Criteria for each section:
-Describe the quality or patient safety issue related to the aging adult why does this practice issue need to be addressed? Include the scope of the problem including national trends with supporting data from the literature (e.g. significance, incidence, prevalence, and/or cost): Complete and accurate descriiption of the quality or patient safety issue. Provides thorough discussion of national trends with supporting data from the literature.
– For your selected quality or patient safety issue describe the EBP intervention identified in the evidence review. Discuss recommendations for improving practice for the aging adult based on your evidence review: EBP intervention and recommendations for improving practice for the older adult based on the evidence review are completely and accurately described and supported by the literature.
– Select a QI model to guide a hypothetical implementation of the proposed intervention. Provide rationale for your selection of the QI model: Appropriate QI model selected. Supported with complete rationale, supported by the literature.
– Describe in detail the steps needed to APPLY the QI model to improve the practice issue. Discuss what would happen in each step including but not limited to descriiption of intervention and setting, composition of the interprofessional team, use of quality tools, expected outcomes: Correctly identifies and describes in detail the steps to APPLY the identified model/process.
– Describe one QI tool that could be used in the process. Provide rationale for selection: Appropriate QI tool is selected for identified step in the process. Tool is described in full and appropriate rationale is provided and supported by the literature.
– Describe strategies to integrate interprofessional disciplines into the improvement process. Uses Module 5 course materials to support: Module 5 course materials used to correctly identify and describe role of interprofessional disciplines in QI process.
