How does your change strategy address all aspects of the Quadruple Aim, especially the well-being of health care professionals?

Change Strategy and Implementation

Scenario
For the setting that you choose you will need to have a data set that depicts sub-optimal outcomes related to a clinical issue. This data could be from existing sources in the course (Using Evidence to Drive Improvement), a relevant data set that already exists (a data set from the case study you used as a basis for your Concept Map assessment, or from your current place of practice), or an appropriate data set that you have created yourself.

After you have selected an appropriate data set, use your understanding of the data to create at least one realistic goal (though you may create more) that will be driven by a change strategy appropriate for the environment and goal.
Potential topics for this assessment could be:

Consider ways to help minimize decline in progress in rehabilitation after STROKE as focused on for in Concept Map assessment. As a starting point you could ask yourself, “What could be changed to facilitate safety and minimize decrease in progess or increased weakness, thus leading to fall. Trauma and readmission to the hospital?”

Consider how to help a patient experiencing traumatic stress or depression after. As a starting point you could ask yourself, “How could the care environment be changed to enhance coping?”

Once you determine the change you would like to make, consider the following:
What data will you use to justify the change?

How can the team achieve this change with a reasonable cost?

What are the effects on the workplace?

What other implementation considerations do you need to consider to ensure that the change strategy is successful?

How does your change strategy address all aspects of the Quadruple Aim, especially the well-being of health care professionals?

Once the change strategy is implemented, how would you evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of the care system if the desired outcomes are met?

Instructions
Your assessment submission should include a data table that illustrates the current and desired states of the clinical issue you are attempting to improve through your application of change strategies. Additionally, you will need to explain the rationale for your decisions around your chosen change strategies, as well as how the change strategies will be successfully implemented.
The bullet points below correspond to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. Be sure that your change strategy addresses all of them.

Develop a data table that accurately reflects the current and desired states of one or more clinical outcomes.

Propose change strategies that will help to achieve the desired state of one or more clinical outcomes.

Justify the specific change strategies used to achieve desired outcomes.

Explain how change strategies will lead to quality improvement with regard to safety and equitable care.

Explain how change strategies will utilize interprofessional considerations to ensure successful implementation.

Communicate the change plan in a way that makes the data and rationale easily understood and compelling.

Integrate relevant sources to support assertions, correctly formatting citations and references using current APA style.
