NSG 498 Harvard University Improving Fall Prevention Strategies Discussion

I’m studying for my Health & Medical class and need an explanation.

PowerPoint Presentation – Signature Assignment

In this week’s assignment, you will work through the planning and implementation stages of the project. This will require you to determine goals, resources needed, and to select an evidence-based practice (EBP) model based on your proposed subject (which is attached as word documents)

1. Start with the solution that you determined would be most effective in resolving the stated problem of “Improving Fall Prevention Strategies in an Acute-Care Setting” and define the intended outcomes of implementing the change (i.e., what is your improvement goal?). In order for quality to improve, a change must occur. That change must be quantifiable, in other words, it must be measurable.
   Create an implementation plan in which you answer ALL the following questions
   • Explain how you will measure the change and how you will know when you have reached your improvement goal.
   • Create a list of outcomes required to reach your outcomes goal. This will allow you to determine the actions needed and the priority of tasks that will result in the desired outcome.
   • Determine who will be responsible for each outcome (typically each is assigned to a team member who is motivated in seeing the successful implementation of the plan).
   • Determine the actions needed to take place for each outcome to occur. Questions to consider when determining what action needs to take place:
   • Who do we need to talk to?
   • Departments
   • Stakeholders
   • What needs to be decided?
   • What resources are needed?
   • Budget
   • Personnel
   • Supplies and equipment
   • What milestones need to be set to know we’re on track?
   • When do we need to check on the progress of those milestones?
   • Overall timeframe for the project
   • What potential setbacks do we need to plan for?
   • Risk management plan
   • Do any tasks need to be done before taking this action?
   • Establish budget, roles, and responsibilities (who will be responsible for what).
   • Determine how you will monitor progress, which provides you the means of tracking actions as they are completed and will make you aware of actions that are late or off track.
   • Select an EBP model to guide the implementation of the plan.

Remember that without a measure, progress becomes a matter of opinion and opinions can easily change over the course of an implementation timeline.
Create an evaluation plan. Your evaluation plan will define the standard of measurement for progress and will include:

• Measurable outcomes (both short-term and long-term – formative assessments and summative assessments)
• Data to be collected and how and when it is to be collected
• Established evaluation points where data can be evaluated and adjustments made to the implementation plan as a result.

Format your assignment as a 15-slide presentation that includes a title slide and an APA formatted reference slide. Please be as descriptive and detailed as possible. Use slide for bullet points or introductory points, and place the bulk of information in the speaker notes. Every slide has a minimum of at least 50 words to explain each. The speaker notes should be as descriptive as you would be if presenting this power point in front of a group of researchers.

The attached files are related to the research problem so that it is easier for you to understand the assignment and so that this assignment will correlate with them uniformly. Be careful not to duplicate any information from the attached power-point presentations, as my instructor has a zero tolerance for any form of plagarism including self plagarism as well.

Also the paper needs to be correctly written without grammar errors. My professor rejects all the papers which contain grammar errors.
