NURS 8114 EBP, Quality Improvement and Implementation Science: Interrelationships
NURS 8114 EBP, Quality Improvement and Implementation Science: Interrelationships
From your experience as a registered nurse or APRN, how does change occur in a health care setting? How do outdated protocols get updated or the actual root cause of a persistent problem get uncovered and resolved?
You may have answers that speak to the commitment of health care organizations to continually improve. You may also have examples that demonstrate the inherent challenges in any change initiative. If only change were as clear and quick as striking a key. Rather, it requires a whole series of figurative keystrokes and, depending on the setting, may seem as though the whole world needs to be onboard.
NURS 8114 EBP, Quality Improvement and Implementation Science: Interrelationships
This week you will explore a particular set of keys to quality improvement in health care. It involves reliance on science for evidence to inform nursing practice and implementation that makes sense to practitioners and patients. Your getting-started activities will include observing for and blogging about evidence-based practice, and looking for health care settings in your locale for investigating needs and acceptance of practice change.
Learning Objectives
Students will:
- Evaluate application of evidence-based practice in health care organizations
- Analyze approaches to advocacy of evidence-based practice in health care organizations
NURS 8114 EBP, Quality Improvement and Implementation Science Interrelationships
- Compare health care settings for quality improvement projects
- Justify practice problems for quality improvement
- Analyze site and stakeholder requirements for quality improvement projects in nursing practice settings
- Compare stakeholder requirements for quality improvement projects across nursing practice settings
- Apply implementation science frameworks/models for evidence-based practice quality improvement projects

| The Assignment: Part 1: Key Project Elements In a paper of 6–8 pages, plus cover page and references page, include the following: • Describe the three health care settings that you explored as proposed sites for an EBP QI project. For each health care setting, identify the following defining features: patient population, mission, public or private entity, single institution or member of a corporation, and others you identify as significant. |
Points Range:9 (4.50%) – 10 (5.00%)
The response provides a clear, accurate, and detailed description of three health care settings that you explored as proposed sites for an EBP QI project, with a clear, accurate, and detailed identification of all defining features and others you identify as significant. |
Points Range:8 (4.00%) – 8 (4.00%)
The response provides a clear and accurate description of three health care settings that you explored as proposed sites for an EBP QI project, with clear and accurate identification of all defining features; there may not be others identified as significant. |
Points Range:7 (3.50%) – 7 (3.50%)
The response provides a vague and/or inaccurate description of three health care settings that you explored as proposed sites for an EBP QI project, with vague and/or inaccurate identification of defining features and no others identified as significant. |
Points Range:0 (0.00%) – 6 (3.00%)
The response provides a vague and inaccurate description of three or fewer health care settings that you explored as proposed sites for an EBP QI project, with vague and inaccurate or missing identification of defining features and no others identified as significant. |
