Having a baby: Is it really all fun and games???

#baby crying

As the text states, having a newborn enter the household can be a trying time, to say the least! Here is an activity/discussion that will help you gain greater insight into both the pressures of the addition of a newborn, as well as effective techniques for dealing with this pressure. This week you will:

  1. Interview at least two parents (they could be your own) concerning the issues that they faced upon the birth of their child(ren). This interview should focus on both the problems encountered and effective solutions that the parents employed to deal with the problems.  Regardless of who you choose to interview, be sure to do each interview individually and privately. Some students do the interview through Facetime or Zoom.
  2. Find an interesting website that deals with a circumstance discussed in one of your interviews and provide the web address.
  3. Share results from these informal interviews by summarizing in the discussion board.
  4. Share the results from your research and tell us what you learned.  Be sure to include the websites you used.  Note:  To add a web page to a discussion thread type the title of the webpage, highlight and click on the paper clip above the text box, and copy the web address in the URL box and click insert link.  
  5. Read your fellow students’ posts and respond to at least 2 students in the class in a meaningful way. For confidentially reasons please never discuss the actual name(s) of the people you interview.   I look forward to reading about your experience!

For this assessment, you will create a 2-4 page report on an interview you have conducted with a health care professional. You will identify an issue from the interview that could be improved with an interdisciplinary approach, and review best practices and evidence to address the issue.

As a baccalaureate-prepared nurse, your participation and leadership in interdisciplinary teams will be vital to the health outcomes for your patients and organization. One way to approach designing an improvement project is to use the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle. The Institute for Healthcare Improvement describes it thus:

The Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle is shorthand for testing a change in the real work setting—by planning it, trying it, observing the results, and acting on what is learned. This is the scientific method adapted for action-oriented learning…Essentially, the PDSA cycle helps you test out change ideas on a smaller scale before evaluating the results and making adjustments before potentially launching into a somewhat larger scale project (n.d.).   

You might also recognize that the PDSA cycle resembles the nursing process. The benefit of gaining experience with this model of project design is that it provides nurses with an opportunity to ideate and lead improvements. For this assessment, you will not be implementing all of the PDSA cycle. Instead, you are being asked to interview a health care professional of your choice to determine what kind of interdisciplinary problem he or she is experiencing or has experienced in the workplace. This interview, in Assessment 2, will inform the research that you will conduct to propose a plan for interdisciplinary collaboration in Assessment 3.

Professional Context

This assessment will introduce the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) Model to create change in an organization. By interviewing a colleague of your choice, you will begin gathering information about an interprofessional collaboration problem that your colleague is experiencing or has experienced. You will identify a change theory and leadership strategies to help solve this problem.

Scenario

This assessment is the first of three related assessments in which you will gather interview information (Assessment 2); design a proposal for interdisciplinary problem-solving, (Assessment 3); and report on how an interdisciplinary improvement plan could be implemented in a place of practice (Assessment 4). At the end of the course, your interviewee will have a proposal plan based on the PDSA cycle that he or she could present to stakeholders to address an interdisciplinary problem in the workplace.

For this assessment, you will need to interview a health care professional such as a fellow learner, nursing colleague, administrator, business partner, or another appropriate person who could provide you with sufficient information regarding an organizational problem that he or she is experiencing or has experienced, or an area where they are seeking improvements. Consult the Interview Guide (attached) for an outline of how to prepare and the types of information you will need to complete this project successfully.

Remember: this is just the first in a series of three assessments.

Instructions

For this assessment, you will report on the information that you collected in your interview, analyzing the interview data and identifying a past or current issue that would benefit from an interdisciplinary approach. This could be an issue that has not been addressed by an interdisciplinary approach or one that could benefit from improvements related to the interdisciplinary approach currently being used. Additionally, you will start laying the foundation for your Interdisciplinary Plan Proposal (Assessment 3) by researching potential change theories, leadership strategies, and collaboration approaches that could be relevant to issue you have identified.

When submitting your plan, use the Interview and Issue Identification Template (attached), which will help you to stay organized and concise. As you complete the template, make sure you use APA format for in-text citations for the evidence and best practices that are informing your plan, as well as for the reference list at the end.

Additionally, be sure to address the following, which corresponds to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. Please study the scoring guide carefully so you understand what is needed for a distinguished score.

· Summarize an interview focused on past or current issues at a health care organization.

· Identify an issue from an interview for which an evidence-based interdisciplinary approach would be appropriate.

Part 3 19379011

  

Telehealth refers to the provision of medical care to affected individuals through an online platform. Here, a medical practitioner uses telecommunication facilities to offer services to patients. Telehealth is achieved in both patient, and the practitioner must be connected to excellent telecommunication facilities to ensure that communication is expertly made the information provided in part one of the assignment outline how inequalities in the health sector exist. For instance, people from a specific gender or race may suffer from a particular illness or infection, and this may consider discrimination has given their living conditions and status. An excellent example in this scenario is where kids within slum areas suffer from diarrhea and other waterborne illnesses due to them living in poor sanitary conditions. Telehealth, therefore, aims at bridging this gap and promote equity even in the health world. This way, an expert can offer his/her services through telehealth to the affected and under-privileged populations. 

My telehealth effort will entail the use of websites and social media sites to provide people with health advice and services. The creation of a professional website will be essential to achieve functional telehealth. The website will contain information about my practice, the areas I specialize in, and the services I offer. It will also provide a message, call, and email icons, which will allow individuals to contact me for medical services directly. Since many people are connected to the internet, they can utilize the internet to access the website and, thus, acquire health services comfortably without having to travel to distant places while seeking medication. Social media sites and SMS functions will also be utilized in my telehealth efforts. They will be done to cater for the rural and poor populations that cannot access the internet and the website. Through providing a toll-free SMS number, patients will be able to send messages about their concerns, and this will allow me to provide sound advice to them. This way, my telehealth services will be provided to a larger population (including the rich and the sick individuals). They will also allow me to offer quality telehealth services. 

To determine if the information presented was understood, the telehealth information will provide in straightforward terms that can be easily understood by ordinary individuals. They will include breaking down medical conditions into simple language that can be understood by non-medical individuals. The information will also provide to a client, and he/she will be requested to state whether he/she understood the whole information well. They will also be asked to state their concerns (either through the mail, messages, or phone calls) and questions, which will then addressed accordingly. Where possible (for instance, on the website), graphic images will be used in passing out information. They will enhance understanding because visual signs can be interpreted well alongside wordings and explanations. In offering telehealth services, the practitioner will continue to work closely with the clients throughout the medical plan. They will enhance a better understanding of information and, where clarity is required, the practitioner will be able to provide sound advice. Feedback from the clients about the services offered will also note. They will allow telehealth service providers to gauge whether the information provided was or was not understood. From this feedback, improvements will be made 

 Various resources will be needed while offering telehealth services. First, a working office will be required. Although providing services through telecommunication facilities, a practitioner will require a physical office to operate well and have all his/her equipment stored safely (away from dust, damage, and theft scenarios). Technological resources required include phones, computers, carts, power backups, and internet services, and software (the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, 2019). They will allow a practitioner to set up a functional telehealth facility and also offer services even during power shortages (as there will be power backups such as generators). Functioning internet service is necessary to promote service provisioning in an online platform. Telehealth services will be accessed by various individuals (people of a different race, ethnicity, and countries), interpreters will be required to ensure that the telehealth service doesn’t cause further discrimination due to communication barriers. Where possible, translators will also be employed, and this will ease the provision of services. 

Since I will not be face to face with the clients, I will make up by first providing them with quality services, which will fill the gap of not meeting face to face. The provision of quality care will ensure that clients gain excellent services for their time spent in the telehealth platforms. I will also set up Skype and video call accounts that will at least provide clients with a face to face feeling during consultations (Goodridge&Marciniuk, 2016). This service, however, will be provided for urgent cases that can’t be solved by explanations through mails and messages. For instance, when a client fails to understand what is required of them, video calls and Skype will allow for demonstrations, which will then enhance understanding. 

In conclusion, telehealth is an essential concept in the field of medicine, and it allows practitioners to provide quality medical services to their clients. Since telemedicine is done on an online platform, some of the resources required include phones, computers, internet services, power backups, and a functional working office to handle all these equipment. It is important to provide simple and understandable information to clients to ensure that they follow instructions and administer medication as required. Without clarity, telehealth wouldn’t be of much help. Feedback from clients should be taken seriously as this will allow practitioners to gauge whether the services being offered are quality, and the clients also understand the information given. To fill the void of not having face to face interactions with clients, practitioners can, once in a while, hold video calls with clients, especially during pressing cases. 

You will do a presentation to the class on your telehealth effort. This presentation will be at least 10 minutes and not more than 15 minutes. You should provide the information from part 2 along with a short demonstration of your telehealth effort.

For this assessment you will create an 8-12 slide PowerPoint presentation for one or more stakeholder or leadership groups to generate interest and buy-in for the plan proposal you developed for the third assessment.

As a current or future nurse leader, you may be called upon to present to stakeholders and leadership about projects that you have been involved in or wish to implement. The ability to communicate a plan—and potential implications of not pursuing such a plan—to stakeholders effectively can be critically important in creating awareness and buy-in, as well as building your personal and professional brand in your organization. It is equally important that you know how to create compelling presentations for others’ delivery and ensure that they convey the same content you would deliver if you were the presenter.

Demonstration of Proficiency

· Competency 1: Explain strategies for managing human and financial resources to promote organizational health. 

o Explain how the interdisciplinary plan could be implemented and how the human and financial resources would be managed.

· Competency 2: Explain how interdisciplinary collaboration can be used to achieve desired patient and systems outcomes. 

o Explain an organizational or patient issue for which a collaborative interdisciplinary team approach would help achieve a specific improvement goal.

· Competency 3: Describe ways to incorporate evidence-based practice within an interdisciplinary team. 

o Summarize an evidence-based interdisciplinary plan to address an organizational or patient issue.

· Propose evidence-based criteria that could be used to evaluate the degree to which the project was successful in achieving the improvement goal. 

o Competency 5: Apply professional, scholarly, evidence-based communication strategies to impact patient, interdisciplinary team, and systems outcomes.

· Communicate the PowerPoint presentation of the interdisciplinary improvement plan to stakeholders in a professional, respectful manner, with writing that is clear, logically organized, with correct grammar and spelling, using current APA style.

Professional Context

This assessment will provide you with an opportunity to sharpen your ability to create a professional presentation to stakeholders. In this presentation, you will explain the Plan-Do-Study-Act cycle and how it can be used to introduce the plan (P), implement the plan (D), study the effectiveness of the plan (S), and act on what is learned (A) to drive continuous improvement. By using this cycle, the stakeholders will have a tool and a proposal to expand on these ideas to drive workplace change and create improved processes to solve an interprofessional collaboration problem.

Scenario

In addition to summarizing the key points of Assessments 2 and 3, you will provide stakeholders and/or leadership with an overview of project specifics as well as how success would be evaluated—you will essentially be presenting a discussion of the Plan, Do, and Study parts of the PDSA cycle. Again, you will not be expected to execute the project, so you will not have any results to study. However, by carefully examining the ways in which your plan could be carried out and evaluated, you will get some of the experience of the thinking required for PDSA. 

When creating your PowerPoint for this assessment, it is important to keep in mind the target audience: your interviewee’s organizational leadership. The overall goal of this assessment is to create a presentation that your interviewee could potentially give in his or her organization.

Instructions

Please follow the Guidelines for Effective Powerpoint Presentations (attached). Be sure that your plan addresses the following, which corresponds to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. Please study the scoring guide carefully so you understand what is needed for a distinguished score.

· Explain an organizational or patient issue for which a collaborative interdisciplinary team approach would help achieve a specific improvement goal.

· Summarize an evidence-based interdisciplinary plan to address an organizational or patient issue.

· Explain how the interdisciplinary plan could be implemented and how the human and financial resources would be managed.

· Propose evidence-based criteria that could be used to evaluate the degree to which the project was successful in achieving the improvement goal.

· Communicate the PowerPoint presentation of the interdisciplinary improvement plan to stakeholders in a professional manner, with writing that is clear, logically organized, and respectful with correct grammar and spelling using current APA style.

There are various ways to structure your presentation; following is one example:

· Part 1: Organizational or Patient Issue. 

o What is the issue that you are trying to solve or improve?

o Why should the audience care about solving it?

· Part 2: Relevance of an Interdisciplinary Team Approach. 

o Why is using an interdisciplinary team relevant, or the best approach, to addressing the issue?

o How will it help to achieve improved outcomes or reach a goal?

· Part 3: Interdisciplinary Plan Summary. 

o What is the objective?

o How likely is it to work?

o What will the interdisciplinary team do?

· Part 4: Implementation and Resource Management. 

o How could the plan be implemented to ensure effective use of resources?

o How could the plan be managed to ensure that resources were not wasted?

o How does the plan justify the resource expenditure?

· Part 5: Evaluation. 

o What would a successful outcome of the project look like?

o What are the criteria that could be used to measure that success? 

o How could this be used to show the degree of success?

Again, keep in mind that your audience for this presentation is a specific group (or groups) at your interviewee’s organization and tailor your language and messaging accordingly. Remember, also, that another person will ultimately be giving the presentation. Include thorough speaker’s notes that flesh out the bullet points on each slide.

Additional Requirements

· Number of slides: Plan on using one or two slides for each part of your presentation as needed, so the content of your presentation will be 8–12 slides in length. Remember that slides should contain concise talking points, and you will use presenter’s notes to go into detail. Be sure to include a reference slide as the last slide of your presentation.

· Number of references: Cite a minimum of 3 sources of scholarly or professional evidence that support your central ideas. Resources should be no more than five years old. 

· APA formatting: Make sure that in-text citations on your slides and in your notes pages and reference slide reflect current APA Style and Format.
