QI Action Plan
Weekly Objective 2 is addressed in this assignment.
While the “QI Report of Project: Written” is a group assignment, complete the work required to post to this discussion individually. Outside of this discussion forum, collaborate with your group to (1) discuss what each of you completed here, (2) share the various feedback you received from your peers and instructors, and (3) come to an agreement on how you will proceed and present this in your final written project. For example, the “QI Report of Project: Written” requires that your group include indicators. Here, in this discussion forum, everyone comes up with their indicators individually. Then, outside of this forum, your group must come to an agreement on how you write and present indicators in your final report based on the individual work completed and feedback received in this forum.
Instructions
This is an individual assignment. Using your group’s assigned case study, create the action plan components of your QI project using the Indicator Worksheet.* After your fishbone diagram (i.e., cause-effect diagram) is created, you will identify items to be changed. List these as steps or key pieces that your clinical practice guideline or systematic review suggests be in place to improve outcomes (i.e., indicators) in the process or indicator column. In the what data will be collected column, identify how you will measure the change (e.g., audit, documentation in system, etc.). Under plan for improvement, take out each indicator and create a plan by identifying (1) what the indicator is, (2) why it is key for improving outcomes, (3) operational definition, (4) numerator/denominator for ratio/percentage, (6) data collection method, and (7) goal for indicator (this is not the outcome; it is specific to indicator, a benchmark; for example, 100% compliance).
