Discussion 2 oart 300 words

Director Now is very pleased to have the information provided by the qualitative study of the supervisors.
The data suggest that there are many possible explanations for why staff do not adequately wash their hands, including not understanding the guidelines, feeling too busy to wash hands for the suggested time, failing to see the link between the infection rate and hand washing, and simply forgetting to always wash their hands at all appropriate times.
Mr. Assist has several suggestions to increase the percentage of staff that wash their hands according to the standards and reduce the infection rate. He has four hypotheses:

Training four times per year regarding proper hand washing and the rate of infection will reduce the infection rate.
Increased signage in multiple languages about appropriate hand washing procedures will reduce the infection rate.
Revising hospital policies to mandate that staff follow CDC hand washing procedures will reduce the infection rate.
Developing effective procedures to ensure that all hand washing stations have adequate supplies 100% of the time will reduce the infection rate.

Director Now needs your recommendation of which hypothesis she should use in a final quality improvement effort.
For this Discussion, identify one of the hypotheses above and discuss its potential to reduce the infection rate. Assuming that Ms. Now would choose the hypothesis recommend the target population she should use to test the hypothesis and the specific sampling method for a subset of the target population that is realistic to include.
Be sure to define probability and non-random sampling in your own words with citations in the body of the text and references at the bottom of the post. Explain your choice for sampling by planning through effective analysis of the option, i.e., identifying strengths and weaknesses of your choice and why you believe the strengths outweigh the weaknesses.
IMPORTANT: Each person should pick a different hypothesis until all have been discussed at least once. This will enhance your discussion.
 
 
Recently Director Now read Trochim’s (2006) article on evaluation culture. She wants to create such a culture within the hospital. Please consider one of the following questions to help Director Now better understand an evaluative culture and what she needs to do to create such a culture.

Mr. Assist believes that evaluative research is similar to action research. Do you agree? Analyze the similarities in the action research cycle presented in your textbook with that of the Planning-Evaluation Cycle discussed by Trochim (2006).
What group of individuals in the hospital is most likely to accept the evaluation culture idea? Please explain your answer.
How might Ms. Now introduce the idea of an evaluation culture that is in the spirit of such an idea?
What type(s) of hospital activities seem best to be improved by evaluative research?

For this Discussion, focus on one of the questions above. Be sure to define the research terms in your own words with citations in the body of the text and references at the bottom of the post.

Contact your instructor if you need additional assistance. See the Course Policies regarding late assignments. Failure to submit your paper to the Dropbox on time will result in a deduction of points.
Background
Our text (Hebda, 2013) provides us with a broad perspective on telehealth. However, the specialty of telenursing is only briefly discussed. Healthcare is readily embracing any technology to improve patient outcomes, streamline operations, and lower costs. This technology includes the use of various applications based in various environments where registered nurses indirectly provide professional nursing care.
Scenario
The following scenario serves as the basis for your paper:
You have worked with Tomika for the past five years. Tomika shares with you that she has resigned and plans to work in an agency that installs telemonitoring equipment into the homes of those with chronic illnesses. Nurses monitor the patients using the equipment with the goal of detecting problems before patients need to be readmitted to the hospital. Tomika will be working from her own home, with occasional meetings at the agency. She would not be visiting her patients in their homes, but rather would be assessing and interacting with them via videoconferencing. She tells you that there are still job openings and encourages you to apply.
You are intrigued by this, and decide to investigate whether telenursing would be a good choice for you, too. Is telenursing in your future?
Directions
1.       You are to research (find evidence), compose, and type a scholarly paper that describes telenursing as described above, and whether it is a good fit for you. Reflect on what you have learned in this class to date about technology, privacy rights, ethical issues, interoperability, patient satisfaction, consumer education, and other topics. Your text by Hebda (2013, Chapter 25) discusses telehealth in detail. However, your focus should be from the professional nurse’s role in telenursing. Do not limit your review of the literature to only what you read in your text. Nurses in various specialties need to know about the advantages and disadvantages of telenursing as it applies to their patients. For example, when you discharge a patient from an acute care setting, will a telenursing service assist that individual with staying out of the hospital? You may need to apply critical thinking skills to development of your paper. In the conclusion of your paper, describe your current employment situation, and whether a job in telenursing would, or would not, fit with your career goals and life situation once you graduate from Chamberlain.
2.       Use Microsoft Word and APA formatting to develop your paper. Consult the Publication manual of the APA, 6th edition if you have questions, for example, margin size, font type and size (point), use of third person, and so forth. Take advantage of the writing service, Smarthinking, which is accessed by clicking on the link called the Tutor Source, found under the Course Home tab. Also, review and use the various documents in Doc Sharing related to APA.
3.       The length of the paper should be 4–5 pages, excluding the title page and the reference page. Limit your references to key sources.
 
4.       The paper should contain an introduction that catches the attention of the reader with interesting facts and supporting sources of evidence, which need to be mentioned as in-text citations. Keep in mind that APA guidelines state you are not to call this an “Introduction” but you should include it at the beginning of your paper. The Body should present the advantages and disadvantages of telenursing from your perspective as an employee, and the patient’s perspective as a recipient of the care nurses provide. The Conclusion and Recommendations should summarize your findings and state your position on whether you will apply for a position with the agency.
