Assignment: Exploring EBP Quality Improvement
Module 3 Assignment: Exploring EBP Quality Improvement
Continue working on your Module 3 Assignment to complete this week. Keep in mind that the key requirements are to identify a hypothetical practice problem as the focus of an evidence-based quality improvement project; a hypothetical health care setting for the project based on investigating actual sites; stakeholders for project approval and implementation within health care settings; and a presentation outlining the basic steps of a specific framework/model for translating research and evidence to improved practice.
Although “hypothetical” is the watchword for this Assignment, the substantial effort you have invested and the information and insights obtained can pay real dividends as you begin your DNP project in earnest.
The Assignment
Part 1: Key Project Elements
Complete your paper of 6–8 pages, plus cover page and references page, explaining your investigation of three hypothetical practice sites for an EBP QI project.
Part 2: Implementation Science Presentation
Complete your PowerPoint presentation of 3–5 slides, plus cover and reference slides, to inform hypothetical stakeholders.
Reminder: The College of Nursing requires that all papers submitted include a title page, introduction, summary, and references. The Sample Paper provided at the Walden Writing Center provides an example of those required elements (available at https://academicguides.waldenu.edu/writingcenter/templates/general#s-lg-box-20293632). All papers submitted must use this formatting.
Submit Parts 1 and 2 of your Assignment (Word document and PowerPoint document).

Preparing for an EBP QI Presentation to Stakeholders
at a Practice Site
Use these guidelines in preparing a presentation, keeping in mind that for your Module 3 Assignment, you are not completing all steps (follow the specific assignment instructions) and are not making an actual presentation. However, this process has wide applications and will support your future work in developing a DNP Project on evidence-based practice and quality improvement (EBP QI) for this doctoral program, as well as other change initiatives you will lead as a DNP.
Identify key stakeholders in the practice site who are responsible for quality improvement/evidence-based practice.
o For stakeholder analysis—those who will be involved in, affected by, or influential in the change process; the role of each; their level of commitment and influence for or against the change. Review stakeholder assessment guidelines (White, Dudley-Brown, & Terhaar, 2019, pp. 218–221).
Determine practice problem(s) of concern to stakeholders/nursing staff that are amenable to intervention.
Conduct a needs assessment to further define the problem(s) identified and methods used to further describe the problem.
Determine organizational readiness for change (can be assessed at the individual or supra-individual level, e.g., team, department).
o Change commitment reflects members’ shared resolve to implement a change.
o Change efficacy reflects members’ shared belief in their collective capability to implement a change.
Conduct a literature search to find evidence of existing interventions, as well as perceived need for interventions to resolve the identified problem, as defined in current existing publications.
Generate a proposal for addressing the problem based on findings in the literature.
Present the proposal to the stakeholders and elicit their comments, suggestions, and support.
Obtain written commitments from key partners that state what they will do to implement the innovation; this includes nurses and other health care providers whose support is needed.
In making a presentation, always lead with the motivating force of your DNP role as an advocate of positive social change. You will give power to your presentation!
