Quality of Discharge Teaching Scale
The Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale, Quality of Discharge Teaching Scale, and Post-Discharge Coping Difficulty Scale were developed by Dr. Marianne Weiss to measure nurse-sensitive discharge care processes and patient outcomes. Three versions of the scales were developed concurrently for different patient populations – Adult medical-surgical patients, Parents of hospitalized children, and Postpartum Patient mothers (see Weiss & Piacentine, 2006, Weiss et al., 2007, and Bobay et al., 2018 for description of the development and initial testing). Additional scales and information about translation rights are located at Marquette Nursing.

Enhancing Mental Health Support And Reducing Burnout In Nursing: A Holistic Approach, Alexa Miller, Andrea Quintela
Enhancing Mental Health Support And Reducing Burnout In Nursing: A Holistic Approach, Alexa Miller, Andrea Quintela
Nursing | Senior Theses
Urgent action is needed to strengthen mental health support for nurses experiencing burnout. This thesis examines the stigma surrounding burnout in the nursing community and implements holistic approaches to alleviate burnout of those affected. Integrating mental health awareness, mindfulness-based interventions, personal self-care, and supportive hospital practice can decrease nurse burnout. By first coming to terms with nurse turnover and further prioritizing nurses' physiological, emotional, and social welfare, leadership and organization can implement holistic strategies to address these diverse challenges nurses face. Through a deep dive into existing literature, relevant studies, and a blend of critical findings, this thesis emphasizes the …
Nursing Care During Natural Disasters, War Zones, And Mass Casualty Incidents: Implications For An Educational And Professional Overhaul, Erin N. White
Undergraduate Honors Theses
Emergency situations around the world are inevitable. Any nurse who practices for any period of time is sure to encounter situations like these. Their hospital may be flooded with traumatic and severely life-threatening patient cases where supplies can become scarce. In these situations, a nurse and all other healthcare personnel are expected to act effectively, efficiently and in a highly organized way. Despite this need, many hospitals fail to implement effective disaster preparedness programs and plans. This leaves healthcare workers at a loss for how to treat patients, communicate within and outside of the hospital, coordinate transport, and all the …
Home Blood Pressure Monitoring Bundle For Hypertension Outcomes In Adult Patients Receiving Care In Public Health Clinics, Christine Jennifer Victorian
Home Blood Pressure Monitoring Bundle For Hypertension Outcomes In Adult Patients Receiving Care In Public Health Clinics, Christine Jennifer Victorian
Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) Scholarly Projects - Archive
Background: Hypertension (HTN) that is not adequately controlled leads to cardiovascular disease, stroke, and heart disease. It affects 116 million adults (47%) in the United States (U.S.). The HTN compliance rate in a South Texas public health clinic was 64%, below the national benchmark of 76%. Home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) was recommended in a joint statement by the American Heart Association (AHA) and the American Medical Association (AMA). Literature evidence revealed that the HBPM bundle increased BP control (< 140/90 mmHg) compliance.
Methods: A quality improvement (QI) bundle was initiated to address the low HTN compliance rate from a quality management perspective. …
Creation Of A Structured Rapid Response Team And Early Rrt Activation, Elizabeth Amaka Azie
Creation Of A Structured Rapid Response Team And Early Rrt Activation, Elizabeth Amaka Azie
Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) Scholarly Projects - Archive
Cardiac arrest, unanticipated admissions to the intensive care unit (ICU), and mortality account for about 50% of serious inpatient adverse events (Ko et al., 2020). Efforts to prevent in-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) require a system to identify deteriorating patients and include an appropriate interventional response, such as a rapid response team (Andersen et al., 2019). A well-structured rapid response team (RRT) has five categories that include team structure, organizational culture, expertise, communication, and teamwork (Jackson, 2017). A community hospital in Texas has been challenged in its attempts to have a well-structured RRT and had an increase in cardiac arrest. A …

Impact Of A Discharge Bundle On Boarding Hours In Acute Care Hospitals, Monica L. Herrera
Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) Scholarly Projects - Archive
The national epidemic of boarding hours in the emergency departments prompted the implementation of a discharge bundle in an acute care hospital. This bundle included an ADT nurse, discharge orders written prior to 11AM, and EVS shifting employee hours. Initial findings indicated a reduction in boarding time by 126 minutes.

Clinical Practice Guideline For The Management Of Depression In Primary Care, Estrella Catherine Villarreal
Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) Scholarly Projects - Archive
Background: The prevalence of depression poses a significant challenge in primary care, emphasizing the urgent need to address this issue during patient visits. Primary care providers are at the forefront of managing depression, yet they encounter difficulties in screening, diagnosing, assessing, and treating this complex condition. Clinical guidelines serve as valuable tools for primary care providers and practices, offering support in identifying and addressing depression effectively. An evidence-based approach to treating depression in primary care, with a focus on collaborative interventions with behavioral health to enhance depression management for American Indian/Alaskan Native (AI/AN) communities.
Methods: The descriptive analysis was conducted …
