    Case Study Scenario

  • Title: “Monitoring Nursing-Sensitive Quality Indicators: An Audio Tutorial for New Nurses”

    Class 5-4 assessment Informatics and Nursing-Sensitive Quality Indicators
    Creating the audio scrip-presentation 
    Prepare an 8–10 minute audio training tutorial (video is optional) for new nurses on the importance of nursing-sensitive quality indicators.
    The focus of Assessment 4 is on how informatics support monitoring of nursing-sensitive quality indicator data. You will develop an 8–10 minute audio (or video) training module to orient new nurses in a workplace to a single nursing-sensitive quality indicator critical to the organization. 
    select one nursing-sensitive quality indicator to use as the focus for this assessment.-see attachment 
    Next, imagine you are a member of a Quality Improvement Council at any type of health care system, whether acute, ambulatory, home health, managed care, et cetera. Your Council has identified that newly hired nurses would benefit from comprehensive training on the importance of nursing-sensitive quality indicators. The Council would like the training to address how this information is collected and disseminated across the organization. It would also like the training to describe the role nurses have in accurate reporting and high-quality results.
    The Council indicates a recording is preferable to a written fact sheet due to the popularity of audio blogs. In this way, new hires can listen to the tutorial on their own time using their phone or other device.
    As a result of this need, you offer to create an audio tutorial orienting new hires to these topics. You know that you will need a script to guide your audio recording. You also plan to incorporate into your script the insights you learned from conducting an interview with an authority on quality monitoring and the use of technology to collect and report quality indicator data.
    You determine that you will cover the following topics in your audio tutorial script:
    Introduction: Nursing-Sensitive Quality Indicator
    What is the National Database of Nursing-Sensitive Quality Indicators?
    What are nursing-sensitive quality indicators?
    Which particular quality indicator did you select to address in your tutorial?
    Why is this quality indicator important to monitor?
    Be sure to address the impact of this indicator on the quality of care and patient safety.
    Why do new nurses need to be familiar with this particular quality indicator when providing patient care?
    Collection and Distribution of Quality Indicator Data
    According to your interview and other resources, how does your organization collect data on this quality indicator?
    How does the organization disseminate aggregate data?
    What role do nurses play in supporting accurate reporting and high-quality results?
    As an example, consider the importance of accurately entering data regarding nursing interventions.
    Cite a minimum of three scholarly and/or authoritative sources.

  • “Understanding and Managing Interpersonal Conflict: Communication Behaviors and Individual Differences”

    Write a 2-3 page article on interpersonal conflict. Define conflict and explain how communication behaviors and individual differences contribute to interpersonal conflict. Recommend a strategy for resolving interpersonal conflict.
    What is conflict? Why does it occur? What can be done to prevent it, and—perhaps more importantly—what can we learn from conflict? How can we transform conflict situations from negative to positive?
    Conflict arises due to varied perspectives, belief systems, and values. It is natural and common to disagree and to experience conflict. However, there are important differences between constructive and destructive conflict. One tool for examining destructive conflict is what Hocker, Berry, and Wilmot (2022) describe as “the four horsemen” of destructive conflict—criticizing, defensiveness, stonewalling, and contempt (p. 23).
    Communication behaviors also play a critical role in the conflict. Krauss and Morsella describe four paradigms of communication (as cited in Coleman, Deutsch, & Marcus, 2014). These paradigms are encoding/decoding, intentionalist, perspective-talking, and dialogic.
    This assessment will be scored on the following criteria:
    Define conflict.
    Describe communication behaviors that can lead to conflict.
    Explain how communication behaviors affect interpersonal relationships.
    Explain how individual differences contribute to interpersonal conflict.
    Recommend a strategy to resolve interpersonal conflict.
    Write coherently to support a central idea in appropriate APA format with correct grammar, usage, and mechanics.
    Suppose you have been asked to write an article on interpersonal conflict for a local organization with which you are affiliated. You may choose any type of interpersonal conflict, such as between spouses, among family members, between members of a social group, or other, but your focus must be interpersonal conflict.
    Complete the following:
    Define the term conflict. Do not simply copy a definition from a source!
    What does conflict mean to you?
    How does that compare with how others define conflict?
    Describe communication behaviors that can lead to conflict.
    Explain how communication behaviors affect interpersonal relationships. Be sure to consider communication behaviors in a variety of situations.
    Explain how differences in gender, age, culture, race, and so on can contribute to interpersonal conflict.
    Recommend at least one strategy that can be used to resolve interpersonal conflict.
    Because this is an article for publication, format your assessment following APA guidelines.

  • Title: Collaboration Among Advanced Registered Nurse Roles: A Comparison of Ethical, Educational, Leadership, and Specialty Responsibilities

    Advanced registered nurses work in highly collaborative environments and must collaborate with interdisciplinary teams in order to provide excellent patient care. Besides knowing the role and scope of one’s own practice, it is essential to understand the role and scope of other nurse specialties to ensure effective collaboration among nurses, the organization, and other professionals with whom advanced registered nurses regularly interact.
    Use the “Nursing Roles Graphic Organizer Template” to differentiate how advanced registered nurse roles relate to and collaborate with different areas of nursing practice. Compare your future role with one of the following: nurse educator; nurse leader; family nurse practitioner; acute care nurse practitioner; graduate nurse with an emphasis/specialty in public health, health care administration, business, or informatics; clinical nurse specialist; doctor of nursing practice. Indicate in the appropriate columns on the template which roles you are comparing.
    Make sure to compare the following areas of practice in your graphic organizer:
    Ethics
    Education
    Leadership
    Public Health
    Health Care Administration
    Informatics
    Business/Finance
    Specialty (e.g., Family, Acute Care)
    Include any regulatory bodies or certification agencies that provide guidance or parameters on how these roles incorporate concepts into practice.
