  • “Applying the IOWA Model to Reduce Hospital Readmissions: A Quality Improvement Project Proposal”

    To get started in this course the foundational start of your proposal that was created in N6323 Evidence Appraisal  or 6333 Indepentend Study will be submitted for review by your faculty in N6326 Project Proposal.  
    The paper should include the following:
    1. Title Page (UTA)
    2. The sections of the proposal covered in N6323/N6333
    3. Use APA format with proper title page, reference page, appendices, and proper headings
    4. Make all edits that your N6323/N6333 faculty discussed on your final submission before submitting for this assignment
    5. Submit  the edited paper from N6323/N6333.
    I have included all the corrections requested.  
    did not make the edits that were
    suggested last time. Your ROL is not synthesized. It is just a summary of all
    the articles which is way too long. You need to put the information together
    like Telemedicine has been shown to be increasing (Molfenter, et al, 2015,
    Nagayama, et al, 2023). I am happy to answer any questions about this. Please
    let me know if you would like to meet. Dr. Winegar

    2nd reviewer comments- I’m a bit
    confused by her gap where the statistics support communication challenges and
    staffing dissatisfaction and her PICOTS is on readmissions. I also saw 2
    disciplines addressed in her ROL (nursing and medicine). I did not address the
    edits, but here are my thoughts on the assignment for this week: Steps of the
    framework: I think stating the steps in the first paragraph will ease the flow
    into the discussion about applying the model to her project. I agree with your
    grade of 25/30. Connecting framework to project: Is her project a QI project or
    EBP? The interventions read like a QI project and the IOWA model is for EBP
    projects where the student implements a new practice. She has a bundle as an
    intervention which generally is more suited to a QI project. I’m not sure her
    project is a good fit for the IOWA model, and she does not provide her thoughts
    on why this is a good framework for her project. I would take off more points
    in this section and grade 10/20. Project question and framework: I agree with
    20/20.
    a QI framework  ( Plan, Do , Study , ACT) framework is needed not an EBP framework.  That section needs to be redone completely.   Please DM me with any questions needed.    
    It needs to be in the correct format with all extra information taken out as requested .  Please read the attached rubic with corrections requested also.

    This link will show you the key policy issues NASW is currently working on with Congress. Take some time looking over the 8 key policy issues. After familiarizing yourself with them all, choose one to complete your final paper on. Assume the person reading your paper has absolutely no idea what your key policy issue is or why it is so important (framing this way should guide you while writing it). Minimum 5 full pages, the title page, and the reference page do not count towards the minimum expectations. APA format is required.

  • “The Impact of Globalization on Tuberculosis Control: Lessons Learned from China’s DOTS Program”

    Describe the positive and negative impacts of globalization in the health problem of your
    selected article or case study.
     How was the problem addressed?
     What are the successes and challenges related to the problem? 
     How could lessons learned from the problem be used to address the same health issue
    —or a similar health issue—in another location? 
    According to the World Health Organization, tuberculosis bacillus is the third leading
    cause of death and nearly 1/3 of the world’s population is infected with the disease burden. The
    negative impact of globalization and the spread of TB were associated with financial hardship
    and infrastructure for public health systems that were limited in services to detect and treat the
    disease. TB is spread by inhaling infected bacteria in the air caused by active TB carriers. This
    causes the disease to migrate rapidly worldwide. The positive impact of globalization was that
    countries recognized a serious public health problem and governments all over the world
    working to sustain TB control strategies and standardized treatment with assistance from the
    World Bank and the WHO. The DOTS program was cost-effective, which rolled out rapidly in
    countries.
    In China, the Infectious and Endemic Disease Control (IEDC) program was established to
    help control their TB epidemic. The DOTS program was approached for early detection in
    patients and included a 6-month treatment, where they were directly observed with antibiotic
    intake. China adopted the program with patients seeking examinations, standardized treatment,
    and standardized reporting to develop evidence of the detected infectious TB cases and to cure
    those detected.
    The challenges to the DOTS program were insufficient financing and lack of dispensaries
    in poor provinces of China. Inadequate referrals of suspected TB cases from hospitals to the TB
    dispensaries was also a challenge as hospitals had no economic incentive to refer patients to
    dispensaries. One of China’s major successes with the national TB program was by
    implementing the cost-effective program, they were able to lower treatment failure rate with
    rapid scale-up and increased development. Their strong political support from their government
    and incentives provided to doctors and patients were essential to the success of the program.
    This large-scale TB control program was shown as the highest cure rate in China, which proves
    that it can be successfully implemented in other countries with a TB epidemic. The highest rates
    of TB occur in sub-Saharan Africa and can significantly reduce the health burden of TB with this
    program.

  • Title: “Improving Medication Safety: A Critical Analysis of the Need for a Quality Improvement Initiative in a Healthcare Setting”

    Critical analysis 
    Discuss the rationale for why you chose your QI initiative. Refer to
    local, national and international evidence that supports the need for a change
    in practice and your review of the literature. You need to evaluate and
    appraise the evidence you find making clear links to current practice within
    your Trust and justifying the need for a change in practice.
    The evidence for this need for this change comes
    from your literature review and review of local/national guidance so it is
    important to be thorough in your searches. You should use the relevant search
    strategy and detail this (i.e PICO) in the main body of the text or as an
    appendix.  You should report the results
    of your search using a PRISMA diagram

  • Exploring Cultural Differences: An Analysis of “Where to Invade Next?”

    Short paper based on the documentary – “Where to invade next?” 
    Your task:
    Watch “Where to invade next” and read chapter 3 (Culture).  Also review material regarding chapter 3 posted on CANVAS.  Your task is to analyze this documentary and write a short essay.  Michael Moore visits nine countries.  In each country he picks up one value to examine difference between American society and the country he was visiting.  For example, in Norway, prison system was based on the value of “rehabilitation” (not revenge).  This value guides every aspect of incarceration. Use the concepts presented in chapter 3 to write this paper.  Please make sure that the following prompts are addressed in your paper.
    Prompts:
    1.Define the concept of culture (use the textbook definition) and discuss how this documentary has explored the concept of culture (5 points)
    Define the concept of Value (use the textbook definition). In each country visited in the documentary, one value is discussed. Your task is to compare and contrast values of the following two countries with corresponding values in the US — for example prison system in the US as compared to Norway(20 points)
    Country 1- Iceland
    Country 2- Portugal
