  • Do not leave blanks in the cells. For example, if there is not a theoretical framework used in the study, state that there wasn’t one used.
  • If you use abbreviations, please provide the definition/explanation of what the abbreviation means.
  • For each article, you will respond to the guided questions, as delineated below:
    • Are the results of the study valid? Support your answer.
    • How were the participants chosen?  What was the sampling strategy?
    • How believable are the results?
    • What were the results and what are the implications of the results?
    • What was the research methodology used?
    • How was the data collected? Were the data collection procedures clear?
    • How will the results help in improving patient outcomes?
    • Can the findings be implemented in other health care institutions?

3. At the conclusion of the document, add a Reference page.  Include each of the references from the 5 articles. Use APA format.

Identify specific leadership models you support, and compare and contrast communication techniques for patient-centered care effectiveness. How does your academic work support evidence of meeting the following?

Essential VIII: Professionalism and Professional Values

Outcome #3: Promote the image of nursing by modeling the values and articulating the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of the nursing profession.
Review your past academic work, evaluate your effectiveness at meeting this program essential, and ponder the impact that this proficiency will have on your future.

Recommended: Refer to the work you completed for NURS 510 Policy, Organization, and Financing of Health Care and LDR 432 Principles of Leadership for Healthcare Organizations, as well as other courses, to gather academic examples and evidence of having met this essential.

Your reflection should be 1-1/2 pages APA formatted. Reference and cite any sources you use.

 

Write a brief analysis (no longer than 2 pages) of the connection between EBP and the Quadruple Aim.

To Prepare:

  • Read the articles by Sikka, Morath, & Leape (2015); Crabtree, Brennan, Davis, & Coyle (2016); and Kim et al. (2016) provided in the Resources.
  • Reflect on how EBP might impact (or not impact) the Quadruple Aim in healthcare.
  • Consider the impact that EBP may have on factors impacting these quadruple aim elements, such as preventable medical errors or healthcare delivery.

To Complete:

Write a brief analysis (no longer than 2 pages) of the connection between EBP and the Quadruple Aim.

Your analysis should address how EBP might (or might not) help reach the Quadruple Aim, including each of the four measures of:

  • Patient experience
  • Population health
  • Costs
  • Work life of healthcare providers

Explain the concept of a knowledge worker. Define and explain nursing informatics and highlight the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker.

The term “knowledge worker” was first coined by management consultant and author Peter Drucker in his book, The Landmarks of Tomorrow (1959). Drucker defined knowledge workers as high-level workers who apply theoretical and analytical knowledge, acquired through formal training, to develop products and services. Does this sound familiar?

Nurses are very much knowledge workers. What has changed since Drucker’s time are the ways that knowledge can be acquired. The volume of data that can now be generated and the tools used to access this data have evolved significantly in recent years and helped healthcare professionals (among many others) to assume the role of knowledge worker in new and powerful ways.

In this Assignment, you will consider the evolving role of the nurse leader and how this evolution has led nurse leaders to assume the role of knowledge worker. You will prepare a PowerPoint presentation with an infographic (graphic that visually represents information, data, or knowledge. Infographics are intended to present information quickly and clearly.) to educate others on the role of nurse as knowledge worker.

Reference: Drucker, P. (1959). The landmarks of tomorrow. New York, NY: HarperCollins Publishers.

To Prepare:

  • Review the concepts of informatics as presented in the Resources.
  • Reflect on the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker.
  • Consider how knowledge may be informed by data that is collected/accessed.
