Assignment Objectives
Develop a plan to implement a change in nursing practice in a clinical setting and assess the impact of the change for stakeholders.
Reading Assignment
Leadership and Management for Nurses: Core Competencies for Quality Care: Chapters 3, 4, 8, 12, 13, 14, & 20
Written communication in nursing incorporates the use of evidence or research published in the literature from scholarly references. Scholarly references are defined as work that is peer-reviewed and published in a professional journal. Using published research to support the viewpoint of nursing, especially in cases being made for change, will enhance the argument.
An annotated bibliography is a list of resources you anticipate using to support your argument. Developing an annotated bibliography will help you organize your research. To create a purposeful annotated bibliography, the following information should be included: the specific citation, a brief summary or paragraph about the article, and how it pertains to your research question.
Assignment Details
This is a 3-step project:
1-Identify a change.
2-Find 6 articles.
3-Write an annotated bibliography for each article.
Please read the detailed instructions below carefully.
Step 1: Write 3–4 sentences answering the following questions:
Identify and describe a recent change that occurred in your workplace. It could be a change in the levels of staffing; a change in policy, such as time off or tuition reimbursement; a change in use of equipment or supplies; a change in charting or computerized medical records; and so on.
Describe the change in 4 sentences.
1 of the sentences should address the rationale for the change.
Step 2: Begin researching scholarly articles from the library from the past 5 years that are related to the change issue identified in Step 1.
Complete a 6-column table of the references you found, including the following:
Author(s) last name, first initial.
(Year).
-Title of article.
-Title of Publication,
-Volume #(Issue #),
-Pages of the article.
A minimum of 6 scholarly references are needed to complete this assignment; you may find more.
EXAMPLE
Change Issue: Low Census Staffing Policy
Currently, when the patient census is low, staff go home based on tenure; the same staff are continually going home, resulting in a lower paycheck for these nurses. The proposed change is to rotate all staff to leave when the census is low, regardless of tenure, so the burden of potentially lower pay is shared among the entire staff and not the same few.
