Title: “The Ethical Dilemma of Discharging a Stroke Patient: Balancing Quality Care with Resource Constraints”
SCENARIO SUMMARY:
62 yo stroke patient whose insurance only covers a 3 night stay at the hospital.
According to the insurance company, they recommend discharging her today. The patient’s nurse and healthcare team say she isn’t ready for discharge and still has to undergo rehab and physical therapy to relearn many basic daily movements.
This patient has no one to take care of her at home because her daughter works full time.
Others argue that 1-2 additional nights in the hospital aren’t going to solve these issues.
Also, if the hospital is overpacked, she is at risk of infection. If she stays longer, she has to pay out of pocket.
The healthcare team is conflicted on what to do and ultimately decide to discharge the patient.
This episode raises important questions about the ethical responsibilities of healthcare professionals. Even though Joan’s condition had not fully stabilized, a shortage of available beds, the hospital’s policy, and insurance algorithms appear to have dictated her care. What potential consequences and ethical dilemmas do you observe in this scenario? What ethical frameworks or guidelines should healthcare team members and their organizations follow when facing this situation?
In Addition, address ONLY three (3) of the following questions:
What emotions and/or internal conflict did you feel when you watched this episode?
How did your personal and professional background impact your feelings about Joan’s situation?
Do you feel that the administrators’ and practitioners’ responses were reasonable or typical?
How can healthcare team members balance the need to provide quality care with resource constraints?
Which ethical decision-making model might provide a systematic way to evaluate this ethical dilemma? -

Incorporating Credible Evidence into Evidence-Based Practice Models: A Review of Criteria and Relevance for a Chosen Diagnosis
The purpose of this analysis is to better understand what constitutes credibility of journal articles as well as websites. The role of the baccalaureate-prepared nurse in incorporating evidence-based research continues to growth in clinical practice. As quality improvement (QI) measures to reduce safety risks continue to be emphasized, the need for evidence-based models and evidence-based templates is growing. This type of systematic approach to incorporating evidence-based findings allows nurses to make clinical and operational decisions based upon the best available evidence. When the most up-to-date evidence-based findings are utilized, patient-centered care improves outcomes and enhances the patient experience.
Below is a quick review table of several well-known Evidence-Based Practice Models used to guide exploration:
Evidence-Based Practice Models
Iowa Model of Evidence-Based Practice
Stetler Model
Ottawa Model
PARiHS (Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services) Model
ACE (Academic Center for Evidence-Based Practice) Star Model
ARCC (Advancing Research and Clinical Practice Through Close Collaboration) Mode
John Hopkins Model
KTA (Knowledge-to-Action) Model
For this assessment:
Explain the criteria that should be used when determining the credibility of journal articles as well as websites.
Support your explanations with references to the literature or research articles that describe criteria that should be used to determine credibility.
Your identification and determination of credibility should be done within the context of your chosen diagnosis for this assessment. Your initial identification of resources should be of resources that will best help address the presented diagnosis you selected. Since you are locating resources to help provide evidence-based care for the diagnosis/health care issue you identified in the first assessment, you may want to begin your literature and evidence search from the databases that were identified.
Be sure to address the following in this assessment, which correspond to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. Please study the scoring guide carefully so that you will know what is needed for a distinguished score.
Describe a chosen diagnosis that could benefit from an evidence-based approach.
Explain criteria that should be considered when determining credibility of resources such as journal articles and websites.
Analyze the credibility and relevance of evidence and resources within the context of a chosen diagnosis.
This is where you are selecting the specific resources to help address the diagnosis you selected for the first assessment.
Identify the Evidence-Based Practice model and explain the importance of incorporating credible evidence into the EBP model used to address a chosen diagnosis.
Communicate using writing that is clear, logical, and professional with correct grammar and spelling using current APA style.
Length of submission: 2-4-page scholarly paper, this does not include the APA-formatted title page and reference list.
Number of references: Cite 3-5 sources of scholarly or professional evidence that support your findings and considerations. Resources should be no more than five years old.
APA formatting: References and citations are formatted according to current APA style.
