Assignment #3: Quality Improvement Proposal Paper Part 1 (Due Week 7 - 2/26/2017; 25% of final grade)
This is the first of a two-part assignment. The second part of this assignment will be developed in NURS 495. For Part 1, based on the PICOT question you developed and the evidence you obtained in the literature, you will present a literature review based on the findings that address possible interventions for your identified clinical question. For Part 2, (which will be completed in NURS 495), you will continue to develop your Quality Improvement (QI) Plan. In the second part of the paper, you will utilize the research that you conducted in this class to develop an implementation and evaluation plan for your identified patient care need. This will include identifying a timeline, stakeholders, responsibilities for implementation and feedback, identifying needed resources, outlining budgetary needs and developing an evaluation plan. Further information will be given in NURS 495 on developing your plan, however it would be helpful to keep the requirements for the second part of the paper in mind when choosing your topic to research. In NURS 495, you will also be conducting an interview of a nurse manager. After you have completed your QI plan, you will be presenting you plan to the nurse manager you interviewed for feedback. Please be sure to keep a copy of your paper with your instructor’s comments after the end of the semester. You will be continuing this project in NURS 495. Part 1 should be between 7-10 pages (not including cover page and references). It will be graded with the following rubric: | |
