To-Do List Module 4

Module 4 Description

In this module you will complete your assignment on Evaluation of a Team’s Simulation Experience using a slide presentation which includes the use of the DASH Debriefing Evaluation tool. You will also explore the use of inter-professional training and how simulation training can take place at the point of nursing care rather than in a simulation center.

Module 4 Objectives

  1. Evaluate a video of a simulation experience.
  2. Critique a simulation evaluation tool found in the literature.
  3. Recognize the importance of both in-situ and inter-professional education as they relate to simulation.

Assigned readings: (Jeffries, 2012) Chapter 8, 10 and 11 Think about it: Why do an evaluation? What questions will the evaluation process answer?

 Final thoughts!

 By now you should have most of your Design of a Simulation Experience filled in as a rough draft as you have used the information that you have gathered during each Module.  Now it is time to put the finishing touches on your presentation.  You are the educator, so use the skills you have learned to present your Design of a Simulation Experience PowerPoint as if you were presenting to a live audience. Remember no more than 6 lines and 6 words per line. Place the discussion of your scenario in the “notes” section of the slides.

 

Would you consider using this tool for your simulation design?  Discuss how well it would or would not evaluate your type of learners?

Choosing an Evaluation Tool

INACSL Standards of Best Practice Evaluation has excellent resources in the reference section that has researched and reviewed the evaluation tools used in simulation.

  1. Choose a simulation evaluation tool from the literature.

Briefly critique the following aspects of the simulation evaluation tool:

  • Who developed it?
  • Why was it developed?
  • Who was it developed for?
  • What the tool evaluates/measures?
  • How it is scored (legend)
  • Brief reliability and validity data on the tool
  • Advantages
    • Is it easy-to-use?
    • Can it be used with multiple populations?
  • Disadvantages
    • Is it complicated?
    • Can it be used with only one population?
  1. Would you consider using this tool for your simulation design?  Discuss how well it would or would not evaluate your type of learners?

 

Discuss ethical issues in transcultural health care with which staff might be confronted in various work settings

Discuss ethical issues in transcultural health care with which staff might be confronted in various work settings (inpatient, clinic, hospice).

Write a 4-5 page evidence-based proposal to support the need for a nurse informaticist in an organization who would focus on improving health care outcomes

/in /by

Nurses at the baccalaureate level in all practice areas are involved in nursing informatics through interaction with information management and patient care technologies. Nurses must not only demonstrate knowledge of and skills in health information and patient care technologies, but also how to use these tools at the bedside and organizational levels. Moreover, nurses need to recognize how information gathered from various health information sources can impact decision making at the national and state regulatory levels.

Prepare a 2-page interprofessional staff update on HIPAA and appropriate social media use in health care.

Prepare a 2-page interprofessional staff update on HIPAA and appropriate social media use in health care.

As you begin to consider the assessment, it would be an excellent choice to complete the Breach of Protected Health Information (PHI) activity. The will support your success with the assessment by creating the opportunity for you to test your knowledge of potential privacy, security, and confidentiality violations of protected health information. The activity is not graded and counts towards course engagement.

Health professionals today are increasingly accountable for the use of protected health information (PHI). Various government and regulatory agencies promote and support privacy and security through a variety of activities. Examples include:

Meaningful use of electronic health records (EHR).
Provision of EHR incentive programs through Medicare and Medicaid.
Enforcement of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) rules.
Release of educational resources and tools to help providers and hospitals address privacy, security, and confidentiality risks in their practices.

Describe 2-3 interventions that can be used to improve the problem.

Conduct in-depth analysis of a pertinent topic related to aging. Include the following in your analysis:
• Define the problem.
• Identify the specific population affected.
• Describe cultural implications.
• Describe financial/legal/ethical implications for the population related to the problem.
• Describe 2-3 interventions that can be used to improve the problem.
• Describe resources available to improve the problem.
• Describe costs associated with the interventions identified.
• Discussed sustainability of the interventions.
Support your responses with examples.
some suggestions are fixed income, loss of partners, family or friends, increased chronic illness costs, Medicare and insurance issues, ageism and age discrimination, etc. It would be best to refrain from researching a specific illness.

How could you contribute to an interprofessional team and patient outcomes through nursing actions of: compassion, advocacy, resilience, and evidence-based practice?

/in /by

View a short tutorial with tips for completing this assignment: iCARE Paper Tutorial (Links to an external site.)
Getting Started: Interprofessional teams are part of practice trends we see developing in all aspects of care delivery. Consider you own work environment (or recent clinical setting).
For this assignment, consider the concept of interprofessional teamwork and patient outcomes.
Look to your current workplace as an example. (If you are not currently employed, look to a past workplace or clinical practice area.)
Apply the components of the iCARE concept to interprofessional teams in a short paper. (Body of the paper to be 3 pages, excluding the title page and references page)
iCARE components are:
C ompassion
A dvocacy
R esilience
E vidence-Based Practice (EBP)
How could you contribute to an interprofessional team and patient outcomes through nursing actions of: compassion, advocacy, resilience, and evidence-based practice?
Select one scholarly nursing article from CINAHL as a resource for your paper.
Additional scholarly sources can be used but are optional.
When searching in the CINAHL database, please limit your search word to one component of the paper you wish to emphasize, such as ‘Resilience’. Searching for the term iCARE will not produce the results you need.
Elements of iCARE paper
Title page
Below are the headings to be used for this assignment.
Introduction: (No heading needed here in APA) Explain the type of work setting you are discussing and whether interprofessional teams are currently present. If interprofessional teams are present, indicate a team function that could be improved. If interprofessional teams are NOT present, indicate what type of team you think might be possible in the setting.
Describe a nursing action item for each component below that could contribute to: interprofessional team support; how this might impact the culture of your unit or organization; and possible impact on patient outcomes.
Compassion
Advocacy
Resilience
Evidence-Based Practice
Summary: Include a summary statement of how iCARE components can support interprofessional teams and patient outcomes. Address how you may be able to influence this process of support for interprofessional teams overall in your unit or organization.
References: List any references used in APA format.
