recall that each project will vary in nature and scope, so adaptations to this format may be required. Sections in Chapter 1 include:

1. Chapter 1: Introduction to the Project

2. Background of the Project

3. Problem Statement

4. Purpose of the Project

5. Clinical Question(s)

6. Advancing Scientific Knowledge

7. Significance of the Project

8. Rationale for Methodology

9. Nature of the Project Design

10. Definition of Terms

11. Assumptions, Limitations, Delimitations

12. Summary and Organization of the Remainder of the Project

Much of this information can be gleaned from your DPI Prospectus and 10 Strategic Points, but you will find that new as well as expanded content in specific areas will be required, depending on the nature of your proposed DPI Project.

SCHOLARLY PAPER Guidelines 1. Go to the following web site: HHS Hospital Compare website: https://www.medicare.gov/hospitalcompare/search.html Find data for three (3) area hospitals (one can be the hospital where you work or 3 local hospitals), and national and your state (Florida or where you are located) data through the Hospital Compare site. You will need to explore this site to locate the comparison tables. You will need to click through several screens to get the required data. Select either the Survey of Patient’s Experiences OR the Timely and Effective Care tab to prepare your paper. Your paper will focus on only the information within ONE TAB (Patient Care Experiences OR Timely & Effective Care). See the Hospital Compare Help Sheet document in Canvas Your paper will address the following information:  NUR 3870 INFORMATICS FOR THE HEALTH PROFESSIONAL VPAA: Revised 9/11, 1/12, 2/16, 11/16 Page 23 a. The purposes of the data collection by the U.S. government. Include information on the impact these scores have on hospital operations, finances, quality, safety. b. Select one specific question (HCAHPS) or care issue from the collated results. Discuss results for your institution for the selected criteria from the nursing unit level perspective compared to the two (2) other local hospitals and state and national data. Include the data you found for this one question. Do not use all the hospitals in your system (LMHS/CHS-HMA/ Bayfront/ HCA). Did you identify a gap in practice that needs improvement and could improve the score? c. Develop a concrete plan to improve the score you selected for change. Remember the information you learned in the IHI courses. The specific steps in the plan you develop must include: • The proposed interventions and timeline for implementation of the interventions • How you will measure the effectiveness or success of your plan (metric) • Timeframe for measurement of results, be specific. Must be related to the metrics you would use to measure success of your plan • a brief description of any tools or projects to be used in the proposed plan and implementation • How you will “promote” the plan to your manager and co-workers to gain support for the project Your paper should reflect your synthesis of the literature you find with appropriate references to support your plan. This will involve investigating patient hospital experience literature and process improvement content and methods. NOTE: You joined the IHI (Institute for Healthcare Improvement) at no charge to access performance improvement tools. This is an excellent resource for your professional practice and in many courses in this and future programs. Starting the CE courses by week 2 will enable you to have the tools and content on process improvement for this paper. 2.
