implementing six sigma wishmewell hospital

Assignment 1: LASA 2: Implementing Six Sigma at Wishmewell Hospital

 

Emergency departments (ED) at many hospitals have been overwhelmed in the past year, as more patients without health insurance use the ED as a primary care solution. Wait times in the ED are increasing as more and more Americans are using the Emergency Department for their general health concerns. Across the country, the average ED wait time is now 222 minutes (approximately 3 hours, 42 minutes).

 

Wishmewell Hospital’s average wait time in the ED is more than five hours, and the board of directors is concerned about this long wait time. The danger is that a patient’s condition may escalate during his/her waiting time in Wishmewell’s ED.

 

The board has tasked you to take on a new quality improvement initiative to decrease wait time in the ED using the Six Sigma approach.

 

Develop a quality improvement program using the Six Sigma approach to decrease waiting time in Wishmewell’s emergency department.

 

The quality improvement program must include the following elements in an approximately 10-page MS Word document:

 

  • Describe the goals and objectives of your plan to decrease ER wait times at Wishmewell.

 

  • Describe each step of the Six Sigma (DMAIC) process:
    • Define the problem
    • Measure the process; what Six Sigma tools will you use?
    • Analyze the data; what tools will you use to analyze the data?
    • Improve the process; explain your improvement plan
    • Control; how will you continue to monitor the results and adjust as necessary?

 

  • Describe the key players (stakeholders) who should be members of your implementation team and explain why teamwork is an important factor in implementing a quality improvement program.

 

  • Explain at least three factors that might inhibit the implementation of your decreased wait time program.

 

Submit the quality improvement program plan to the M5: Assignment 1 Dropbox by Saturday, November 2, 2013.

    • Discuss an experience you have had with a team that struggled and never really got to the point of functioning smoothly. Explain the factors that might have contributed.

Begin by identifying which part of the Constitution addresses individual privacy rights. Do you believe that with today’s technology the Constitution still adequately protects those rights? Why, or why not?

Right to Privacy Assignment

Certain freedoms such as civil liberties and civil rights are concepts highly revered by Americans; however, there are times when these two concepts conflict in the name of safety and national security. The Digital Age is having a profound effect on the privacy of individuals in both their daily and private lives. With technology like cameras and smartphones, the activities of people are being recorded more, whether it is running a red light, entering a building, playing in a park, or using an ATM machine.

This assignment is based on your analysis regarding privacy versus safety and security. Address the questions below in a cohesive essay, which should be at least two pages in length, be double-spaced, and be typed in 12-point Times New Roman font.

  1. Begin by identifying which part of the Constitution addresses individual privacy rights. Do you believe that with today’s technology the Constitution still adequately protects those rights? Why, or why not?
  2. Select and describe an issue that has been in the news within the last 15 years and relates to constitutional rights of privacy as outlined in the Constitution and/or court rulings and national security. Explore how the need for national security balanced with civil liberties and civil rights is impacted by laws and court cases/rulings.
  3. Take a stand. Do you agree with the law or court case or ruling discussed in #2 above, or do you object? Where do you draw the line in this privacy issue? Explain your response.
  4. Explain how historical thought and tradition affect civil liberties and rights as they pertain to the issue you chose.
  5. What consequences do you support for those who violate constitutional rights?
  6. What, if any, compensation do you recommend for individuals whose rights have been violated by others?

You must use at least three sources to support your response. Make sure that all sources are cited and referenced using APA style.
