Assignment Description:
Practice Change Simulation
A practice change simulation is a learning tool that allows healthcare professionals to practice implementing changes in a simulated environment. This can help them to gain experience in the process of implementing changes and to develop the skills and knowledge needed to successfully lead and manage change in a real-world setting.
There are several steps involved in a practice change simulation:
Identify the change that needs to be implemented. This may involve analyzing data or conducting a needs assessment to identify areas for improvement in practice.
Develop a plan for implementing the change. This may involve identifying the resources and support needed to implement the change, setting goals and objectives, and establishing a timeline for implementation.
Practice implementing the change in a simulated environment. This may involve role-playing, using simulation software, or working with mock patients or clients.
Reflect on the experience. This may involve debriefing with a mentor or supervisor, discussing the experience with colleagues, or completing a self-assessment to identify areas for improvement.
A practice change simulation can be a valuable learning tool for healthcare professionals, helping them to develop the skills and knowledge needed to successfully lead and manage change in a real-world setting.
Assignment Description:
Practice Change Simulation
Create a 7-9 minute video that reflects upon the clinical problem that you have identified in your area of nursing practice (as identified in Module 1). 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 Assessment 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. Use a recording platform of your choice and either upload as an mp4 or share the link directly to the video in the dropbox. ***Please do not record as voice-over PowerPoint because this cannot be saved in mp4 format or a link.*** If you submit your assignment as a PowerPoint with voice over recording you will not receive credit for your assignment (or partial credit as you did not meet the full requirements of the assignment.)
If PowerPoint is used for the presentation, include the reference slide; if PowerPoint is not used in the presentation, please submit a list of the references in a Word document utilized to develop the presentation in APA format to the dropbox in a separate submission (be sure to orally cite your sources if no PowerPoint is used to identify the sources)
