Use the internet to find one example of each of the following graphs:

Use the internet to find one example of each of the following graphs:

• Line graph
• Bar graph (horizontal or vertical bars are acceptable)
• Pie graph

Suppose you were presenting these graphs to a group of people (clients, co-workers, friends, etc.) who are not mathematically savvy.

Create 8-slides presentation with speaker notes/references that provides a non-technical explanation of each graph. Remember, you are addressing people who probably do not like or understand mathematical terms.

For each graph, include the following:

• Screenshot of your graph.
• For the line graph, what are the labels on the horizontal and vertical axes?
• For the bar graph, what labels are on the bars? What is being measured in this graph? (Hint: look at the axis label.)
• For the pie graph, what is the title, in other words, what is it measuring?
• How would you improve each graph if at all? Is anything missing, misleading, or perhaps just wrong with this graph?
• What would be the appropriate measure(s) for central tendency (mean, median, mode) to display with each graph?
• What measure of dispersion (range, standard deviation) would be best?
• Provide a reference citation for the source of your graph so your facilitator can find the graph online. Note: sometimes information changes from day to day on websites, hence the reason for the required screenshot in first bullet point above.

Note: If you are having difficulty finding graphs here are a few places to consider looking:

• Your online utility bill
• Your fitness app
• A dashboard at your office
• U.S. Government websites

In a comparative analysis, discuss the significance of each report on recent quality initiatives implemented

Scenario

You are the risk manager for a local, long-term care facility. Part of your role is to develop processes that fosters an environment that prioritizes patient safety. Conduct a comparative analysis of two of the most widely published briefs from the Institute of Medicine (IOM) in recent years – To Err is Human and Crossing the Quality Chasm. According to the National Academies of Sciences and Engineering Medicine (2018), To Err is Human illuminated how tens of thousands of Americans die each year from medical errors and effectively put the issue of patient safety and quality on the radar screen of public and private policymakers. The Quality Chasm report described broader quality issues and defines six aims—care should be safe, effective, patient-centered, timely, efficient and equitable—and 10 rules for care delivery redesign.

Instructions

In a comparative analysis, discuss the significance of each report on recent quality initiatives implemented by entities such as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), and the Joint Commission. Your comparative analysis should also contain an examination of the quantitative data collection methods used in each report. Make a recommendation based on your analysis on how your organization and similar organizations can utilize the findings from the reports to assist in continuous quality improvement of operations and the achievement of organizational goals.
