Introduction
The first step in any effective project is planning. This assessment provides an opportunity for you to strengthen your understanding of how to plan and negotiate the coordination of care for a particular health care problem. Include physical, psychosocial, and cultural considerations for this health care problem. Identify and list available community resources for a safe and effective continuum of care.
NOTE: You are required to complete this assessment before Assessment 4.
Preparation
As you begin to prepare this assessment, you are encouraged to complete the Care Coordination Planning activity. Completion of this will provide useful practice, particularly for those of you who do not have care coordination experience in community settings. The information gained from completing this activity will help you succeed with the assessment. Completing formatives is also a way to demonstrate engagement.
Scenario
Imagine that you are a staff nurse in a community care center. Your facility has always had a dedicated case management staff that coordinated the patient plan of care, but recently, there were budget cuts and the case management staff has been relocated to the inpatient setting. Care coordination is essential to the success of effectively managing patients in the community setting, so you have been asked by your nurse manager to take on the role of care coordination. You are a bit unsure of the process, but you know you will do a good job because, as a nurse, you are familiar with difficult tasks. As you take on this expanded role, you will need to plan effectively in addressing the specific health concerns of community residents.
To prepare for this assessment, you may wish to:
Review the assessment instructions and scoring guide to ensure that you understand the work you will be asked to complete.
Allow plenty of time to plan your chosen health care concern.

WEEK 3 DISCUSSION: SAMPLING
Have you ever watched a commercial that touts “four out of five doctors recommend a particular product”? Have you ever wondered how the company is able to make such claims? These types of claims are created using the research method of sampling. Sampling, “involves selecting a group of people, events, behaviors, or other elements with which to conduct a study” (Gray & Grove, 2020). 
There are different sampling methods and techniques, with ranging validity outcomes. Therefore, it is important to determine the technique that is most valid. Much of the outcome will be dependent on the particular group sampled (or the population), so a sampling plan will be integral before sampling occurs.
For this Discussion, reflect on the population in your area of practice. Consider the most appropriate use for this population and potential challenges that may affect sampling in this population. Then, think about how you might address these challenges and what strategies you might implement. How might a different population yield similar or conflicting results?

20 y/o female college student has had abdominal pain for the last two weeks. Some mornings, she has nausea and vomiting, but today, she is here with abdominal cramps and nausea. She has lost 8 pounds while having no appetite. She has been having diarrhea for the last few days. No past medical/surgical History or relevant social history.
Identify the patient’s chief complaint. 
Identify the most appropriate physical exams and diagnostic tests to gather more information about the patient’s condition. Be specific and explain your reasoning. 
Explain how the results would be used to make a diagnosis. 

Research Questions & Hypothesis
For this assignment, write a well written paper that explains the differences between the types of quantitative research questions and hypotheses. Be sure to include all of the different types of questions that are presented in Creswell and Creswell (2018) Chapter 7 including descriptive and inferential questions.
Submission Instructions:
The paper is to be 4 – 5 pages in length, excluding the title and references page, and according to current APA style.
Incorporate a minimum of 5 current (published within last five years) scholarly journal articles or primary legal sources (statutes, court opinions) within your work. The paper is to be clear and concise and students will lose points for improper grammar, punctuation and misspelling. Complete and submit the assignment by 11:59 PM ET Sunday.
Late work policies, expectations regarding proper citations, acceptable means of responding to peer feedback, and other expectations are at the discretion of the instructor.

Project Translation and Planning There are 2 parts to this summative assessment. In this assessment, you will work through the planning and implementation stages of the project. This will require you to determine the needed goals and resources and select an evidence-based practice (EBP) model.
Part 1 – Literature Review
Research best practices to identify an effective intervention for your selected problem. Your goal is to gather evidence from scholarly literature to support the most effective intervention strategy.
The performance appraisal tools in this week’s learning activities will help you determine appropriate scholarly sources of evidence to cite.
Locate at least 3 original research articles that support your proposed solution to your selected problem.
• The articles must be peer-reviewed, published within the past 5 years, and statistically significant.
To begin, write a 350-word summary of each article in which you:
• Identify current guidelines or best practices relating to your proposed solution, or if there are protocols, the current standard of care.
• Define your proposed intervention(s) to address the problem.
• Explain how the intervention will result in a solution to the problem.
Part 2 – Project Translation and Planning
– Identify the solution that you determined would be most effective in resolving the stated problem and define the intended outcomes of implementing the change (e.g., your improvement goal). For quality to improve, a change must occur. That change must be quantifiable. In other words, it must be measurable.
– Create an implementation plan in which you:
Explain how you will measure the change and how you will know when you have reached your improvement goal.
– Create a list of outcomes required to reach your outcomes goal. This will allow you to determine the actions needed and the priority of tasks that will result in the desired outcome.
– Determine who will be responsible for each outcome (typically each is assigned to a team member who is motivated to see the successful implementation of the plan).
– Determine the actions needed to take place for each outcome to occur. Some questions to consider when determining what action needs to take place include:
Who do we need to talk to?
Departments
Stakeholders
What needs to be decided?
What resources are needed?
Budget
Personnel
Supplies and equipment
What milestones need to be set to know we’re on track?
When do we need to check on the progress of those milestones?
Develop an overall time frame for the project.
What potential setbacks do we need to plan for?
Develop a risk management plan.
Do any tasks need to be done before taking this action?
Establish a budget, roles, and who will be responsible for what.
– Determine how you will monitor progress. This will provide you with the means of tracking actions as they are completed and will make you aware of actions that are late or off track.
Select an EBP model to guide the implementation of the plan.
Remember that without a measure, progress becomes a matter of opinion, and opinions can easily change over the course of an implementation timeline.
– Create an evaluation plan. Your evaluation plan will define the standard of measurement for progress and will include:
– Measurable outcomes (both short-term and long-term formative assessments and summative assessments)
– Data to be collected and how and when it is to be collected
Established evaluation points where data can be evaluated, and adjustments made to the implementation plan as a result
Format your assignment in 1,300-word paper
