Connection between EBP and the Quadruple Aim

Here you begin by writing a brief introduction (about 5 statements). End this paragraph with a purpose statement. For example, the aim of this paper is to address how evidence-based practice (EBP) helps to reach the Quadruple Aim in each of the four areas ….. Afterwards, begin to address each of the four areas of the Quadruple Aim as shown below. Note, each heading is a Level 2 heading which works well with the set-up of the paper and the paper is double spaced, font is Times New Roman size 12, and paragraphs are indented; thus, APA is being followed.

Patient Experience

Remember, the rubric clearly states that in each area of the analysis you must accurately address in detail how EBP either supports or does not support the Quadruple Aim. I do not expect to have lots of quoted material in a paper so please paraphrase in your own words and cite using both in-text or parenthetical citations. To learn more about citations, and how/when to cite, check out the APA resources within the Writing Center and/or your APA manual. Remember, both grammar and APA are categories evaluated in the rubric. Encourage all to utilize Grammarly (a tool that helps to identify grammatical errors), prior to submitting any course work. Grammarly is free and can be found within the Writing Center.

Population Health

Do not forget, you must provide at least two outside resources and two or three course-specific resources that fully support this entire paper. Feel free to share information learned from watching our course video, reading our course resources, as well as locating other resources within the Walden library and various databases. Be sure all resources you locate are credible!

Reducing Costs

Be sure to list all resources utilized in content of paper on the last page which must be titled with the heading References. Note, the heading is not bolded which is an APA rule.

Work Life of Healthcare Providers

This will certainly be an interesting topic to present an analysis as we fall into this category as providers of healthcare. After you are done with this section, you will begin to write your conclusion paragraph that follows.

Conclusion

Here is what the Writing Center has to say about a Conclusion: A conclusion is an important part of the paper; it provides closure for the reader while reminding the reader of the contents and importance of the paper. It accomplishes this by stepping back from the specifics in order to view the bigger picture of the document. In other words, it is reminding the reader of the main argument. For most course papers, it is usually one paragraph that simply and succinctly restates the main ideas and arguments, pulling everything together to help clarify the thesis of the paper. A conclusion does not introduce new ideas; instead, it should clarify the intent and importance of the paper. It can also suggest possible future research on the topic. Be sure to check out an easy checklist for writing a conclusion on the website shared below https://academicguides.waldenu.edu/writingcenter/writingprocess/conclusions. Then, proceed to inset a “page break” and make your Reference list.

References

Be sure to format all references in proper APA 7th ed., --- check out Writing Center to view APA

Resources (Common Reference List examples is a great one to view). Additionally,

wonderful tutorials on APA are shared in the Writing Center. Lastly, remember that

references are on a standalone page just like this example --- put in a “page break” to have it remain as a standalone page.
