From the perspective of a Nurse Administrator, design the final Comprehensive Action Plan for the clinical issue inclusive of:
Introduction
Describe the clinical issue chosen as the focus for your course project.
Describe the proposed change for the issue.
Delineate the anticipated benefits to the nursing profession and clinical practice setting.
Goals and strategies to address the clinical practice issue from the perspective of a Nurse Administrator. (Include any updated strategies from the plan you developed in NUR5043.)
Theoretical Framework
SWOT Analysis, Practice Issue, and Evidence Summary from Graduate Milestone 1
The nurse’s role and responsibility for practice change as a Nurse Administrator
Procedures (what steps are to be taken to complete this change process from start to finish?)
Resources required:
Costs
Participants
Physical Space
Tools that will be used to evaluate outcomes (pre- and post-assessment tools, learner evaluation forms)
Anticipated barriers and strategies to overcome them
Methods to include:
Timelines with details of steps for implementation
Evaluation of participant achievement of objectives
Identification of contribution to Nurse Administration, leadership, and management
I am going to attach part 1 that you did. Also instructions feedback as well.
All cause 30-day hospital readmissions is a metric with which all organizations are concerned due to penalties in payment. It is also complicated by patients with varying socioeconomic status, social determinants of health and vulnerabilities. It is an important topic impacting our communities and nation.
Your stated PICOT:
For adult patients recently discharged from acute care settings at Kaiser Hospital (P), does implementing a comprehensive hospital readmission reduction program (I) compared to standard discharge procedures (C) reduce
hospital readmissions (O) within 30 days (T)?
Recommended modification:
In adult patients discharged within 30-days from the acute care setting, does implementation of a comprehensive patient and caregiver education series, “Successfully Managing Your Chronic Condition”, compared to current processes, reduce 30-day all cause hospital readmissions within eight weeks?
You state:
The project will include:
Developing and distributing educational materials to patients and caregivers.
Offering training sessions for caregivers.
Implementing a telehealth monitoring system to track patients’ health status.
Establishing a care coordination team to oversee patient transitions from hospital to
home
This list includes four huge items.
Each one could be an MSN capstone project. You cannot tackle all four successfully in this term. Select just the training sessions (which is what I suggested in the revised PICOT).
The hospital, and even your preceptor may want all of these components of a comprehensive program, but that is not realistic if you want to successfully complete this term.
You MUST implement an EBP initiative in this term, and you MUST collect, and analyze outcome data for Milestone 3.
Again, an extremely important topic but you need a much more narrowed focus to be successful in this term.
You can include the SWOT chart but be sure to include a few sentences explaining how it impacts your project implementation
You already have the Star Model. You don’t need another model. Also, you MUST cite your sources if you present the Health Belief Model.
You need a defined discharge date–discharged from acute care within the past 30-days
