Week 3 Assignment (NUR 590 Evidence-Based Practice Project Assignments)

Evidence-Based Practice Proposal – Section C: Solution Description

Write a paper of 500-750 words for your proposed evidence-based practice project solution. Address the following criteria:

Proposed Solution: (a) Describe the proposed solution (or intervention) for the problem and the way(s) in which it is consistent with current evidence. Heavily reference and provide substantial evidence for your solution or intervention. (b) Consider if the intervention may be unrealistic in your setting, if it may be too costly, or if there is a lack of appropriate training available to deliver the intervention. If the intervention is unrealistic, you may need to go back and make changes to your problem statement before continuing.

Organization Culture: Explain the way(s) in which the proposed solution is consistent with the organization or community culture and resources.

Expected Outcomes: Explain the expected outcomes of the project. The outcomes should flow from the problem statement.

Method to Achieve Outcomes: Develop an outline of how the outcomes will be achieved. List any specific barriers that will need to be assessed and eliminated. Make sure to mention any assumptions or limitations that may need to be addressed.

Outcome Impact: Describe the impact the outcomes will have on one or all of the following indicators: quality care improvement, patient-centered quality care, efficiency of processes, environmental changes, or professional expertise.

You are required to cite three to five sources to complete this assignment. Sources must be published within the last 5 years and appropriate for the assignment criteria and nursing content.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

Evidence-Based Practice Proposal – Solution Description

Introduction

Evidence-based practice is a system of medicine in which the practitioner relies on scientific data to make clinical decisions. When you perfect the proposal, you can eventually write full essays for each section of this project.

Identifying the Problem

The first step in the process is to identify the problem. In order for this to happen, you must understand what your patient is experiencing and why it’s happening. The problem may not be just a symptom, but instead a set of symptoms that are linked together by an underlying cause. For example:

• A patient has been diagnosed with high blood pressure; however they also have insomnia and depression which could cause their BP levels to increase even more over time than they would naturally.* They have no known medical condition (which would explain why they’re having such difficulty sleeping), so we need look at their environment as well!

Formulation of Problem

The problem is that the evidence-based practice proposal template is not working for you. You need to know why it’s not working and what you can do about it.

Solution Description

The solution you create should be easy for the reader to understand and follow. It should include all the steps necessary to complete your proposed solution, as well as any resources needed in order to accomplish it.

For example, if you’re trying out a new nutrition program for your employees at work, then your proposal might look something like this:

• Problem Identification: Your employees aren’t eating enough fruits and vegetables each day because of their busy schedules—they don’t have time!

• Solution Description: We’ll implement an employee wellness program that encourages them to eat healthier foods by offering incentives such as cash bonuses or discounts on office supplies (if they meet certain goals). This will encourage healthy eating habits among employees who otherwise wouldn’t bother doing so themselves!

Project Timeline

The timeline should be flexible and realistic. The timeline should be based on the evidence, project goals, and other considerations that make sense to you as an individual practitioner.

If your practice is new or small, you may have more time than if it has been around for awhile; however, even then there are still some things that need to be done at certain times in order to keep up with clients’ needs. For example:

• You cannot run errands during office hours because those appointments will take longer than usual if there is no one else available for them (or someone needs help setting up their appointment).

• If people come into your office complaining about something unrelated but still need help getting through insurance paperwork or filing claims after their accident/injury/etc., then these tasks might take longer than expected too as well – especially if they’re upset about being treated poorly by someone else who works nearby!

The Summary takes medical evidence and makes it understandable.

The Summary takes medical evidence and makes it understandable.

The Summary is a summary of the evidence that supports the solution. It allows you to see how your project fits into a bigger picture and how it fits with other projects in your field, as well as what other people have done before you.

The Summary is also a brief overview of both your problem statement and solution description. It’s important for people who aren’t familiar with evidence-based practice (EBP) to understand how this approach differs from traditional methods like case studies or clinical trials; they need all these things explained clearly so they can make an informed decision about whether EBP is right for them!

Finally, if you’re presenting at an academic conference or teaching job interview then having this document ready might help convince potential employers that “yes we do use EBP here at XYZ University.”

Conclusion

The Solution is a great way to learn and apply the skills that you’ll need for a career in Evidence-Based Practice. The Solution can be used in any training program, from high school students who want to become nurses or health practitioners, to professionals seeking advanced degrees in medicine.
