Assessment 1 Attached. Write a 46 page policy proposal and practice guidelines for improving quality and performance associated with the benchmark metric underperformance you advocated for improving in Assessment 1. Introduction: In advocating for institutional policy changes related to local, state, or federal healthcare laws or policies, health leaders must be able to develop and present clear and well-written policy and practice guideline proposals that will enable a team, a unit, or an organization as a whole to resolve relevant performance issues and bring about improvements in the quality and safety of healthcare. This assessment offers you an opportunity to take the lead in proposing such changes. As a master’s-level healthcare practitioner, you have a valuable viewpoint and voice to bring discussions about policy development, both inside and outside your care setting. Developing policy for internal purposes can be a valuable process toward quality and safety improvement and ensuring compliance with various healthcare regulatory pressures. This assessment offers you an opportunity to take the lead in proposing such changes as well. Instructions: Propose an organizational policy and practice guidelines that you believe will lead to an improvement in quality and performance associated with the benchmark underperformance you advocated for improving in Assessment 1. Be precise, professional, and persuasive in demonstrating the merit of your proposed actions. Requirements: The policy proposal requirements outlined below correspond to the scoring guide criteria, so be sure to address each main point. Read the performance-level descriptions for each criterion to see how your work will be assessed. In addition, be sure to note the requirements for document format and length and for supporting evidence. Explain the need for creating a policy and practice of guidelines to address a shortfall in meeting a benchmark metric prescribed by local, state, or federal healthcare policies or laws. Use your topic from Assessment 1 to complete this. What is the current benchmark for the organization and the numeric score for underperformance? How is the benchmark underperformance affecting the provision of quality care or the organization’s operations? What are the potential repercussions of not making any changes? What evidence supports your conclusions? Summarize your proposed organizational policy and practice guidelines. Identify applicable local, state, or federal healthcare policy or law that prescribes relevant performance benchmarks that your policy proposal addresses (using your Advocacy Issues topic from the AHA). Keep your audience in mind when creating this summary statement. Analyze the potential effects of environmental factors on your recommended practice guidelines. What regulatory considerations could affect your recommended guidelines? What resources could affect your recommended guidelines (staffing, financial, and logistical considerations, or support services)? Explain ethical, evidence-based practice guidelines to improve targeted benchmark performance and the impact the proposed changes will have on the targeted group. What does the evidence-based literature suggest are potential strategies to improve performance for your targeted benchmark? How would these strategies ensure performance improvement or compliance with applicable local, state, or federal healthcare policy or law? How can you ensure that these strategies are ethical and culturally inclusive in their application? What is the direct impact of these changes on the stakeholders’ work setting/job requirements? Explain why particular stakeholders and groups must be involved in further development and implementation of your proposed policy and practice guidelines. Why is it important to engage these stakeholders and groups? How can their participation produce a stronger policy and facilitate its implementation? Present strategies for collaborating with the stakeholder group to implement your proposed policy and practice guidelines. What role will the stakeholder group play in implementing your proposal? Why is the stakeholder group and their collaboration important for successful implementation? Organize content so ideas flow logically with smooth transitions. Proofread your proposal, before you submit it, to minimize errors that could distract readers and make it more difficult for them to focus on the substance of your proposal. Use paraphrasing and summarization to represent ideas from external sources. Be sure to apply correct APA formatting to source citations and references. Policy Proposal Format and Length It may be helpful to use a template or format for your proposal used in your current organization. The risk management or quality department could be a good resource for finding an appropriate template or format. If you are not currently in practice, or your organization does not have these resources, many appropriate templates are freely available on the Internet. Your policy summary statement should be succinct (about one paragraph). Overall, your proposal should be 46 pages in length. Supporting Evidence Cite 35 references to current and scholarly research, case studies, or best practice guidelines to support your analysis and recommendations. Competencies Measures: By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and scoring guide criteria: Competency 1: Analyze relevant healthcare laws, policies, and regulations; their application; and their effects on organizations, interprofessional teams, and professional practice. Explain and interpret for stakeholders the need for creating a policy and practice guidelines to address a shortfall in meeting a benchmark metric prescribed by local, state, or federal healthcare policies or laws. Competency 2: Lead the development and implementation of ethical and culturally sensitive policies that improve health outcomes for individuals, organizations, and populations.
