WEEK 6: EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS

Critique the below evidence synthesis exemplar to address the following.

Patient falls with injury and fall prevention remain complex phenomena in the acute care setting as well as a major challenge for healthcare professionals (Gygax Spicer, 2017). Patient falls are considered one of the leading adverse events occurring in acute care settings such as hospitals and nursing homes, with the detrimental impact to the patient ranging from mild to severe bruising, fractures, trauma, and even death (de Medeiros Araújo et al., 2017). Falls are common phenomena in older adults, with roughly one out of three people age 65 years and older who suffers from at least one fall per year due to multiple factors including environmental, social, and physiological factors either alone or in conjunction (Gygax Spicer, 2017). The etiology is that patients are attempting to get out of bed without assistance from nursing staff. Several of the causative factors include illness, impulsiveness, urgency, medications, or being in an unfamiliar environment. Lastly, there has been an increase in the amount of turnover in staffing, thus reducing the amount of available nursing staff in the practice setting.

Does the author clearly identify the scope of the evidence synthesis? Explain your rationale.

• Are strong paraphrased sentences included that are supported by contemporary sources of research evidence? Explain your rationale.
• Are the facts related to the practice problem presented in an objective manner? Explain your rationale.
• Does the author use sources to support ideas and claims, and not the other way around? Explain your rationale.
• Based on your appraisal, is this exemplar a true synthesis of the evidence? Or is it a summary of the evidence? Explain your rationale.

Understanding the health care system at the local level is important to consider when planning an EBP implementation because it gives you an indication of what you can expect as far as demographics and availability of resources. According to my course preceptor, when any evidence-based implementation has taken place at her facility, such as the changed from paper charting to electronic medical records (EMR) has been a difficult endeavor that has required much planning and implementation. To promote use of research evidence in clinical and administrative health care decision making, multifaceted implementation strategies are needed (Moloney, Taylor & Ralph, 2016). Implementation strategies also need to address both the individual practitioner and organizational perspective. In addition to a shared vision, effective leadership is needed for change to be successful.

The key to transformational change or any change is to have leadership that is able to understand it, support it, explain it, and move the organization to commit to it (Cowell, Gillespie, Cheung & Brown, 2018). Although full schedules, distracting events, fear of change, and apathy are obstacles to change, the real enemy of change is complacency and having the will to change is vital even groups that seek change may be complacent and not committed to follow through.

Quite often, nurse leaders are faced with ethical dilemmas, such as those associated with choices between competing needs and limited resources. Resources are finite, and competition for those resources occurs daily in all organizations.

For example, the use of 12-hour shifts has been a strategy to retain nurses. However, evidence suggests that as nurses work more hours in a shift, they commit more errors. How do effective leaders find a balance between the needs of the organization and the needs of ensuring quality, effective, and safe patient care?

In this Discussion, you will reflect on a national healthcare issue and examine how competing needs may impact the development of polices to address that issue.

To Prepare:

• Review the Resources and think about the national healthcare issue/stressor you previously selected for study in Module 1.
• Reflect on the competing needs in healthcare delivery as they pertain to the national healthcare issue/stressor you previously examined.

By Day 3 of Week 3

Post an explanation of how competing needs, such as the needs of the workforce, resources, and patients, may impact the development of policy. Then, describe any specific competing needs that may impact the national healthcare issue/stressor you selected. What are the impacts, and how might policy address these competing needs? Be specific and provide examples.

Discuss the purpose of strategic planning in a health care environment. Explain what factors affect future planning in an organization and what tools can be used for future planning.

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.
