Apply one of the Quality Improvement Models discussed in the course, or choose an approach from the literature, or the one used in your workplace to analyze the case.
Summarize the case in one paragraph, highlighting the role of HIT.
Describe briefly the model chosen for the analysis.
Provide a rationale for using the selected model over other options.
Follow the model steps and processes to identify the quality, safety, security, privacy, and unintended consequences issues in the case.
List interprofessional team members who may be consulted on this process and their expected role.
Design strategies for your workplace to mitigate the issues identified from the case. 
Provide at least one visual of the process and proposed changes (i.e., flow chart, process map, data quality, pareto chart, control chart, data visualization).
Identify changes if needed to policies, EHR, equipment, and other HIT applications.
Create a communication/transition plan.
Develop a staff education plan on changes.
What change theory would be best for this program?
What educational deliver method (s) would be most effective? 
Compose metrics for evaluating the plan in each of the learning domains:
Cognitive
Psychomotor
Effective
Reflect on the ramifications of criminalizing the nonintentional reporting of mistakes on your own advanced practice, the nursing profession, and Quality Improvement practices. 
Submit the written report in APA 7th ed. format, 10-12 pages in length, not including title page, the 1-page reflection and references. Use headers to distinguish the sections of the paper.
 *Note: There are gaps in information available to the public on this case. For the purposes of this project, you may devise realistic responses and fill in the gaps, missing, or incomplete information as appropriate. 
Excellent writing is expected including following the MEAL plan. This means your first Main idea sentence covers the whole paragraph and does not have a citation. You then follow with Evidence or cited content, then Analysis of your evidence (no citations), and finally a Link out or closing your paragraph (no citations). Paragraphs are generally 5 sentences in length to accommodate the MEAL plan.
Refer back to my previous announcement for lots of writing tips. Please follow them.
My recommendation for this paper is to use PDSA for your quality improvement model. This is commonly used in the health care setting. Remember, this is NOT planning a project, doing it, etc.  Instead, it is small tests of change. Here are some resources:

After your Title (centered and Bold) should come your introduction to the paper. Do Not use the heading introduction. This introduction tells the reader what they will find in the body of the text.
Your first main heading (centered and bold) should be Quality Improvement Model. You will address each of the four components after a brief paragraph that tells the reader what they will find in this section. Level 2 headings are not necessary.
Your second main heading (centered and bold) should be Mitigation Strategies. You will address each of the six components after a brief paragraph that tells the reader what they will find in this section. Level 2 headings are not necessary. Note that the visual for “A” will be described and then referred to (See Appendix A) and place there using APA formatting. You can also briefly describe your communication plan in “C” and put a table or other graphic in the appendix (See Appendix B).
Don’t forget a conclusion (heading centered and bold) with no new information thus no citations.
Your references, writing, and graphics need to be in APA 7th edition.
