Therefore, you must complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented.By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:Your application of the PICOT approach to developing your problem statement and the research that you conducted and synthesized in your literature review are the foundation and framework that you will need to successfully build your intervention plan. This plan will lay out specific components of the intervention you are planning to address the need you have identified for the target population and setting. You will justify your approach to the intervention plan by integrating appropriate theoretical foundations. You will also analyze and address the needs of stakeholders, requirements of regulatory bodies, and ethical and legal considerations. It is important to have a sound intervention plan design in place before trying to work on the details of implementation and evaluation.Competency 1: Lead organizational change to improve the experience of care, population health, and professional work life while decreasing cost of care.Explain the impact of cultural needs and characteristics of a target population and setting on the development of intervention plan components.Competency 2: Evaluate the best available evidence for use in clinical and organizational decision making.Evaluate theoretical nursing models, strategies from other disciplines, and health care technologies relevant to an intervention plan.Analyze the impact of stakeholder needs, health care policy, regulations, and governing bodies relevant to health care practice and specific components of an intervention plan.Competency 3: Apply quality improvement methods to impact patient, population, and systems outcomes.Define the major components of an intervention plan for a health promotion, quality improvement, prevention, education, or management need.Competency 4: Design patient- and population-centered care to improve health outcomes.Explain the impact of cultural needs and characteristics of a target population and setting on the development of intervention plan components.Competency 6: Evaluate the ability of existing and emerging information, communication, and health care technologies to improve safety and quality and to decrease cost.Justify the major components of an intervention by referencing relevant and contemporary evidence from the literature and best practices.Competency 7: Defend health policy that improves the experience of care, population health, and professional work life while decreasing cost of care.Analyze relevant ethical and legal issues related to health care practice, organizational change, and specific components of an intervention plan.Note: You will also be assessed on two additional criteria unaligned to a course competency:Communicate intervention plan in a professional way that helps the audience to understand the proposed intervention and the implications of the plan that must be taken into account.Demonstrate completion of hours toward the practicum experience.See the scoring guide for specific grading criteria related to these additional requirements.InstructionsNote: The assessments in this course are sequenced in such a way as to help you build specific skills that you will use throughout your program.
