NR 451 Week 6 Assignment: Evidence Based Practice Change Process 100% Updated Summer 2019/2020 Star Point 4: (Implementation) Describe the process for gaining permission to plan and begin a trial. Is there a specific group, committee, or nurse leaders involved? The process of gaining permission to plan and begin a trial first begins with management of the hospital. One cannot perform a trial without the permission of management. There also needs to be the onboarding of the finance department to see how much resources can be allocated to the project. Quality assurance is important for ensuring policy and procedures are being followed. There also needs to be permission from other nurses on the unit for their cooperation. Having signed permission from patients are also important to begin the trial. Patients need to be aware of what they are getting into and if they would cooperate or not. Describe the plan for educating the staff about the change process trial and how they will be impacted or asked to participate. First, coordination with a nurse educator is important in order for them to educate staff members on the change process. Nurse educators can educate staff members of the proper way of preventing CAUTI and an ongoing refresher course throughout the trial period. Educators could be available for all shifts throughout the day in order for convenience to the staff. Educators can come to the unit to educate for added convenience. Online educational learning exercises would be an also added benefit.
