PDSA Practice Improvement Plan PDSA Practice Improvement Plan (Guidelines)

The assignment will be divided into four phases.

This is a research project.This means that students will need to do research and cite their sources on each of the PowerPoint slides PLUS list the sources used in the presentation in a “References” section located at the end of the presentation.

The PDSA project will give the student the experience to initiate and coordinate planned changes in a healthcare organization. This assignment aims to engage the student in analyzing an evidence-based practice scenario within their clinical experiences. 

Students will use the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality’s (2020) Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) Directions and Examples as a guideline for this assignment – Please review the web links posted in your course’s Canvas site

Part I: Plan

Problem IdentificationProblem Identification: Identify a clinical problem you observed at the clinical site.Review policies, procedures, and guidelines of care to assess if there is a standard or policy to improve practice.Talking with patients about their perceptions of the care. Is there a problem, a patient, or a population negatively affected by the present standard of practice?Talk to your preceptor and/or staff at your clinical site to help you identify your problem.Remember to cite  sources on each of the PowerPoint slides PLUS list the sources used in the presentation in a “References” section located at the end of the presentation.Due to HIPAA, you cannot cite patients, friends, or family members.  However, you can cite preceptors or staff with their prior approval.Review of LiteratureReview of literature: What level of knowledge is out there in professional journals to address identified problem? Use professional databases (CINAHL, MEDLINE, and/or PubMed) to research your “identified problem”MDC students can access these professional organizations by logging into their course’s Canvas course and then clicking on the following:MDC ResourcesTutoring and Librarians: Access a Variety of ServicesDatabases and Streaming ServicesResearch Tools & ServicesAcademic Search CompleteEBSCOhostChoose DatabasesCheck and see if there are any evidence-based guidelines already published?Most of the literature reviewed should utilize systematic reviews, meta-analyses, or clinical guidelines. Individual studies review expert opinion articles, and clinical articles can be used as supportive literature for clinical issues with limited research.Each student needs to use a minimum of five (5) research articles on the identified problem using the following professional databases (i.e., CINAHL, MEDLINE, and/or PubMed).I plan to: You will write a concise statement of what you plan to do in your PDSA projectI hope this produces: Here you will put a measurement or outcome that you hope to achieve with your projectPICO(T) QuestionMust use template posted in Canvas titled, “PICOT Question Template.pdf” to develop your PICOT question for this assignmentMust state which template you used (i.e., intervention, therapy, prognosis/prediction, diagnosis, etiology, meaning)Once this “P” factor is determined, a clinical question should be developed using the PICO(T) process.

The Process

Steps to Execute: Write the steps you’re going to take in the PDSA cycle, the population you are working with, and the time limit The population could be a patient, a problem, a population, a unit, a division, or an organization problem. The time limit that you will use in this project —remember, it does not have to be long enough to get your results. The time limit must be within the time you spend at your clinical siteThis means that is you start your clinical hours on September 3rd and end your clinical hours on October 6, your project is limited to the dates/times you were at your clinical site.

Part II: Do

After you have your plan, you will execute it or set it in motion.During this implementation, you will be keen to watch what happens once you do this.What did you observe? Here you will gather data (i.e., numbers) during your implementation.This may include how the patients react, how the nurses react, and how it fits in with your organizational system. You will ask, “Did everything go as planned?” “Did I have to modify the plan?”In this section, each student needs to present data (i.e., numbers)

Part III: Study

After implementation, you will study the results (i.e., data that you gathered).  Must answer the following questions:  What did you learn? Did you meet your measurement goals? Here you will record how well it worked, if you met your goal.

Part IV: Act

What did you conclude from this cycle? You will write what you came away with for this implementation and whether it worked.Moreover, if it did not work, what can you do differently in your next cycle to address that?Is your clinical site ready to implement your PDSA project across your entire practice if it did work?

Dissemination

In this section, you will list the materials that you handed out at your clinical site on the day your presented your project. The required material is the following: Handouts – Must create an original handout that you give to your audience. A copy of the handout must be screenshot and shared on your PowerPoint presentation.Please submit a copy of your handout as a file along with your PowerPoint presentation.

PowerPoint Presentation of PDSA Project

Students will use the PDSA Project – PowerPoint Presentation Template posted in Canvas to present their PDSA project to the preceptor and other team members at the clinical practicum site and for grading in Canvas under Assignments

The presentation should follow all the criteria posted in the PDSA Project – PowerPoint Presentation Template: (Please also review Grading Rubric below before starting assignment)

 a) Download PDSA Project – PowerPoint Presentation Template that is posted in CanvasThis is a guide.It is part of the assignment for each student to create their own PowerPoint slides.The PowerPoint template posted cannot be downloaded and revised. Design a handout to give out on the day of your presentation to your preceptor, unit leadership, and other team members at your practicum site.  The handout must contain all the major headings and a brief summary of each:Title of ProjectProblem IdentifiedPlan: State PICOT questionDo: What did you observe? (Use data to answer this question)Study: What did you learn? Did you meet your measurement goals?Act: What did you conclude from this cycle?Add photos, graphics, tables, etc to your handout to enhance presentation of informationA copy (i.e., screenshot) of the handout must be included in your PowerPoint presentation. Each student will prepare a minimum of 3 discussion questions to pose to their audience and to generate discussion about the project and      potential for implementation.List your discussion questions as an “Appendix” in your PowerPoint presentationPresentation delivery: professional demeanor, professional dress, and generated discussion.  Take a picture of yourself and the staff on the day of the presentation and copy and paste it to your title PowerPoint slide)

Please upload/submit your PDSA PowerPoint presentation in Canvas using the above guidelines by the due date and time.

 TurnItIn

When submitting your assignment in Canvas, please note that your work will be reviewed by TurnItIn for similarities to other published work.  Any work that scores 20% or higher in TurnItIn will receive a grade of 0 points. If your score is 20% or higher, please review to see where your total similarity percentage is coming from.  Then, revise your work and resubmit until your score is less than 20%.

If you have any questions on the guidelines or grading rubric for this assignment, please ask before you start working on the assignment. 

After you turn in your assignment, it is too late to ask for clarifications or to resubmit because you missed required criteria and do not. like your grade.

Outstanding

The PowerPoint presentation is clear and engaging, and

(i.e., 100%) at the top of each slide are consistent (i.e., same size and
centered) as well as the fonts used.
