Improving Discharge Procedures and Barriers to Reduce Poor Care DQ
Describe any barriers or challenges you have encountered in the process of implementing your project. Discuss:
- Were the barriers or challenges unforeseen or did you anticipate that they might be issues? (Talk about how covid19 affected project)
- Discuss the root cause of the barriers or challenges. (Low census on regular patients in the ED) (unable to obtain accurate results after project implementation due to this low census) (freestanding ED was converted into a testing for covid19 site and project implementation was delayed)
- What workaround approach or solution did you plan to use if the barrier or challenge was anticipated? What workaround approaches or solutions were effective? (Waited for covid19 to clear up a little) (Zoom meetings were use to train healthcare staff on project implementation instead the classic way in person classroom) (distributed printed material and explained material to each staff in person by appointment following cdc covid19 guidelines) etc.
- What have you learned as a result of encountering the barrier or challenge? ( I learned that we can work anything around each challenge we just have to look for the options and get an action plan together and make it work without quitting just because a little stone in the middle of the road) etc…
For this Assignment you will create a Microsoft Word document that:
- is 6 pages in length (excluding title and references)
- is supported with a minimum of seven scholarly peer review sources from 2017-2020
- follows the conventions of Standard English (correct grammar, punctuation, etc.)
- is well ordered, logical, and unified, as well as original and insightful;
- displays superior content, organization, style, and mechanics; and;
- uses APA formatting and citation style.
You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
