Patient Safety Initiative -Improving Medication Administration (Outpatient Care)
SPECIFIC AIM: We aim to Improve the medication administration process and involve all staff within 6 months
In the microsystem consisting of 14 family practice and urgent care clinics, there is not a standard process based on evidence based practices for medication administration. With and estimated of 400-600 medications (immunizations included) being administered per day, without a standard of care protocol, the risk for medication errors is evident.
Objectives and changes anticipated based on implementation of the project is to engage staff in support for improving medication administration standard of care based …

Introduction •The leading cause of hospitalization in the United States is heart failure among adults 65 years of age. •One million patients are hospitalized every year with a primary diagnosis of heart failure, resulting in a Medicare expenditure exceeding $17 billion. •For every five patients admitted to a hospital with congestive heart failure (CHF), one patient will be readmitted within 30 days of discharge . •75 percent of early heart failure readmissions are preventable. •Medicare introduced the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program that became effective in 2012. • This program established financial penalties for greater than expected readmissions for primary diagnoses …

Abstract
Diabetes has been a growing concern in the United States due to the rapidly increasing incidence of this disease over the past decade. In their 2014 report, the CDC reported there were 29.1 million people diagnosed with diabetes in 2012, comprising 9.3% of the total US population. In addition, according to the CDC, 1.7 million people were newly diagnosed with type I and type II diabetes in 2012 with health care costs at an estimated $245 billion. Moving forward, the most effective approach is to empower and educate these patients to self-manage their own disease to decrease or prevent …

Program evaluation is a major focus for the intersection of clinical care and fiscal responsibility. Collection of data over the first year of existence for a new program showed that needs were met for this health system. This data can be used by others to anticipate and gauge productivity and utilization for end of life care in the perinatal arena. Continued data collection is ongoing and shows even further growth of the service.

Students' Perceptions Of Clinical Reasoning Development, Rebecca S. Jensen

Scores on a survey measuring students’ perceptions of clinical reasoning skills were compared across a curriculum and across programs to determine if differences existed. Scores increased significantly from beginning to end of the curriculum; differences between programs, associate (AS) and baccalaureate (BS), were realized; and the survey discriminated among students in three different programs: AS, BS, and registered nurse to BS.

Nursing Student's Clinical Reasoning During Simulation, Rebecca S. Jensen

Statement of problem While debriefing is considered essential for student understanding of the concepts embedded in a simulation, the measurement of clinical reasoning before and after debriefing has been minimally published. Students typically rate their performance as better than ratings by faculty, and the largest disparity is between self and faculty ratings for poorer performing students (Davis et al., 2006). Debriefing may be a method of attenuating students’ self-assessment by explicating their actions and reasoning during the simulation (Dreifuerst, 2012).
Hypotheses
- There will be no difference in student self-ratings and lab personnel ratings of student performance during simulation using the …

End of life is a topic many people would rather avoid discussing. Even many healthcare providers are uncomfortable with the topic, and they are at the front line in terms of providing information to patients about their care options. Nevertheless, it is a topic of utmost importance. Regardless of what one values and what choices have been made, preferences and desires at the end of life should be honored. This was the aim of documents such as advanced directives, living wills, and durable power of attorneys for healthcare, but they have been found to not be consistently honored. Seeing this …
