The US Census Bureau released a recent report that household income increased by 5.2 percent between 2014-2015 and the poverty rate decreased by 1.2 percentage points. There remain geographic distribution differences as well as health insurance coverage increases. The poverty decreased in the south, west and midwest with no significant change in the northeast. The Current Population Survey has the percentage of people with health insurance coverage for all or part of 2015 as 90.9 percent, higher than the rate in 2014 (89.6 percent). (Reference Proctor, Semega, and Kollar (2016). What are your thoughts on how this impacted families and insurance coverage?

New Models for Evidence-Based Practice
A professional goal for DNP-prepared nurses is to produce new evidence-based models of care and develop evidence-based guidelines. As you continue to develop and engage in your EBP Project, keep this aim in mind. What could help to facilitate the acceptance of new practices?
As noted in earlier weeks, every specialty area should base practice on research and evidence. For example, in informatics, an informatician who plans to implement a new health information system would be wise to follow a model that research shows has been effective. Similarly, those involved in leadership or management can review change models and theories, exploring current evidence on best practices that produce positive results. For this Discussion, you evaluate evidence-based practice models, change theories, and frameworks that assist with the adoption of new evidence-based practice approaches.
To prepare: Reflect on your hospital setting and the use of evidence-based practice models. How are these models used? If they are not used, how might the integration of an evidence-based practice model change practice? Review the Rosswurm and Larrabee article presented in the Learning Resources focusing on the model they present for integrating new evidence-based practices (See attached file). Research and locate an evidence-based practice model from nursing or another discipline that could be used in your specialty area to lead a systematic change to evidence-based practice approaches. You may also use a model or framework discussed in your course text, Translation of Evidence into Nursing and Health Care Practice. Consider how using a model for evidence-based practice can facilitate adoption of new approaches to practice.
By tomorrow Tuesday 9/25/18 10 pm, write an essay of a minimum of 550 words in APA format, and at least 3 scholarly references from the list of required readings below. Include all level one headings as numbered below:
Post a cohesive response that addresses the following:
1) Discuss the use of evidence-based models in your hospital setting.
2) Describe a model for evidence-based practice or change theories and frameworks that you could utilize to facilitate the adoption of new approaches to practice. Substantiate your selection with evidence from the literature.

Write a 700-word paper that evaluates any recommendations you received, and those you did not.
Consider the following: Who did you reach out to and what is their relation to you? Who responded and what did they have to say? Was there anything in the recommendation you felt was missing? Who did not respond?Is there a reason why they might not have responded? What did this assignment teach you about your professional relationships with current or previous employers or supervisors? What can you do to strengthen weak professional relationships?
Risk Management
How often have you heard someone say, “Wow! I didn’t see that coming!”? Project failure is frequently attributed to unforeseen circumstances (risks) that emerge during the different phases of a project. Though project managers may be unable to fully anticipate all risks, they can make provisions for addressing potential risks that may arise in later phases of a project. It is essential to continually weigh and mitigate risks. But what about cases in which risk is deliberately increased to reach a desired outcome?
In this Discussion, you consider a scenario in which these questions arise. Based on the scenario, you generate strategies for mitigating potential project risks.
To prepare , consider the following scenario:
You are on the project team for an IT project that must be completed on time to coincide with the opening of a new hospital wing that will rely in part on this technology. You learn that the project manager has been ordering shortcuts on testing to meet the deadline. You can see that these actions keep the project on schedule and the product seems to work well, but you are concerned about the additional risk caused by the shortcuts. Do you intervene?
Post by tomorrow 9/27/16 a minimum of 550 words essay in APA format with 3 references, addressing the level one headings as numbered below:
1) A description of how you would respond to the situation described in the scenario.
2) Identify potential risks to the project if you do or do not take action.
3)Explain strategies you might use to mitigate the risks you identified. Is it ever beneficial to accept or increase risks in order to meet project goals? Justify your response.
