HEALTH CARE OPERATIONS AND QUALITY

Assignment Overview

According to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (2002), “a central goal
of healthcare quality improvement is to maintain what is good about the existing
healthcare system while focusing on the areas that need improvement” (para. 2).
This assignment will familiarize you with the quality improvement (QI) approaches
and models that health care administrators can effectively apply.

SLP Assignment

You are a junior administrator in a hospital. You have been asked by HR to do a
presentation to introduce new administrative hires to quality improvement.

approaches/models of quality improvement discussed in Chapter 1.

discussed. Your presentation should address the following explicitly:

2. Highlight the steps, stages, or processes of the three selected
approaches/models and provide an operational example for each that could be
applicable in a health care clinical or administrative setting.

Discussion

Preparing the Discussion

· Discussions are designed to promote dialogue between faculty and students, and students and their peers. In discussions students:

· Demonstrate understanding of concepts for the week

· Integrate outside scholarly sources when required

· Engage in meaningful dialogue with classmates and/or instructor

· Express opinions clearly and logically, in a professional manner

· Use the rubric on this page as you compose your answers.

· Best Practices include:

· Participation early in the week is encouraged to stimulate meaningful discussion among classmates and instructor.

· Enter the discussion often during the week to read and learn from posts.

· Select different classmates for your reply each week.

Discussion Question

A nurse colleague uses his personal cell phone to take a photo of a patient’s wound and then sends a message with the photo to the primary care provider via a text. Please consider the following in your discussion post:

· What principles of patient confidentiality might be an issue? Consider legal and ethical.

· How might this nurse use a communication device to support safe patient practices?

· What would your organization’s policy on 'personal communication device use in a patient care setting' reveal related to this case? (If your organization does not have a written policy, or you are not currently working in an organization, what do you think should be included in such a policy and why?)
