Practice Change Simulation

Create a 7-9 min powerpoint presentation that reflects upon the clinical problem that you have identified in your area of nursing practice (as identified in Module 1)-see below. 

-Critically appraise the research and summarize the knowledge available on the clinical problem (minimum requirement of 6 scholarly journal articles reviewed and appraised for application to practice problem). 

-Outline a strategic plan for implementation of a practice change in your clinical practice environment based upon your findings. 

-Describe how you intend to operationalize the practice change in your practice environment. 

-What theoretical model will you use and how will you overcome barriers to implementation? 

-What sources of internal evidence will you use in providing data to demonstrate improvement in outcomes? 

-Describe evaluation methods of implementation clearly. 

-Are there any ethical considerations?

 

The presentation should be a simulation of what you would present to your unit staff in an effort to gain buy-in as you initiate the practice change in your area of practice (area of practice- med-surg unit).
