Benchmark-Electronic Health record Implementation

 

This benchmark assignment assesses the following programmatic competencies:

2.3:        Develop leadership skills to collaborate on interprofessional teams in the provision of evidence-based, patient-centered care.

5.2:     Apply professional, ethical, and regulatory standards of practice in the provision of safe, effective health care.

One way informatics can be especially valuable is in capturing data to inspire improvements and quality change in practice. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) collects data related to adverse events and safety concerns. If you are working within a practice setting to implement a new electronic health record (EHR) system, this is just one of the many considerations your team would need to plan for during the rollout process.

In a paper of 1,250-1,500 words, address the following questions related to the advanced registered nurse’s role during this type of scenario: What key information would be needed in the database that would allow you to track opportunities for care improvement? What role does informatics play in the ability to capture this data? Which systems and staff members would need to be involved in the design and implementation process and team? What professional, ethical, and regulatory standards must be incorporated into the design and implementation of the system? How would the EHR team ensure that all order sets are part of the new record? How would you communicate the changes, including any kind of transition plan? What measures and steps would you take to evaluate the success of the EHR implementation from a staff, setting, and patient perspective? What leadership skills and theories would facilitate collaboration with the interprofessional team and provide evidence-based, patient-centered care?

You are required to cite five to 10 sources to complete this assignment. Sources must be published within the last 5 years and appropriate for the assignment criteria and nursing content.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

Assignment 2: Practicum – Journal Entry

Reflect on a patient who presented with a behavioral or mental health issue during your Practicum experience. Describe your experience in assessing and managing the patient and his or her family. Include details of your “aha” moment in identifying the patient’s behavioral or mental health issue. Then, explain how the experience connected your classroom studies to the real-world clinical setting. If you did not have an opportunity to evaluate a patient with this background during the last 4 weeks, you may select a related case study from a reputable source or reflect on previous clinical experiences.

Annotated Bibliography this assignment is to be approximately 3-4 pages in length including the title page, no reference page is needed as students are to use the article name and authors as a heading before summarizing both articles.

Assignment 2: The Pathophysiology of Disorders

During the last 5 weeks, you have explored various body systems: neurological, cardiovascular, respiratory, and hematological. These four systems work together along with other body systems to complete a myriad of functions. For this reason, when disorders occur within one body system, it can create potentially devastating effects throughout the entire body. For instance, Parkinson’s disease is a disorder of the central nervous system, yet its alterations actually affect multiple body systems from the cardiovascular system to the gastrointestinal system. In this Assignment, you examine alterations associated with disorders, as well as the impact of the alterations on multiple body systems.

To PrepareFrom the list below, select a disorder of interest to you:Alzheimer’s diseaseAsthma in childrenChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)Congestive heart failureHepatic disease (liver disease)HypertensionHyperthyroidism and hypothyroidismSeizuresSepsisIdentify alterations associated with your selected disorder. Consider the pathophysiology of the alterations. Think about how these alterations produce pathophysiological changes in at least two body systems.Reflect on how patient factors such as genetics, gender, ethnicity, age, and behavior might impact the pathophysiology of the alterations you identified, as well as the diagnosis and treatment of your selected disorder. Review the “Mind maps—Dementia, Endocarditis, and Gastro-oesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)” media in the Week 2 Learning Resources. Use the examples in the media as a guide to construct a mind map for the disorder you selected. Consider the epidemiology and clinical presentation of your selected disorder.

To Complete

Develop a 5- to 10-slide PowerPoint presentation that addresses the following:Describe your selected disorder, as well as associated alterations. Explain the pathophysiology of the alterations, including changes that occur in at least two body systems.Explain how genetics, gender, ethnicity, age, and behavior might impact the pathophysiology of the alterations you identified, as well as diagnosis and treatment of your selected disorder.Construct a mind map for the disorder you selected. Include the epidemiology, pathophysiology of alterations, risk factors, and clinical presentation, as well as the diagnosis and treatment of the disorder.

Module 6 DQ 1 and DQ 2

Tutor MUST have a good command of the English language

Each post should average 150-250 words Please remember that      sources like the CDC or WHO are great places to get information from, but they are not considered scholarly sources. Scholarly sources are peer-reviewed and written by experts in the field. You can certainly  continue to use them as references Please avoid very lengthy paragraphs because it causes      several ideas to be clumped together as one and that is not very clear to      understand. Instead, your paragraphs      should be about 5-7 sentences long with transition statements to guide the      reader into the next though.  Unless otherwise      specified, when asked to give examples it is best to give 2 or 3 strong examples with strong      supporting evidence backed by your literature review, as opposed to 6 or 7      examples loosely stated. Citation – Remember      to cite content that is not your      original idea, and that is      not common knowledge. If you state that       “The use of healthcare continues to rise because of technology,       access to care and population increase” — this needs to be cited. We as healthcare professionals       may understand this, but others may       not necessarily know this information. They need to know this was       obtained from a source and not just your thought. If you make       inferences or draw conclusions you may state – “some factors that       must be considered include       technology, increased population and technological advances” – this       is not a definitive statement. This       shows that you have considered several factors involved and you can then       use your references to further elaborate on each factor. 

Each post should include appropriate foundation knowledge, be factual, and enhance the ongoing dialogue. Each post should demonstrate either the application and/or reflection of knowledge. Your responses should expand on a classmate’s comments or advance the dialogue through follow-up questions Your responses should be open-ended to encourage continuing the conversation. Very few grammatical/spelling errors

As the country focuses on the restructuring of the U.S. health care delivery system, nurses will continue to play an important role. It is expected that more and more nursing jobs will become available out in the community, and fewer will be available in acute care hospitals.

Write an informal presentation (500-700 words) to educate nurses about how the practice of nursing is expected to grow and change. Include the concepts of continuity or continuum of care, accountable care organizations (ACO), medical homes, and nurse-managed health clinics.

Share your presentation with nurse colleagues on your unit or department and ask them to offer their impressions of the anticipated changes to health care delivery and the new role of nurses in hospital settings, communities, clinics, and medical homes.

In 800-1,000 words summarize the feedback shared by three nurse colleagues and discuss whether their impressions are consistent with what you have researched about health reform.

A minimum of three scholarly references are required for this assignment.

While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
