POLICY/REGULATION FACT SHEET

POLICY/REGULATION FACT SHEET

As a professional nurse, you are expected to apply your expertise to patient care. On occasion, you will also be expected to share that expertise.

With evolving technology and continuous changes to regulations designed to keep up these changes, there is usually a need to share information and expertise to inform colleagues, leadership, patients, and other stakeholders.

In this Assignment, you will study a recent nursing informatics-related healthcare policy, and you will share the relevant details via a fact sheet designed to inform and educate.

To Prepare:

· Review the Resources on healthcare policy and regulatory/legislative topics related to health and nursing informatics.

· Consider the role of the nurse informaticist in relation to a healthcare organization’s compliance with various policies and regulations, such as the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA).

· Research and select one health or nursing informatics policy (within the past 5 years) or regulation for further study.

The Assignment: (1 page not including the title and reference page)

Create a 1-page fact sheet that your healthcare organization could hypothetically use to explain the health or nursing informatics policy/regulation you selected. Your fact sheet should address the following:

· Briefly and generally explain the policy or regulation you selected.

· Address the impact of the policy or regulation you selected on system implementation.

· Address the impact of the policy or regulation you selected on clinical care, patient/provider interactions, and workflow.

· Highlight organizational policies and procedures that are/will be in place at your healthcare organization to address the policy or regulation you selected. Be specific.

· Use APA format and include a title page, in-text citations, and reference page.

· Use the Safe Assign Drafts to check your match percentage before submitting your work.

Students will create a brief written introduction  about their EBPP to post with their visual aid.  Examples of visual aids  may include but are not limited to: powerpoint, brochure, handout, etc. 

ASSESSING NEUROLOGICAL SYMPTOMS

 

A 40 year old female presents with complaint of a headache for one week. Reports a “head cold” 3 weeks ago.  Thought it was getting better, but sinus symptoms are back and even worse.

Describes the headache is located across her forehead; feels like pressure behind my eyes and unable to breathe out of nose. Also feels mucus running down the back of throat.  Pain sometimes severe (8/10) but with acetaminophen reduces to moderate (4/10) and occasionally mild (2/10).  Occasional nonproductive cough.  Feels feverish at times; noted frequent sneezing and no appetite. Bending over seems to make the headache worse.  “Acetaminophen improves my headache, but doesn’t take it away.” Taking Sudafed HCL 120 mg every 12 hours, with some relief. Symptoms are worse in the morning – awakes with a headache. Ranges from 2/10 at its best to 8/10. Difficulty with concentrating at job and feels very tired.

TOPIC PREVENTING HOMELESSNESS FOR VETERAN POPULATION

Introduction

Note: Each assessment in this course builds on the work you completed in the previous assessment. Therefore, you must complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented.

Even the best intervention plan will not be effective without a sound and reasonable approach to implementing it. The implementation of the same intervention plan can vary drastically between different care settings, based on the culture of the care setting, the resources available, and the stakeholders involved in the project, as well as the specific policies already in place. A successful implementation plan blends contemporary and emerging best practices and technology with an understanding of the on-the-ground realities of a specific care setting and the target population for an intervention. By synthesizing these various considerations it is possible to increase the likely success of the implementation and continued sustainability of an intervention plan.

Preparations

  • Read Guiding Questions: Implementation Plan Design [DOC]. This document is designed to give you questions to consider and additional guidance to help you successfully complete this assessment.
  • As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.
    • What are the needs of your stakeholders that are relevant to your target population and need?
    • What applicable health care policy and regulations are relevant to your target population and need?
    • How will these considerations impact the development of your Intervention Plan Design assessment?
    • How can you work these considerations into the development of your Implementation Plan Design assessment?

Instructions

Note: The assessments in this course are sequenced in such a way as to help you build specific skills that you will use throughout your program. Complete the assessments in the order in which they are presented.

Your implementation plan design will be the third section of your final project submission. The goal for this is to design a plan that will allow your intervention to be theoretically implemented in your target population and setting. You should be able to preserve the quality improvement outcomes that you designed for your target population and setting while also ensuring that the intervention does not put undue stress on the health care setting’s resources or violate any policies or regulations. Provide enough detail so that the faculty member assessing your implementation plan design will be able to provide substantive feedback that you will be able to incorporate into the final draft of your project.

At minimum, be sure to address the bullet points below, as they correspond to the grading criteria. You may also want to read the scoring guide and the Guiding Questions: Implementation Plan Design document (linked above) to better understand how each criterion will be assessed. In addition to the bullet points below, provide a brief introduction that refreshes the reader’s memory about your problem statement, as well as the setting and context for which this intervention plan was designed before launching into your implementation plan.

Reminder: these instructions are an outline. Your heading for this this section should be Management and Leadership and not Part 1: Management and Leadership.

Part 1: Management and Leadership
  • Propose strategies for leading, managing, and implementing professional nursing practices to ensure interprofessional collaboration during the implementation of an intervention plan.
  • Analyze the implications of change associated with proposed strategies for improving the quality and experience of care while controlling costs.
Part 2: Delivery and Technology
  • Propose appropriate delivery methods to implement an intervention which will improve the quality of the project.
  • Evaluate the current and emerging technological options related to the proposed delivery methods.
Part 3: Stakeholders, Policy, and Regulations
  • Analyze stakeholders, regulatory implications, and potential support that could impact the implementation of an intervention plan.
  • Propose existing or new policy considerations that would support the implementation of an intervention plan.
Part 4: Timeline
  • Propose a timeline to implement an intervention plan with reference to specific factors that influence the timing of implementation.
Address Generally Throughout
  • Integrate resources from diverse sources that illustrate support for all aspects of an implementation plan for a planned intervention.
  • Communicate implementation plan in a way that clearly illustrate the importance of interprofessional collaboration to create buy-in from the audience.
