Identify a breakdown or imminent breakdown in clinical practice-

Review the class resources for examples that may apply to current practice and describe a high risk situation or risk for error in a case study format.
Identify the type, frequency and repetition of the problem as you can best determine from the literature.
You can use the same topic as your formal paper if that works for you – no need to recreate the wheel

Complete a Failure Mode Effect Analysis-

Use the IHI template
video in assignment to view
Only pick 3-5 processes/sub-processes on the tool
there could be endless processes/sub-processes – only pick 3-5
best educated guess on Likelihood of occurrence, likelihood of detection and severity
calculate RPN – focus on Failure modes with higher RPNs
Highlight highest RPN in PowerPoint – list interventions

1. Develop a power point presentation why are you focusing on this?Why is this relevant?cite sources to explain why it is relevant.
In the assignment – there is a Sample PowerPoint, Sample IHIand also a video to help with the IHI tool.

Explore how nursing knowledge and evidence-based practice is influenced by history, theory, and research.

Evidence-based practice has become the known foundation for clinical practice decision making within the nursing profession. However, various ways of knowing such as history, theory, and research are all important within the nursing practice discipline.

In your initial post by responding to the following:

1 Describe the value of evidence-based nursing practice.
2 Explore how nursing knowledge and evidence-based practice is influenced by history, theory, and research.
3 Describe barriers to implementing evidence-based practice.

Describe how you would apply each stage of the model or theoretical framework in your proposed implementation.

Benchmark – Evidence-Based Practice Proposal Project: Framework or Model for Change

Take a moment to review the details of this assignment below and gather any necessary files. Once you’re ready to submit your assignment, move on to Step 2.
Assessment Description
Applying a model or framework for change ensures that a process is in place to guide the efforts for change. In 500-750 words, discuss the model or framework you will use to implement your evidence-based practice proposal project. You will use the model or framework you select in the Topic 8 assignment, during which you will synthesize the various aspects of your project into a final paper detailing your evidence-based practice project proposal.

Include the following:
1. Identify the selected model or framework for change and discuss its relevance to your project.
2. Discuss each of the stages in the change model/framework.
3. Describe how you would apply each stage of the model or theoretical framework in your proposed implementation.
4. Create a concept map for the conceptual model or framework you selected to illustrate how it will be applied to your project. Attach this as an appendix at the end of your paper.
Complete the “APA Writing Checklist” to ensure that your paper adheres to APA style and formatting criteria and general guidelines for academic writing. Include the completed checklist as an appendix at the end of your paper.

Justify why this is a problem and its significance.Design the project: method, strategies to implement the project and plan for evaluation.

Students need to use the knowledge gained throughout this whole unit to develop a plan for decision making and problem-solving in relation to one selected health care issue/ nursing practice eg. infection control.

• Choose one specific issue or problem in the health care setting that indicates a student’s learning needs.
• Write learning objectives using SMART goals.
• Conduct a literature review of the chosen area. The student will be reviewing at least six articles.

Critically analyse the literature to explore dignity in the hospital setting from a service users perspective.

Dignity in a hospital setting from a service users perspective

This is a narrative literature review based on a nursing topic. the title of this narrative literature review is:
Dignity in a hospital setting from a service users perspective.
The aim of this literature review is to critically analyse the literature to explore dignity in the hospital setting from a service users perspective.
When you then search the literature, critique and read it, themes should emerge from your reading. It is these themes that you use to write your review. There should be 3 themes.

Identify and use appropriate opportunities and effective communication skills to explore the importance of healthy lifestyle choices in relation to the mental and physical health and well-being of the persons receiving care, e.g. motivational interview techniques.

1. Provide safe, person-centred, evidence-based care in an increasingly confident manner, within an appropriate timeframe in partnership with the person receiving care/family and the multidisciplinary team.

2. Identify and use appropriate opportunities and effective communication skills to explore the importance of healthy lifestyle choices in relation to the mental and physical health and well-being of the persons receiving care, e.g. motivational interview techniques.

3. Demonstrate that they can undertake a ‘whole person assessment’ and effectively contribute to the decision making process and provision of safe, person-centred, evidence-based care.

4. Demonstrate that they can co-ordinate the nursing care of a small group of people/person with complex care needs, demonstrating understanding of risk assessment and management and can access appropriate support and resources as required using distraction and diversion strategies.

5. Demonstrate their potential to work more independently, making the most of opportunities to extend knowledge, skills and practice.
