Change Implementation And Management Plan

Change Implementation And Management Plan

It is one of the most cliché of clichés, but it nevertheless rings true: The only constant is change. As a nursing professional, you are no doubt aware that success in the healthcare field requires the ability to adapt to change, as the pace of change in healthcare may be without rival.

As a professional, you will be called upon to share expertise, inform, educate, and advocate. Your efforts in these areas can help lead others through change. In this Assignment, you will propose a change within your organization and present a comprehensive plan to implement the change you propose.

To Prepare:

  • Review the Resources and identify one change that you      believe is called for in your organization/workplace.
    • This may be a change       necessary to effectively address one or more of the issues you addressed       in the Workplace Environment Assessment you submitted in Module 4.
    • It may also be a change in       response to something not addressed in your previous efforts. It may be       beneficial to discuss your ideas with your organizational leadership       and/or colleagues to help identify and vet these ideas.
  • Reflect on how you might implement this change and how      you might communicate this change to organizational leadership.

The Assignment (5-6-minute narrated PowerPoint presentation):

Change Implementation and Management Plan

Create a narrated PowerPoint presentation of 5 or 6 slides with video that presents a comprehensive plan to implement the change you propose.

Your narrated presentation should be 5–6 minutes in length.

Your Change Implementation and Management Plan should include the following:

  • An executive summary of the issues that are currently      affecting your organization/workplace (This can include the work you      completed in your Workplace Environment Assessment previously submitted,      if relevant.)
  • A description of the change being proposed
  • Justifications for the change, including why addressing      it will have a positive impact on your organization/workplace
  • Details about the type and scope of the proposed change
  • Identification of the stakeholders impacted by the      change
  • Identification of a change management team (by      title/role)
  • A plan for communicating the change you propose
  • A description of risk mitigation plans you would      recommend to address the risks anticipated by the change you propose

immunizations and health disparities

/in /by

I have chosen an article about  immunizations and health disparities as our final ethical discussion  board.  This is the link to the article:  http://www.historyofvaccines.org/content/articles/ethical-issues-and-vaccines

This is full of ethical concerns, and I do not want to limit you, so  please choose something from the article to discuss, identify an  appropriate provision from the nursing code of ethics, and what you  think should or could be done to address it.  I think this topic has  many personal opinions to it, and you can mention these because the  public can have the same and naming helps us figure out how to address  those concerns.  Please remember to cite both the article and the book.

  • Conclusion (reflect on the assignment including how you will use the scope of practice to support your role)
  • Use at least two credible resources to support your findings. For example, one of the resources could be the State Board of Nursing website, and another resource could be a textbook.

Student Voices

A S NURSING becomes more complex, nurses are expected to have the most up-to-date knowledge

and clinical skills for providing the best patient-centered care possible. Patients also expect nurses to be compassionate and to communicate effectively. In today’s healthcare environment, due to heavy work- loads and the continual integra- tion of technology into the nursing profession, the art of nursing seems to be slowly diminishing because nurses have less time to practice it.1 This article is intended to help nursing students understand why nursing is both an art and a science and discusses how to best balance the two.

Care, compassion, and communication The art of nursing refers to the highly valued qualities of care, compassion, and communication— three core principles guiding nursing practice.2 These principles encompass all aspects of patient care, including biopsychosocial needs, cultural preferences, and spiritual needs.

Blending The Art And The Science Of Nursing

One case study examined how patients in an inpatient hospital setting perceived compassion in nursing care.3 The authors con- firmed nursing care should focus on treating the patient with dignity, humanity, and respect. This includes demonstrating a caring attitude and treating patients as individuals. Nurses should practice effective communication (verbal and nonverbal) by actively listening to their patients’ needs, wants, and

concerns and responding to them directly. Nurses should be empathic and ask themselves, “How would I feel in my patient’s shoes?” Practic- ing the three C’s (care, compassion, and communication) promotes trust and increases overall patient satisfaction.3

Although all healthcare employees should be incorporating these quali- ties in the care of patients, it is espe- cially important for nurses because they are involved in direct patient care 24 hours a day. A patient’s hospi- tal experience depends primarily on the nurses he or she encounters. Patients are out of their element, in an unfamiliar environment, and do not know what to expect. As nurses, our responsibility is to provide emotional support as well as physical care.

The qualities of care, compas- sion, and communication can be challenging to teach, and their effectiveness is sometimes dif- ficult to measure. However, these qualities are often learned early in life through observation, life experience, demonstration, and role modeling, and they drive many people to pursue a nursing career. In addition, many nursing programs offer communication courses that incorporate the basic concepts of the art of nursing into the curriculum, and therapeutic communication is a test subject on the NCLEX-RN.4 In practice, utiliz- ing the core nursing principles of
