A PICOT starts with a designated patient population in a particular clinical area and identifies clinical problems or issues that arise from clinical care. The intervention should be an independent, specified nursing change intervention. The intervention cannot require a provider prescription. Include a comparison to a patient population not currently receiving the intervention, and specify the timeframe needed to implement the change process.

Formulate a PICOT statement using the PICOT format provided in the assigned readings. The PICOT statement will provide a framework for your capstone project.

In a paper of 500-750 words, clearly identify the clinical problem and how it can result in a positive patient outcome.

Make sure to address the following on the PICOT statement:

1. Evidence-Based Solution
2. Nursing Intervention
3. Patient Care
4. Health Care Agency
5. Nursing Practice

Comparative Analysis Paper

In Week 9, we watch two documentaries on the memory of the Black Panther Party. The first is Black Panthers: Vanguard of the Revolution, directed by Stanley Nelson and produced by PBS in 2015. The second is Power to the People: The Black Panther Party and Beyond, directed by Lee Lew-Lee and produced by an independent film group in Los Angeles (Electronic News Group) in 1996. In 400-600 words, you will write a comparative analysis that puts these two films into conversation with one another. The paper requires you take a stand with the goal of persuading a more general public of your point of view. The short piece should be informed by the readings, screenings, and lectures from the course. The piece also needs to engage not only the content of the documentaries, but also the styles in which they are presented.

Goals of the paper:

• To write a clear, short, and accessible essay that persuades a general audience of your point-of-view.
• To illustrate your knowledge of our course content in order to build your credibility as a writer and expert on your topic.
• To use this expertise of the course content to construct a specific, original, and sophisticated thesis (point-of-view) about these two documentaries.
• To incorporate your own particular interests and creativity into the work by choosing what specific element you want to write about.
• To exhibit your ability to analyze and argue about both the content and form (style) of the documentaries assigned.

Grading Rubric:

• Argumentation: Does your essay clearly and persuasively argue for a specific thesis that is original, clear, and sophisticated? Does your essay illustrate your use of the course content to make your argument (the readings, class discussions, other media we’ve seen)?
• Organization: Is your essay organized clearly and persuasively? Are you using topic sentences that draw in your reader and direct the ideas in your paragraph? Are your paragraphs both cohesive and organized in a logical way that supports your argument?
• Evidence: Does your essay use strong, specific examples and vivid descriptions to help prove your thesis?
• Language and Mechanics: Does your essay use strong word choices? Is it grammatically correct and exhibit a strong, persuasive style that fits a less formal genre of writing?

Writing Tips:

• Avoid too much summary. A quick intro is all that is needed. Jump right into your thesis.
• Keep in mind the documentaries were made twenty years apart, one in 1996, one in 2015.
• Focus in on a manageable topic:
  • a specific element of BPP history, and how it is depicted in the documentaries (self-defense, internationalism, revolutionary education and politics, survival programs, state repression, political prisoners, women’s roles, role of the media, multi-racial coalitions)
  • the success of one documentary over the other in expressing a particular message about the BPP
  • something that is missing in one documentary and why that is significant (or something that is missing in both documentaries)
  • a focus on a particular formal element (editing, narrative structure, ect.) and how it is used differently to different effects in both documentaries (or something that is similar and connects them)
  • A focus on spectatorship and affect (the emotional experience of the viewer)—what emotions are elicited by the documentaries? How do their affective qualities differ?
  • A focus on how the documentaries speak to their specific historical conditions (1996 & 2015)
• Use the writing center here at UCI. There are options to make an appointment with a writing tutor, to walk-in and see a peer tutor, or an email submission option.

**Please feel free to focus on your own manageable topic. You do not need to choose from the suggested list above. The paper is meant to give you some liberty to write on something that strikes you as interesting, significant, and important.

Select a hip-hop artist of your choice, as well as, a song by the artist. This assignment is worth 35 points and should be 2-3 pages typed in Times New Roman, 12 pt. font, double-spaced, and the in-text citations, as well as, references should be documented in APA format.
This assignment should include a brief background of the artist chosen and any pertinent information that may contribute to the understanding of the lyrical content of the song selected. In addition, it is recommended that the song be translated either line by line or verse by verse depending on which is most appropriate for explaining its content.
This assignment is worth 35 points. Students will be graded on the substance of background information provided, as well as, the accuracy and translation of lyrical content. The lyrical content analysis must include the thesis/main idea of the song and evidence in the lyrics that supports the main idea of the song. The organization, development, and grammar in the essay will also be graded.
the song is still by dr dre and the artist is dr dre

Note: The number of beds and operating rooms increased from 2017 to 2018.

Part 2: Graph the Data (Complete Part 2 of the Adverse Event Template)

• Once you choose your adverse event, graph the data from the chart above. You will graph Column A and B against the chosen event (i.e., number of medication errors, number of patient falls, or number of post-operative hemorrhages). For example, if I were to choose medication errors, I would enter the details from column A, B, and C. Once your graph is complete, copy/paste it in the space indicated within the template.
• Include an analysis of the data within the spaces indicated in the template:
  • Discuss the frequency of the adverse event as compared to the increase or decrease of patient discharges.
  • Analyze the data (what is the data telling you?).
  • Identify the possible factors, in your opinion, that could be attributed to the change.

Part 3: Create the CQI tool (Complete Part 3 of the Adverse Event Template)

• Choose one of the CQI Tools listed below that best aligns with your chosen Adverse Event. Each of the tools listed below are hyperlinked to the Institute for Health Care Improvement website, which discusses and illustrates examples of each type of tool.
  • Fishbone (Cause and Effect) Diagram (Links to an external site.)
  • Flowchart (Links to an external site.)
  • Pareto Chart (Links to an external site.)
• Next, you will be responsible for creating the CQI Tool, completing the tool, taking a screenshot, and copying/pasting the screenshot into the space indicated within the Adverse Event Template.
  • If you are unfamiliar with these tools, please refer to the recommended readings, specifically the Siriwardena (2009) article from Week 2, Using Quality Improvement Methods for Evaluating Health Care.

Part 4: Future Prevention (Complete Part 4 of the Adverse Event Template)

After describing the event in Part 1, using a Graph in Part 2 and CQI tool in Part 3, you will apply the PDSA model in Part 4 to summarize the process and steps that your team would recommend to the CEO to prevent this adverse event from reoccurring.

• Respond to the items in Part 4 of the template by including the following:
  • Plan
    • Identify the problem that caused the adverse event/
    • Identify your objective.

    • Describe how you would communicate the plan to the stakeholders.
    • Discuss the reasons for collecting the data associated with the chosen scenario.
    • Identify where you will pilot the new plan of action.
    • Identify who, what, or why for your pilot of the improvement plan. (When you implement any new plan of action in a hospital setting, you will do a pilot of the new plan in a small, targeted area or department. For example, if you chose medication errors, a group of patients will be on the same floor [e.g., medical unit, cardiac unit, etc.]. If you chose patient falls, the patients will have the same diagnosis [e.g., hip replacement, etc.]. If you chose post-operative hemorrhage, the patients will have the same type of surgical procedure [e.g., abdominal surgeries, etc.].)
  • Do
    • Develop three possible solutions to the problem.
    • Select one of the possible solutions to implement in the pilot phase.
    • Discuss the result of the pilot (create your own scenario).
    • Explain in detail the methods utilized to communicate the improvement process to the area chosen for the pilot phase.
  • Study
    • Summarize the data collected.
    • Discuss how you would measure whether the pilot solution was effective.
    • List observations.
    • Discuss any problems that may have occurred in your scenario.
    • Discuss any communication issues.
    • Compare your objective in the Plan phase to that of the actual pilot result.
    • Discuss what needs to be revised in your improvement plan to meet your objective.
  • Act
    • Discuss your revised plan.
    • Describe how you are going to implement the plan hospital-wide.
    • Describe how you will continually monitor the improvement plan to ensure sustained success.
    • Determine if one of the steps you are recommending would require a check and balance step.
      • Discuss why it is necessary. (It is important to keep in mind that some processes require a system of checks and balances.)
