Provide an example of a scenario in which a quality improvement project would require IRB approval, and use relevant literature to support your response. The Institutional Review Board (IRB) is responsible for reviewing research consisting of human subjects before the research is initiated. IRB protect the rights and welfare of the research participants. IRB is charged with the responsibility of reviewing, prior to its initiation, all research (whether funded or not) involving human participants. The IRB is concerned with protecting the welfare, rights, and privacy of human subjects. The IRB has the authority to approve, disapprove, monitor, and require modifications in all research activities that fall within its jurisdiction as specified by both the federal regulations and institutional policy. The IRB shall have at least five members of varying backgrounds in order to provide complete and adequate review of human research and its institutional, legal, scientific, and social implications. The Board will also include at least one member who is not affiliated with the institution and one member who is not a scientist. The IRB has several consultants who advise the Board and are periodically involved in protocol review. Due Date: 13-Jul-2020 at 11:59:59 PM Maximum Points: 5.0 Preconference Evaluation: Individual Success Plan (ISP) The Individual Success Plan (ISP) assignment in this course requires your collaboration with the course faculty early on to establish a plan for successful completion of mutually identified and agreed-upon specific deliverables for your programmatic requirements. Programmatic requirements are: (1) completion of required practice immersion hours, (2) completion of work associated with program competencies, (3) work associated with completion of your Direct Practice Improvement Project. General Requirements: Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment as it pertains to deliverables due in this course. • Locate and download Individual Success Plan (ISP) and Direct Practice Improvement (DPI) timeline document in the DC Network. • Review the DNP Program Milestones document in the DC Network and identify which domains, competencies, and milestones apply to this course. Note: Not all courses have milestones. • Determine what practice experiences you plan to seek in order to address each competency. Include how many hours you plan to set aside to meet your goals. Learners will apply concepts from each of their core courses to reflect upon, critically examine, and improve current practice and are required to integrate scholarly readings to develop case reports that demonstrate increasingly complex and proficient practice. • Use the Individual Success Plan to develop a personal plan for completing your practice hours and how competencies will be met. Show all of the major milestones and deliverables in the timeline. • Within the Individual Success Plan, ensure you identify specific deliverables which can include the following: individualized DNP practice immersion contracts; comprehensive clinical log of hours applied to doctoral-level learning outcomes; learner evaluations; mentor evaluations; current and updated CV; scholarly activities; GCU DNP competency self-assessment; reflective journal; course goals and plan for how competencies and practice immersion hours will be met; faculty and mentor approvals of course goals and documented practice immersion hours; and DPI project milestones. A preconference and postconference/evaluation between learners, faculty, and preceptors is mandatory for all learners enrolled in all DNP courses. Conferences may be conducted face-to-face or via technology. A copy of the signed document will be uploaded into the course shell no later than the end of Topic 1. • Overall Course- and Learner-Specific Objectives: These objectives should be discussed during each conference, as learners are responsible for completing all experiences as mandated for the program. • Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments. The APA Style Guide is located in the Student Success Center. • This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to the beginning to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion. • You are not required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite. • A preconference meeting is intended for the learner and preceptor to review course- and learner-specific learning objectives: the roles, responsibilities, and expectations of learner and preceptor during this immersion experience. All faculty and preceptor information will be given to each party per the learner. Any course or program information requested by the preceptor will be provided by the learner. During this meeting, the learner and preceptor will discuss the course and immersion goals, including any projects that are to take place. The faculty will review the submitted document and must approve proposed projects at this time. The faculty will also send an introductory e-mail to the mentor/preceptor. • Directions: • Identify the specific deliverables you will complete throughout this course from those defined above or others negotiated with your faculty. Update your chair with any revisions or changes to the ISP. • Identify the remaining deliverables you will complete in the upcoming courses. • List the challenges you expect to encounter as you continue the practice hour and competency requirements throughout this course? How might you overcome these challenges? • You can renegotiate these deliverables with your faculty throughout this course and update your ISP accordingly. • Complete the Contact Information table at the beginning of the ISP resource, and type in your signature and the date on which you completed the table. Read the information in the ISP document, including the following: • Learner expectations • Derivation of the ISP • Instructions for completing the ISP • Follow the instructions and complete the ISP. • RUBRIC • Due Date: 15-Jul-2020 at 11:59:59 PM • Maximum Points: 25.0
