TOPIC: Impact of Medication Administration Errors on 3-4-Year-old Leukemia Patients  

The attached table need to be adjusted from a research based to a “Quality Improvement”

The problem statement must be written in the following SAMPLE format:

SAMPLE “It was not known if or to what degree the implementation of a structured home self-management program would impact heart failure exacerbations and perceived quality of life when compared to pre-implementation data among heart failure patients followed at a primary care clinic in the South Eastern US”

The 10 Strategic Points, the Prospectus, and the DPI Project Proposal together comprise the progressive set of documents that lead to completion of the learner’s Final DPI Project. Each of these documents incorporates a set of strategic points that need to be clear, simple, correct, and aligned to ensure the proposal and final DPI project each learner submits throughout the project development process will be achievable, valuable, and credible.

Work began on these strategic points in the form of the “10 Strategic Points for the Prospectus, Proposal, and Direct Practice Improvement Project” in DNP-815, and a revised working draft of that document was submitted in DNP-820, DNP 830, and finalized in DNP-840 . Here, in DNP-955, the learner will submit a final draft of the 10 Strategic Points in table format for final review by the DPI chairperson and DPI committee.

Note: This completed assignment will also be submitted as Appendix A in the DPI Project Proposal in Topic 7 and Topic 8. These points must be submitted in a table formatted according to this template.

General Requirements:

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:

· Locate your “10 Strategic Points for the Prospectus, Proposal, and Direct Practice Improvement Project” document submitted in DNP-840. Or download the template from the DC network. ATTACHED

· While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines.

· You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite. 

Directions:

1. If not already completed, make any revisions and incorporate all remaining instructor feedback from prior courses into your revised working draft of the 10 Strategic Points document.

Mental illness is explained as social, emotional, and psychological wellbeing. Most people are unaware that they have a mental illness that can affect their daily lives. According to the Canadian nursing journal 2017, 350 million people worldwide suffer from depression, and more than 800,000 worldwide die from suicide each year. Waters, Furukawa, and Jorissen (2018) states that mental illness affects 5% of the United States population and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, which is very costly. This cost includes hospitalization and emergency room visits. I can relate to this statistic, in the emergency room that I was working approximately 1 out of 40 patients present with either suicidal thoughts, depression, anxiety, or simply just feeling down.

        Week one lesson mention that mental health is the cause of most premature death and disability for both male and female. As per global burden diseases, it’s one of the top illnesses in the nation and worldwide. According to the national institute of health, mental illness accounts for 13 % of the global disease burden, with major depression being the largest contributor. The emergency room that I worked in was a covid designated center in the New York City area. The effect of this pandemic was so devastating to our patients, families, and employees.  The aftereffect has left most of the patients and staff with anxiety and depression. I have triage patient that comes to the ER after catching covid with complains that they are now experiencing anxiety and not sleeping well. This is putting a strain on their health, causing new-onset high blood pressure, weight loss, and loss of appetite. “the covid 19 pandemic will create unpresidential health and social challenges both in the US and international” (Druss B.G,2020).

      The stakeholders who are affected by mental health are nurses, mental health providers, health care facilities, insurance companies, family, and the community. Stakeholders involved in the resolution are the WHO executive board. They are urgings people to protect the rights of people with mental illness. Mental illness can affect anyone at any given time.

The clinical practice guideline used is APA (America Psychiatric Association), provide evidence-based recommendation for the treatment and assessment of mental illness. It can also assist in clinical decision making by presenting systematical development. APA’s guideline development process intended to meet standards for the development of “trustworthy” practice guidelines recommended by the National Academy of Medicine, formerly the Institute of Medicine (IOM). The standards address transparency, management of conflicts of interest, the composition of writing groups, the use of systematic reviews of evidence, articulation, and rating of recommendations, external review, and updating.

    The intervention I would propose is that as a healthcare worker, we should educate ourselves on how to identify and treat early mental illness before it gets severed. We need to look at the person as a whole and figure out what’s the underlining cause of the disease and provide early interventions instead of only looking at the disease itself. By doing so, we might be able to prevent premature death and disability and help patients live a healthy normal life.

I NEED A COMMENT FOR THIS POST WITH AT LEAST TWO-THREE  PARAGRAPH AND TWO SOURCES NO LATER THAN FIVE YEARS

To Prepare:

• Review the Healthcare Program/Policy Evaluation Analysis Template provided in the Resources.
• Select an existing healthcare program or policy evaluation or choose one of interest to you.
• Review community, state, or federal policy evaluation and reflect on the criteria used to measure the effectiveness of the program or policy described.

The Assignment: (2–3 pages)

Based on the program or policy evaluation you selected, complete the Healthcare Program/Policy Evaluation Analysis Template. Be sure to address the following:

• Describe the healthcare program or policy outcomes.
• How was the success of the program or policy measured?
• How many people were reached by the program or policy selected?
• How much of an impact was realized with the program or policy selected?
• At what point in program implementation was the program or policy evaluation conducted?
• What data was used to conduct the program or policy evaluation?
• What specific information on unintended consequences was identified?
• What stakeholders were identified in the evaluation of the program or policy? Who would benefit most from the results and reporting of the program or policy evaluation? Be specific and provide examples.
• Did the program or policy meet the original intent and objectives? Why or why not?
• Would you recommend implementing this program or policy in your place of work? Why or why not?
• Identify at least two ways that you, as a nurse advocate, could become involved in evaluating a program or policy after 1 year of implementation.

National Practice Problem Exploration

Evidence translation begins with the identification of a problem or concern. Reflect upon the eight national practice problems presented in the Global Burden of Disease Research. (The top eight practice problems that burden the overall health of the United States include obesity; diabetes; heart disease; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); mental illness; cancer; addiction (alcohol and opioid); and, patient safety *(falls, pressure ulcers, healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), and medication errors). Select one of the practice problems to address the following:

1-  From a global/nationwide perspective, how does the selected practice problem impact nurses, nursing care, healthcare organizations, and the quality of care being provided?

2-  Identify the national-level key stakeholders who are affected by the practice problem and stakeholders involved in the resolution. *(stakeholders—healthcare providers, educators, business leaders, social service providers, community organizations, and clergy) 

3-  Are the clinical practice guidelines used to address this problem? Why or why not? If used, provide a brief overview of the clinical practice guidelines (CPG). If a CPG is not used, propose an intervention that could be implemented on a national scale to address the problem.
