Regulation for Nursing Practice Staff Development Meeting

  

Nursing is a very highly regulated profession. There are over 100 boards of nursing and national nursing associations throughout the United States and its territories. Their existence helps regulate, inform, and promote the nursing profession. With such numbers, it can be difficult to distinguish between BONs and nursing associations, and overwhelming to consider various benefits and options offered by each.

Both boards of nursing and national nursing associations have significant impacts on the nurse practitioner profession and scope of practice. Understanding these differences helps lend credence to your expertise as a professional. In this Assignment, you will practice the application of such expertise by communicating a comparison of boards of nursing and professional nurse associations. You will also share an analysis of your state board of nursing.

To Prepare:

Assume that you are leading a staff development meeting on regulation for nursing practice at your healthcare organization or agency.

Review the NCSBN and ANA websites to prepare for your presentation.

The Assignment: (8- to 9-slide PowerPoint presentation)

Develop a 8- to 9-slide PowerPoint Presentation that addresses the following:

Describe the differences between a board of nursing and a professional nurse association.

Describe the board for your specific region/area.(Atlanta, GA-GA board of Nursing)

Who is on the board?

How does one become a member of the board?

Describe at least one state regulation related to general nurse scope of practice.

How does this regulation influence the nurse’s role?

How does this regulation influence delivery, cost, and access to healthcare?

Describe at least one state regulation related to Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs).

How does this regulation influence the nurse’s role?

How does this regulation influence delivery, cost, and access to healthcare?

Include Speaker Notes on Each Slide (except on the title page and reference page)

6612: Assessment 3

Assessment 3

  • PRINT
  • Patient Discharge Care Planning
    • prepare a written analysis of key issues, 6–7 pages in length, applicable to the development of an effective patient discharge care plan.
      The Institute of Medicine’s 2000 report To Err Is Human:Building a Safer Health Systemidentified health information technology (HIT) as one avenue to explore to reduce avoidable medical errors. As a result of the IOM report and suggestions for patient advocacy groups, health care organizations are encouraged to act by utilizing HIT to improve patient quality and safety.
      SHOW LESSHealth care organizations determine outcomes by how patient information is collected, analyzed, and presented, and nurse leaders are taking the lead in using HIT to bridge the gaps in care coordination. This assessment provides an opportunity for you to analyze the effects of HIT support, data reporting, and EHR data collection on effective care planning.
      By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
    • Competency 1: Apply care coordination models to improve the patient experience, promote population health, and reduce costs. 
      • Explain how HIT can be used to provide a longitudinal, patient-centered care plan across the continuum of care.
    • Competency 2: Explain the relationship between care coordination and evidence-based data. 
      • Describe ways in which data reporting specific to client behaviors can shape care coordination, care management, clinical efficiency, and interprofessional idea development.
    • Competency 3: Use health information technology to guide care coordination and organizational practice. 
      • Explain how information collected from client records can be used to positively influence health outcomes.
    • Competency 4: Communicate effectively with diverse audiences, in an appropriate form and style, consistent with applicable organizational, professional, and scholarly standards. 
      • Write clearly and concisely, using correct grammar and mechanics.
      • Support main points, claims, and conclusions with relevant and credible evidence, correctly formatting citations and references using APA style.

    Marta Rodriguez, a student, recently moved from New Mexico to Nevada to live with her aunt and uncle and was enrolled as a freshman in college. While attending her first semester, Marta was involved in a hit-and-run car accident. She was transported to the nearest shock trauma center where she spent the next four weeks undergoing multiple surgeries and antibiotic treatment for a systemic infection. Spanish is Marta’s first language and English is her second. Marta has a student health insurance plan.
    You are the senior care coordinator overseeing Marta’s care. You will be presenting her case to the interdisciplinary team members who are caring for Marta at an upcoming meeting to consider key aspects of a successful and safe discharge care plan for her. You are expected to lead the discussion, focusing on the role of informatics in effective discharge care planning, and have decided to prepare an analysis of key issues for team members to consider, which you will distribute to the attendees for review prior to the meeting.
    Note:Remember that you can submit all or a portion of your draft to Smarthinking for feedback before you submit the final version of this assessment. If you plan on using this free service, be mindful of the turnaround time of 24–48 hours for receiving feedback.
    Requirements
    Analyze key issues for consideration at the discharge planning meeting. Determine the effects of HIT support, data reporting, and EHR data collection on effective care planning.
    Use the following template for your written analysis:

    • APA Style Paper Template [DOCX].
    • Analyzing Key Issues
      The requirements outlined below correspond to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. Be sure that your analysis addresses each point, at a minimum. You may also want to read the Patient Discharge Care Planning Scoring Guide to better understand how each criterion will be assessed.
    • Explain how the interprofessional team will use HIT to provide a longitudinal, patient-centered care plan across the continuum of care that supports Marta in the discharge planning process.
      • What HIT elements will the team members use and why?
      • How can the interprofessional team members utilize the HIT elements to prevent a readmission of this patient 48 hours after being discharged?
      • How will the use of these elements support the coordination of care for this patient?
    • Describe at least three ways in which data reporting specific to client behaviors can shape care coordination, care management, clinical efficiency, and interprofessional innovation in care.
      • How would you evaluate the quality of the data?
