Assessing a Healthcare Program/Policy Evaluation

/in /by

Program/policy evaluation is a valuable tool that can help strengthen the quality of programs/policies and improve outcomes for the populations they serve. Program/policy evaluation answers basic questions about program/policy effectiveness. It involves collecting and analyzing information about program/policy activities, characteristics, and outcomes.This information can be used to ultimately improve program services or policy initiatives. Nurses can play a very important role assessing program/policy evaluation for the same reasons that they can be so important to program/policy design. Nurses bring expertise and patient advocacy that can add significant insight and impact. In this Assignment, you will practice applying this expertise and insight by selecting an existing healthcare program or policy evaluation and reflecting on the criteria used to measure the effectiveness of the program/policy. To Prepare: Review the Healthcare Program/Policy Evaluation Analysis Template provided in the Resources. Select an existing healthcare program or policy evaluation or choose one of interest to you. Review community, state, or federal policy evaluation and reflect on the criteria used to measure the effectiveness of the program or policy described. The Assignment: (2–3 pages) Based on the program or policy evaluation you selected, complete the Healthcare Program/Policy Evaluation Analysis Template.Be sure to address the following: Describe the healthcare program or policy outcomes. How was the success of the program or policy measured? How many people were reached by the program or policy selected? How much of an impact was realized with the program or policy selected? At what point in program implementation was the program or policy evaluation conducted? What data was used to conduct the program or policy evaluation? What specific information on unintended consequences was identified? What stakeholders were identified in the evaluation of the program or policy? Who would benefit most from the results and reporting of the program or policy evaluation? Be specific and provide examples. Did the program or policy meet the original intent and objectives? Why or why not? Would you recommend implementing this program or policy in your place of work? Why or why not? Identify at least two ways that you, as a nurse advocate, could become involved in evaluating a program or policy after 1 year of implementation.

Discussion 09: Certification for Medicare & Medicaid

/in /by

HA4070D – Regulatory Environment in Health CareDiscussion 09: Certification for Medicare & MedicaidTask: Reply to this topicFor this discussion, read the Research Exercise with the above title on page 372 of the text.Your client is a hospital that has recently undergone a series of layoffs. A disgruntled former employee, a nurse, has complained to the state health department that the quality of patient care has suffered significantly. The hospital has had reason to be concerned about high rates of nosocomial infections (infections acquired in a hospital). There is also concern about bedsores and soiled linen. One patient’s open wound was infected by maggots. The nurse’s call to the state health department triggered a surprise inspection by the unit charged with overseeing certification for participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. It appears likely that the state Department of Health will seek summarily to terminate the hospital’s status under these programs as a “participating provider” (also known as the “provider agreement”). Consult the Code of Federal Regulations or one or more of the relevant practitioner treatises (e.g., the CCH Medicare and Medicaid Guide or the Aspen Hospital Law Manual) to determine what this means and what can be done about it..What financial, operational, and other repercussions is your hospital now subject to?.What can you do to protect the interests of the hospital?.What legal and regulatory factors are involved here?.Discuss these and all variables that apply with your fellow students.Base your discussion on material from the text and your own experience. Cite sources when necessary. Remember to write 150 words in complete sentences.The Law of Health Care  Finance & Regulation–Vitalsource [email protected]#magicMAN61

Mom used to take care of him. I am not sleeping and I am irritable around him. Yesterday I shouted at him because he wouldn’t let me help him with his laundry. I felt terrible! I am at my wits’ end! My brothers and sisters do not want to put dad in a nursing home but they are not willing to help out. As usual, they have left me with all the responsibility. I work part time and have two small children to care for.” Susan’s father, Sam, sat quietly with tears filling his eyes. He was well nourished and well-groomed but would not make eye contact. Nurse Ann noticed that the house was clean and orderly. A tray in front of the TV had the remains of a ham sandwich and glass of ice tea. Mail was piled up, unopened on a small table near the front door. There was only one car in the driveway and the yard was in need of attention.What questions does Orlando’s theory guide the nurse to consider in caring for Susan and Sam?Develop a family plan of care from the perspective of Orlando.Explore the 1950 and 60’s in the United States:Explore was happening in the United States during this time (culture, social, economics, struggles)What did nursing look like during this time (what were their jobs like, responsibilities, dress, autonomy, respect)What is the most influential accomplishment in nursing theory from the 1950’s and 1960’s?Assignment Expectations:Length: 14-20 slides
