Assignment Instructions:
Consider the following hypothetical scenario:
You have been chosen as your nursing unit’s representative for a quality review team at your healthcare system. The team has been asked to review technology used at the hospital in a protocol or process to improve patient outcomes (for example: catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI), central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI), fall prevention, etc.).When choosing a protocol, think about the types of technologies used to implement and/or perform the protocol. For this assignment, you have been tasked with completing a review of the technologies used within one protocol. You will need to create a PowerPoint presentation which describes the results of the critique you have performed and recommendations to the group.
Describe and critique a protocol used on your healthcare unit using the guidelines listed below. Describe the purpose and significance of the protocol and the technologies used. Determine if the technologies used in the protocol communicate. Identify any gaps noted and provide recommendations. Identify other stakeholders within the organization who should receive this feedback.
Please note: If you do not work in a healthcare facility, work remotely, or are a home health nurse, consider a process that you carry out to ensure patient safety. What technology do you use in performing this process? Create the PowerPoint presentation based upon the technology you use and follow the guidelines listed below.
PowerPoint Guidelines:
Application: Use Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 or versions after 2007 (no XP).
Length: The PowerPoint slide show is expected to be no more than 15 slides in length (not including the title slide and reference list slide).
Submission: Submit your files via the drop box: “Technologies used in Protocol” by 11:59 PM on Sunday of week 5.
Technical writing: APA format is required.
Submit assignment with your last name in document title; example: “Smith_protocol_week5”
Late Submission: See the course policy on late submissions.
Tutorial: If needed, Microsoft Office has many templates and tutorials to help you get started.
 Assignment Guidelines:
Your presentation should include a title slide, an introduction slide, summary slide, and reference slide. The title slide, introduction slide, and reference slide do not count towards the presentation slide numbers.
The introduction should briefly describe the purpose for this presentation. Identify a protocol used in the healthcare setting you normally practice (if currently not practicing, find a protocol used in a healthcare setting near you). The introduction should establish a professional tone for the presentation.
Discuss the following features of the protocol:

Provide a general description and significance of the protocol.
Describe how the protocol aligns with evidence-based practice (e. identify a minimum of 2 scholarly articles that support/refute actions identified in the protocol)

Identify any technologies currently used by healthcare system to complete the actions in the protocols

Provide a brief description of each technology used in the protocol
Describe the purpose for the technology use (g. communication, assess information, etc.)

Describe if and how the technologies communicate among each other.
Describe how the nurse is able to access the information needed to complete the protocol.
What gaps in technology communicating with technology are noted after reviewing this information?
Summarize the analysis and offer recommendations to achieve better protocol results and improve the use of technology within the protocol (e. what would one recommend to refine the protocol?)
What is the process to provide feedback of the recommendations in addition to your supervisor? (e. practice committee, supervisor/manager, etc.)
The following are best practices in preparing this project:
Provide a professional presentation.
Review directions thoroughly.
Cite all sources within the slide show as well as in the reference page.
Proofread prior to final submission.
Spell check for spelling and grammar errors prior to final submission.
Abide by the GCON academic integrity policy

For this discussion, consider the ways in which technology and informatics are used to support evidence-based practice. Please address each of the following questions in your discussion response for this week:
Choose a specific evidence-based practice (examples: CAUTI reduction, sepsis protocol, SCIP protocol, bedside shift report, etc.).

Describe how technology and informatics are used to support the interventions used in practice?
Describe how employing evidence-based practice guidelines improve patient outcomes?

What benefits and challenges have you experienced with (the integration of) information technology in your practice?
What strategies did you, or could you, use to overcome these challenges?

 Review the scenario and address the questions below. 
You are a nurse practitioner employed in a busy primary care office with responsibilities for managing the office staff, including the medical assistants who aid in client care as well as filing, answering calls from clients, processing laboratory results, and taking prescription renewal requests from clients and pharmacies. The office is part of a larger hospital system. One of the medical assistants has worked in the practice for 10 years and is very proficient at her job. She knows almost every client in the practice and has an excellent rapport with all the providers.  
During an office visit, a client requested a refill for an amoxicillin prescription. When examining the empty bottle, you noted that the date on the bottle was 1 week ago. You also noted your name printed on the label as the prescriber though you did not see the client last week. The client explained that she called last week concerned about her cough and spoke to the medical assistant, who assured her that a prescription would be sent to the pharmacy for the concern. You do not recall having discussed this client with the medical assistant; the other providers in the practice deny speaking to or consulting about the client.  
Include the following sections: 

Application of Course Knowledge:  Answer all questions/criteria with explanations and detail. 

Based on the situation above, what are the ethical and legal implications for the practice at the micro-, meso-, and macro-level of the system? 
What changes do you recommend to prevent further episodes of the problem behavior? What coaching and feedback skills can be used to discuss the event with the medical assistant? 
Which change model would you use to implement the identified change and why: Lewin’s Theory of Planned Change, Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA), or Kotter’s 8-Step Process for Leading Change?  
Identify and discuss one barrier to implementing the change process. Identify and discuss one factor that facilitated the change process. 

Professionalism in Communication: Communicate with minimal errors in English grammar, spelling, syntax, and punctuation.
Reference Citation: Use current APA format to format citations and references and is free of errors.
