Week 4: Project Aims, Values, and Desired
Outcomes

1. A reference to the project’s benefits in terms of cost, time, and/or quality that address needs or
changes, results, impacts, or consequences that the project has on people, programs, or institutions.

2. Goals and objectives that are measurable, shared, and hypothetically agreed on by all key stakeholders.
They are directly linked to the concept of project success factors.

3. What variables need to be considered and and whether or not you have control over them.
• For example, if you were to implement a clinic-wide practice change, would budget be an issue and

how would you address that variable?
• If you were to implement your study, consider how would you gather data. Would you choose the

qualitative or quantitative method?

• An explanation of what your research will provide to the community, or to social
change.

• A description of the desired outcomes: Specifically, state the purpose, focus, and viewpoint of the
project as well as its expected accomplishments.

• While you may not be implementing your project, you should have a goal in mind that relates to solving
your problem.

• Establish a timeline for accomplishing your project goal(s).

This section should be 3–4 pages in length, not including the cover or reference page,
and should address the intended outcomes of your project. You must reference a minimum of 3

scholarly articles.

Use current APA format to style your paper and to cite your sources. Review the rubric for more information on

Module 3 – Case

LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT

Assignment Overview

Most of us are familiar with the role of a manager and that of a leader. We also know
the functions each is expected to perform. However, there is a trend in the UK that
puts managers in a different role. This trend is manager as coach (MAC) and will be
the focus of this assignment. Before beginning the tasks, please read the following
article:

Ladyshewsky, R. K. (2010). The manager as coach as a driver of organizational
development. Leadership & Organization Development Journal, 31(4), 292-306. doi:
10.1108/01437731011043320

Case Assignment

In a 3-page paper, answer the following questions:

1. What is meant by the term manager as coach (MAC)?

2. Is this role more appropriate for a leader or manager?

3. What are the advantages and disadvantages regarding MAC?

4. How does it fit with the other roles of a manager and leader?

5. Would this be an effective tool in a health care setting as a leader? Why or why
not?

Assignment Expectations

1. Conduct additional research to gather sufficient information to justify/support your
responses to each question.

2. Support your paper with peer-reviewed articles, with at least 3 references. Use
the following link for additional information on how to recognize peer-reviewed
journals:

3. You may use Purdue OWL to assist in formatting your assignment:

informatics

During the course, you have done a thorough analysis of a company and the health care subsector in which the company operates now is the time to look at all your findings and insights and be bold and make at least three predictions of what will happen to this organization or industry. Think in terms of the forces that affect your organization, its infrastructure and workforce challenges, if there are any reforms that may have a major impact? Be bold but NOT too bold. Think of a future that is plausible.

It is no secret that phones, computers, and technology in general have started to take over the world. It is safe to say that every one of our co-workers owns a cellphone of their own and has probably used it in the workplace at one point or another. “Information technology opens our windows and doors upon the world, allowing us to quickly communicate and exchange data and information within facilities, within healthcare delivery systems, and even across the globe” (Chamberlain College of Nursing, 2020). This can become tricky when put into legal terms in relation to patient safety and privacy. “Communication within the medical field is critical to ensure safe, timely delivery of healthcare” (Chandra, et al., 2023). Considering this patient scenario, it is both unethical and unlawful to take photos and send and receive patient photos on your personal cellphone. This can very easily violate the HIPAA policy because the patient photos are not sent under a secure network and can be breached through the firewall of your own personal cellphone by hackers. It is also possible that someone is using your phone and sees it mistakingly, or you decide to show friends or family the photos of another patients wound. With that being said, technology is very important in healthcare as it allows for more efficient healthcare when used appropriately. “Technology in healthcare today allows for global healthcare information systems (HISs), more specialized clinical information systems (CIS), and the electronic health record” (EHR) (Hebda et al., 2019). Many facilities have started to incorporate secure messaging devices in order to taking pictures, and send messages relating to patient data/care. This makes it so that the healthcare personnel are not taking any healthcare data home as they are to return the device at the end of their shift and the messages delete are a certain amount of time if not deleted previously by the employee. My facility has specific guidelines regarding the use of personal communication devices in patient care settings. This policy states that we are not allowed to take phones within the health care setting that could breech patient information. This includes taking pictures at the desk that could possibly include patient care charts and patient boards in the background of the photo. We do have access to our hospital email, and secure messaging services within applications on our personal cellphones but we have to download and encrypt our phone with certain secure firewalls in order to keep these apps so that the messages remain secure. This allows for us to use our personal phones, almost like in the scenario, but we would be messaging the PCP with a secure application that could not be hacked or shared.

Evidenced-based practice in healthcare utilizes the current best and most relevant research, clinical experience, and patient/family valued preferences to deliver healthcare that not only improves patient experiences, but also provides better quality care for the patient and empowers clinicians, which leads to increased job satisfaction (Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt, 2023). While research clearly shows the benefits of evidence-based practice, there are a multitude of barriers that stand in the way of it becoming the standard of care such as: the lack of knowledge pertaining to evidence-based practice, lack of belief that this will result in more positive outcomes, overwhelming patient loads, and resistance to change just to name a few. Overcoming these barriers is necessary to move from practices based on outdated research in order to be able to provide better and safer healthcare.

Utilizing evidenced-based practice within the scope of my nursing license promotes lifelong learning and continuously improved nursing practice. My hospital has recently implemented bedside shift report for nurses, which has been shown to improve patient satisfaction and safety. Bedside shift report allows me to visualize both the patient and the surroundings in addition to communicating the plan of care to the patient. Initially, there was much resistance to changing the process of our shift report. Some nurses reported overwhelming patient loads (e.g. “I have to give report to 4 different nurses”) as a reason for which they struggled to do bedside report. After much encouragement from peers and leaders, the transition to bedside shift report has improved nursing accountability and teamwork. Visualizing all of my patients first thing in the morning allows me to ensure accuracy of the report and prioritize care.
