I created an in service presentation for my staff and i need online resource tool it to help iniatiate my plan which my staff can use.
My safety improvement plan is prevent and decrease pressure ulcer in health care setting by teamwork and collaboration among healthcare team.
Using Google Sites, assemble an online resource tool kit containing at least 12 annotated resources that you consider critical to the success of your safety improvement initiative. These resources should enable nurses and others to implement and maintain the safety improvement you have developed.
4 Main categories (3 sources each) as total of 12:
- Ways to prevent pressure ulcer in health care setting using assessment tools etc.
- Evidence base treatment plans to treat pressure ulcer once it already occured to a patient.
- Ways to collaborate and communicate to different disciplines in health care setting such as Nurses, Nurse assistants, Dieticians etc. about the plan
- General practices and safety plan to prevent patient identification errors to continue care effectively to a patient with pressure ulcer.
Nurses are key players in patient care
coordination, which can lead to reduced costs and improvements in patient
safety in healthcare settings. As patient advocates and safety stewards, nurses
promote information sharing between disciplines through interdisciplinary
collaboration and communication to prevent misidentification cases that might
occur throughout the care
Following the recommended scheme, you would collect 3 resources on average for each of the 4 categories focusing on a specific patient safety issue. Each resource listing should include the following:
- An APA-formatted citation of the resource with a working link.
- A description of the information, skills, or tools provided by the resource.
- A brief explanation of how the resource can help nurses better understand or implement the safety improvement initiative pertaining to a specific patient safety issue.
- A description of how nurses can use this resource and when its use may be appropriate.
Remember that you must make your site “public” so that your faculty can access it. Check out the Google Sites resources for more information.
Here is an example entry:
- Merret, A., Thomas, P., Stephens, A., Moghabghab, R., & Gruneir, M. (2011). A collaborative approach to fall prevention. Canadian Nurse, 107(8), 24–29.
- This article presents the Geriatric Emergency Management-Falls Intervention Team (GEM-FIT) project. It shows how a collaborative nurse lead project can be implemented and used to improve collaboration and interdisciplinary teamwork, as well as improve the delivery of health care services. This resource is likely more useful to nurses as a resource for strategies and models for assembling and participating in an interdisciplinary team than for specific fall-prevention strategies. It is suggested that this resource be reviewed prior to creating an interdisciplinary team for a collaborative project in a health care setting.
Additionally, be sure that your plan addresses the following, which corresponds to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. Please study the scoring guide carefully so you understand what is needed for a distinguished score.
- Identify necessary resources to support the implementation and continued sustainability of a safety improvement initiative pertaining to a specific patient safety issue.
- Analyze the usefulness of resources to the role group responsible for implementing quality and safety improvements focusing on a specific patient safety issue.
- Analyze the value of resources to reduce patient safety risk related to a specific patient safety issue.
- Present reasons and relevant situations for use of resource tool kit by its target audience.
- Communicate in a clear, logically structured, and professional manner that applies current APA style and formatting.
