advocacy and cultural competence

Go to the link https://www.thinkculturalhealth.hhs.gov/clas/standards  (Links to an external site.)

View the National Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services Standards (CLAS) categories aimed at equity and quality care (HHS, n.d.). Notice how these standards overlap with many of the expectations and standards in professional nursing practice!

This weeks discussion topic asks you to identify overlaps in the standards with the expectations and standards in professional nursing practice.

Your discussion posting must provide a response to the following questions: 

  • In what ways are you and your peers using these standards in your areas of nursing practice?
  • Discuss one nursing action you might incorporate to improve cultural competence in your organization.Remember to cite both the weekly readings (not systematic reviews) and an external source.

RECOGNITION

 

Explain how recognition of racism, power imbalances, entrenched majority culture biases, and the need for self-reflexivity can impact the treatment that a patient receives in a health care organization. Discuss whether specific programs to address these issues should be developed or if programs should attempt to treat all entities as if these differences did not exist. Provide a supporting reference for your response. PLEASE INCLUDE IN-TEXT CITATION AND REFERENCE

When determining the efficacy of the sepsis handoff communication tool, this can be evaluated in one of two ways. Both of these ways, however, both evaluate data in the same way. The first way would be to utilize a randomized controlled trial in patients with an admitting diagnosis or new diagnosis of sepsis. Half of the patients diagnosed with sepsis will receive the sepsis handoff communication tool, and the other half will not. This will allow those who will review the data, which includes myself, infection control and administration, to see in real time the difference, if any, in implementing a handoff tool. The second was to determine efficacy could be to implement the sepsis handoff tool to all patients with an admitting or new diagnosis of sepsis. The data collected can then be compared to the data in the past in which a tool was not used.

Data collected from either of these methods will allow those involved to compare current or previous data, depending on the method, to the new communication tool. This will help determine if the sepsis handoff tool creates a positive change in patient outcomes and also decreasing in-patient mortality, or if there is no change.

Strategic Plan for Nursing Intervention

 

Assess the culture of the organization for potential challenges in incorporating the nursing practice intervention. Use this assessment when creating the strategic plan.

Write a 150-250 word strategic plan defining how the nursing practice intervention will be implemented in the capstone project change proposal.

APA style is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
