In addition to allowing medical practitioners to access and record clinical documentation at much faster rates, EHRs are also positively influencing care delivery and nurse-patient interaction. Yet despite the potential benefits of EHRs, their implementation can be a formidable task that has broad-reaching implications for an entire health care organization.In this Discussion, you appraise strategies for obtaining the benefits and overcoming the challenges of implementing and using electronic health records.To prepareReview the implementation of EHRs in an organization. Reflect on the various approaches used.If applicable, consider your own experiences with implementing EHRs. What were some positive aspects of the implementation? What suggestions would you make to improve the process?Reflect on the reactions of others during the implementation process. Were concerns handled effectively?If you have not had any experiences with an EHR implementation, talk to someone who has and get his or her feedback on the experience.Search and indicate examples of effective and poor implementation of EHRs.RESOURCESRequired ReadingsMcGonigle, D., & Mastrian, K.

They also outline the general considerations, benefits, and support measures related to electronic health records.2.Successful Implementation of Electronic Health Information TechnologySince the inception of the HITECH Act, health organizations have faced increased pressure to update their health information technology (HIT) resources. As discussed last week, many believe that the increased use of electronic health records and the quick and efficient communication afforded by HIT can lead to improved quality of patient care. Yet there are significant costs associated with implementing such systems. What can organizations do to ensure that the correct system is selected and that the system will be appropriate for those required to use it? Who should be involved in those decisions?This week introduces the systems development life cycle and discusses how it can guide an organization through the complexities of adopting a new HIT system.In this Discussion, you are asked to consider the role of nurses in the SDLC process.To prepare:Review the steps of the systems development life cycle.Think about your own organization, or one with which you are familiar, and the steps the organization goes through when purchasing and implementing a new HIT system.Consider what a nurse could contribute to decisions made at each stage when planning for new health information technology. What might be the consequences of not involving nurses?Reflect on your own experiences with your organization selecting and implementing new technology. As an end user, do you feel you had any input in the selection or and planning of the new HIT system?RESOURCESRequired ReadingsMcGonigle, D., & Mastrian, K. G. (2015).

Retrieved fromhttp://www.ahrq.gov/legacy/qual/toolkit/index.htmlThis website supplies strategies for reconfiguring and transforming a hospital’s care processes. The text breaks down the redesign process into a series of steps.3.Understanding Workflow DesignAs you explored last week, the implementation of a new technology can dramatically affect the workflow of an organization. Newly implemented technologies can initially limit the productivity of users as they adjust to their new tools. Such implementations tend to be so significant that they often require workflows to be redesigned in order to achieve improvements in safety and patient outcomes. However, before workflows can be redesigned, they must first be analyzed. This analysis includes each step in completing a certain process. Some systems duplicate efforts or contain unnecessary steps that waste time and money and could even jeopardize patient health care. By reviewing and modifying the workflow, you enable greater productivity. This drive to implement new technologies has elevated the demand for nurses who can perform workflow analysis.In this Discussion, you explore resources that have been designed to help guide you through the process of workflow assessment.To prepare:· Take a few minutes and peruse the information found in the article “Workflow Assessment for Health IT Toolkit”.o As you check out the information located on the different tabs, identify key concepts that you could use to improve a workflow in your own organization and consider how you could use them.o Go the Research tab and identify and read one article that is of interest to you and relates to your specialty area.RESOURCESRequired ReadingsMcGonigle, D., & Mastrian, K.

Baltimore, MD: Author.This video provides an overview of how workflow modeling can be used in a health care setting to target areas for revising current practices and procedures. The video also shows how technology and informatics can be used to improve workflow efficiency and increase the quality of care.4.Using Health Information Technology as a Source of Evidence-Based PracticeBefore the digital revolution, health information technology supplied very limited support for evidence-based practice. If nurses wanted to be informed about cutting-edge research, their best bet was to either subscribe to leading journals or make periodic trips to the library. With the establishment of research databases, however, nurses became empowered to learn about and facilitate interdisciplinary and translational research. Databases are just one example of how health information technology supports evidence-based practice.To prepare:· Read the following scenario from the text (McGonigle & Mastrian, 2015, p. 445):Twelve-hour shifts are problematic for patient and nurse safety, and yet hospitals continue to keep the 12-hour shift schedule. In 2004, the Institute of Medicine (Board on Health Care Services & Institute of Medicine, 2004) published a report that referred to studies as early as 1988 that discussed the negative effects of rotating shifts on intervention accuracy. Workers with 12-hour shifts realized more fatigue than workers on 8-hour shifts. In another study done in Turkey by Ilhan, Durukan, Aras, Turkcuoglu, and Aygun (2006), factors relating to increased risk for injury were age of 24 or less, less than 4 years of nursing experience, working in the surgical intensive care units, and working for more than 8 hours.· Consider how the resources identified in the scenario above could influence an organization’s practice.· Select an issue in your practice that is of concern to you. Using health information technology, locate at least three evidence-based practice resources that address your concern and that could possibly inform further action.RESOURCESRequired ReadingsMcGonigle, D., & Mastrian, K. G. (2015).Nursing informatics and the foundation of knowledge(3rd ed.). Burlington, MA: Jones and Bartlett Learning.Chapter 23, “Research: Data      Collection, Processing, and Analytics”The authors of this chapter relate nursing research to the foundation of knowledge model. The chapter assesses informatics tools for collecting data, storing information, and processing and analyzing data.Chapter 25, “Translational      Research: Generating Evidence for Practice”In this chapter, the authors differentiate evidence-based practice and translation research. They also describe models used to introduce research findings intro practice.Hynes, D. M., Weddle, T., Smith, N., Whittier, E., Atkins, D., & Francis, J. (2010).

The following criteria for meaningful use must be evident to qualify for EHR incentives (U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, 2012). The technology must:· Improve quality, safety, and efficiency, and reduce health disparities· Engage patients and families· Improve care coordination· Improve population and public health· Ensure adequate privacy and security protections for personal health informationFor this Discussion, you consider the impact of the meaningful use criteria of the HITECH legislation on the adoption of health information technology.To prepare:· Review the Learning Resources on the HITECH legislation and its primary goals.· Reflect on the positive and negative impact this legislation has had on your organization or one with which you are familiar.· Consider the incentives to encourage the use of EHRs.

Home>Homework Answsers>Nursing homework helpkimInstructionsOutbreak InvestigationOn February 7, 2018, a nurse employed at the Flinn Corporation noticed an increase in the number of employees who were sick. She was concerned that there may be aSalmonellaoutbreak at the company. She has interviewed each of the employees at the corporation. She has taken samples and sent them out for testing but has not received the results. She asks you, the local epidemiologist, to investigate to see if an outbreak exists and if so what the source of the outbreak is. You follow the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s steps in outbreak investigation (https://www.cdc.gov/csels/dsepd/ss1978/lesson6/section1.html) and report your findings to her. Please note that we will not address all outbreak investigation steps in this assignment.Use the attached Excel worksheet to produce graphs and statistics to answer the questions below. Submit your report as aWord doc (PDF file format is not allowed for this final assignment)and include figures and tables you generate. The report should be easy to follow and interpret and should be written as an academic paper in proper APA formatting.1. Look at the Excel Spreadsheet attached. There are 3 worksheets (see tabs on bottom of page – “Nurse’s Interview”, “Epi Curve”, “Retrospective Cohort Study”). The first sheet “Nurse’s Interview” has a line list of employees who work at Flinn Corporation. This sheet represents the data the nurse has collected from those employees in an interview. Do you think that an outbreak exists? Why would you recommend to further investigate? Discuss your reasoning. (Step 2: Establish outbreak)2. Research salmonellosis using academic sources. Are the symptoms that the ill employees exhibit consistent with salmonellosis? Provide a brief summary (1-2 paragraphs) of the disease and discuss the chain of infection for this disease. Use in-text citations in proper APA format and include all sources in your reference section. (Step 3: Verify diagnosis)3. Identify the percentage of ill employees with each symptom. For example, 1 out of 12 ill employees had blood in stool (Bs) = 8.3%. (Step 4: Working case definition)4. Conduct descriptive epidemiology (Step 6). Describe the characteristics of the ill employees to determine trends and risk factors.a. Person – Calculate the percentage of ill employees that are male/female. Determine the mean age of the ill employees.b. Place – What percentage of ill employees ate at the cafeteria? What percentage of well employees ate at the cafeteria?c. Time – Using the data collected in the Nurse’s Interview, fill in the column “# of cases” in the “Epi Curve” worksheet. Use 0 if there are no cases. As you fill in the data, the graph will automatically generate. Choose an appropriate title for the graph. Copy and paste graph into your report. What type of epidemic curve is it ? (Hint: readhttps://www.cdc.gov/csels/dsepd/ss1978/lesson6/section2.html#step6)5. Based on the information you have gathered, you have developed an hypothesis that there is a food being served at the cafeteria that is causing the employees to become ill. You need to further test this hypothesis by conducting a retrospective cohort study (Step 8). Use the worksheet “Retrospective Cohort Study” to calculate attack rates and risk ratios. The first food item Baked Chicken is done for you. You can also consulthttps://www.cdc.gov/csels/dsepd/ss1978/lesson6/section2.html#step8for help. Report the Risk ratio for each food item. Based on risk ratios, which is food is most likely to be the source of the illness? Explain.6. Based on your findings, what would you recommend for prevention and control measures? Apply food safety principles from academic sources to discuss further prevention of Salmonella outbreaks in the cafeteria. (Step 11) Use in-text citations and include sources in reference section.7. Include a properly formatted reference section in APA format that includes at least 3 academic sources (popular sources should not be used).Paper layout Instructions”Title of Your Paper”Introduction.  (You must have this heading)Your paper needs to start with an introductory section and this is where you introduce the paper to the reader.

Home>Homework Answsers>Nursing homework helpThe collection of evidence is an activity that occurs with an endgame in mind. For example, law enforcement professionals collect evidence to support a decision to charge those accused of criminal activity. Similarly, evidence-based healthcare practitioners collect evidence to support decisions in pursuit of specific healthcare outcomes.In this Assignment, you will identify an issue or opportunity for change within your healthcare organization and propose an idea for a change in practice supported by an EBP approach.To Prepare:Reflect on the four peer-reviewed articles you critically appraised in Module 4, related to your clinical topic of interest and PICOT.Reflect on your current healthcare organization and think about potential opportunities for evidence-based change, using your topic of interest and PICOT as the basis for your reflection.Consider the best method of disseminating the results of your presentation to an audience.The Assignment:(Evidence-Based Project)Part 4: Recommending an Evidence-Based Practice ChangeCreate an 8- to 9-slide PowerPoint presentation in which you do the following:Briefly describe your healthcare organization, including its culture and readiness for change. (You may opt to keep various elements of this anonymous, such as your company name.)Describe the current problem or opportunity for change.
