The integration of this movement to use EBP will be greatly received by the nurses that implement this company’s products. The facilitators of this project will be administration and the nurse educators. Clinical Inquiry Integrating clinical inquiry into this organization should be easy to pass along and encourage. The communication between colleagues is driven by social media and keeps everyone connected and informed. The teaching methods will have the EBP’s integrated into the mode of teaching to achieve the positive outcomes. This company is comprised of well-educated medical professionals that are responsive to change when there is a positive outcome to be reached. Problem Description This project seeks an evidenced-based derived solution to a problem in the workplace. The workplace of choice is B Braun Medical Inc. which is a large, internationally recognized medical supply company. The problem is the poor outcomes that they are receiving after performing a less than optimal educational in-service, from the CPE’s on one of their IV products. This proposal will look at how to improve the teaching method to achieve better satisfaction …show more content…

One of the objectives is to use the Kurt Lewin’s Change Theory to amend the current teaching instruction. At the end of the teaching transformation, a satisfaction survey will be used to collect feedback on the changes made. A review of the evidenced-based changes will provide a better picture of what works and what doesn’t. The Teaching Transformation of the Educators proposal is an opportunity to use real world experiences and apply the newly learned EBP’s to propose a solution to a problem. This proposal is looking to find a solution to a negative teaching method to produce better outcomes. The use of EBP’s will guide the successful change in practice. The overview of this proposal centers on EBP’s, using a change model, finding a more suitable teaching method, and reviewing the situation after the project is implemented with a satisfaction survey. Literature Support This proposal requires valid research support for the proposed solution to the problem. A literature review was conducted to find the evidence needed to apply to the problem at hand (see Appendix B). The search methods, a summary of the findings, and the validity of the research will be explored in this

    Health Care Organization are Joining together to provide excellent patient care using EBP . Evidence-Based Practice skills assist perioperative team members who may have to justify why they practice a certain way by providing the rationale for their care . For example if a surgeon does not want to cover his hair with a bouffant cap and asks the nurse to explain why , the nurse can reply " Because that is what our policy says" or the nurse can explain that there are several research articles demonstrating that hair can harbor bacteria that can be dispersed into the air when shed and that completely covering hair on the head and facial hair protects the patient from exposure to potentially pathogenic microorganism that can cause surgical site infection

    34). One of the main opportunities for this change is that it will allow all the Nurse Clinicians to apply their extensive knowledge, skills, and judgment to better monitor and audit the documentation system. Each Clinician will also have the authority to address any identified issues or concerns directly with the staff, as opposed to handing this over to the APN. Furthermore, the Nurse Clinicians will ensure the data gleaned from the EHR and MDS accurately represents the care provided, and they will assist in translating the results of the MDS into practice to better enhance patient care. Additional opportunities for professional development could include developing educational material or developing and implementing unit quality improvement projects. A second opportunity is the chance to be a part of the new initiatives coming to the VC over the next few years. As the organization moves towards implementing more technology, such as electronic medication administration records and computerized provider order entry, the Clinicians will be able to provide their knowledge of organizational workflows to ensure a system will meet the needs of the staff. Additionally, the Clinicians can be a part of the implementation team to help educate and support the staff as they learn any new software. Finally, the benefits of a centralized model and

    Over the last 10 years evidence-based practice (EBP) has grown substantially and is changing the nursing care delivered to patients along with the nursing work environment. Nurses are more involved in the decision making process, and are making clinical decisions with better patient outcomes (Good, Fink, Krugman, Oman, & Traditi, 2011). With technology growing at such a fast pace, new and more effective medicines, medical devices, and procedures are developed daily.

  • Four Teaching Strategies

    1563 Words  | 4 Pages

    The biggest challenge before a teacher is the presentation of a lesson. If a lesson presentation is effective, students can reach the goals of life by acquisition of knowledge; and if the teacher is unsuccessful in his presentation, it is impossible to achieve the educational objectives. The method of teaching is directly related to the presentation of the lesson. The method of teaching depends on the nature of the subject, and the tact of the teacher. This essay is aimed at assessing teaching methods and strategies used in schools and discuss innovations that should take place to make them more effective and learner centred. Brandes and Ginnis (1996:167) acknowledge that the movement from established well-known ground to explore new teaching strategies is a tough challenge to teachers.

  • What Kind of Teacher am I Going to be?

    1049 Words  | 3 Pages

    In every single class I attended during this whole semester, I must admit that a lot of my preconceived ideas of teaching changed drastically. Concepts so highly regarded by an outdated system such as grammar, translation, behaviourism, stimuli, among others started to look quite trivial when we actually begin to put our focus in matters as important as motivation, just to name one. I cannot do but regard this class as a new beginning in all the educational topics I ever thought about, with a fair amount of ‘positive’ drills (like a constant ‘no grammar focus’ repetition) and with a perpetual discussion on varied topics related to our current educational system, making contrasts between what a teacher should be and what teachers actually act like, new ideas flowed to shape an updated notion of teaching.

  • Classroom Observation Reflective Essay

    As I reflect on my experiences observing in three different classrooms over the last three months, I cannot express how much I have learned by being in the classroom. I began the Master of Science in Education last fall and previous to the practicum experience I had taken 8 classes. I read books, listened to the experiences of my classmates and instructors, reflected on my own education, and tried to imagine how this information was going to prepare me to face a classroom of elementary school students. While I learned theories and skills that should be known by any educator, these classes could not teach me what I most desired to know: what tangible steps could I take to correctly implement all of the correct ways of teaching.
