Describe each theory, including some history about the person who developed the theory and the major ideas and applications of the theory. Describe the ways in which the two theories are similar, and how they differ. Include a statement of how each theory could be used in your nursing practice. Include specific patient examples if you have them. You may also critique the theory: Is there anything with which you disagree or are there any problems you can identify? It is expected that this essay will be 2-3 pages in length (not including the title page), double-spaced. Your paper should include an introduction and conclusion and proper APA citations from any source material you use, including your text.

DNP- Patient Outcomes and Sustainable Change

TOPIC: Quality and Sustainability Paper Part One – Quality and Safety

NOTE: THIS IS THE 1ST PART OF A 3 PART ASSIGNMENT

The Quality and Sustainability Paper is a practice immersion assignment designed to be completed in three sections. This is part one of the assignment. Learners are required to analyze and apply quality and/or safety measures specific to contemporary nursing science.

General Guidelines:

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment: Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments. This assignment requires that you support your position by referencing at least six to eight scholarly resources. At least three of your supporting references must be from scholarly sources other than the assigned readings. 

Directions:

Write a paper (1,250-1,500 words) discussing the role of quality and/or safety in nursing science. Include the following: Define quality and/or safety measures and describe their relationship and role in nursing science today. Provide a contemporary example of how quality or safety measures are applied in nursing science. Identify the quality and/or components needed to analyze a health care program’s outcomes.

In addition to being fiscally sound, cost neutral, or revenue producing, a new program/major change must fit with the organization’s philosophy, vision, mission, and strategic plan. Describe with specific examples how your project fits in with your institution’s philosophy, vision, mission, and strategic plan.

Drawing upon your knowledge of various change theories and in particular Rogers’ Diffusion of Innovations (theory for sustainable change), how will you go about engaging stakeholders to adopt your proposal for change?

Quality Indicators

  

Quality Indicators

 How do you define quality as it pertains to health care and the practice of nursing? Some nurses may define quality as effective interdisciplinary teamwork that results in better patient-health outcomes, while hospital administrators may define quality as appropriately delegated responsibilities, completion of tasks, and effective patient flow. Due to the subjective nature of the term, quality is a topic of great debate.
 

In an effort to define quality in health care, standards have been developed to establish consistency and provide guidance. The National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators (NDNQI) outlines nursing-sensitive indicators that encompass measurement scales for quality of nurse professionals as well as quality of the services provided by nurses to patients. In this week’s Discussion, you evaluate the determinants of quality.m based on the NDNQI indicators and the theoretical underpinnings of these quality indicators. You apply nursing-sensitive indicators to your current setting and assess how each definition of quality contributes to the idea of quality overall.
 

To prepare:

Review      the NDNQI indicators presented in the Learning Resources that emphasize      quality. Focus on those indicators that pertain to your practice setting (Hospital). Consider      the influence of early quality improvement theories and philosophies on      the development of those quality indicators. Using      the Walden Library, locate at least two scholarly research articles that      discuss how quality indicators influence your practice setting. Select      one definition of quality published by any peer-reviewed source that      particularly resonates with your thinking about quality.

By tomorrow 12-06-2017 by 2 pm, write a minimum of 550 words essay in APA format with at least 3 references from the list of required readings below. Include the level one headings as numbered below:

post a cohesive scholarly response that addresses the following:

1) Identify two nurse-sensitive indicators of quality that relate to patient care and analyze the influence of early quality improvement theories and philosophies on the development of those indicators.  For this exercise, do not choose nurse sensitive indicators that relate to staffing levels. 

2) Find and cite at least 2 nursing research articles you located and evaluate how these indicators influence a practice setting (See attached PDF for the 2 Articles).

The authors of this article attempt to reduce medication errors, patient falls, and ulcers by using Transforming Care at the Bedside, which is a framework that values safety and reliability, creates a good work environment, is centered on the patient, and increases value. They conclude that these principles are able to positively affect their patients, but some aspects of the study may be inconclusive.

After briefly discussing the background of organizational culture, the study in this article focuses on how organizational culture affects quality of care in long-term care. It uses two independent measurements and determines that different styles of organizational culture affect the quality of care.
