Capella University Safety Improvement Initiative and Workplace Safety Paper

please follow the instructions attached.

Instructions

Using Google Sites, assemble an online resource tool kit containing
at least 12 annotated resources that you consider critical to the
success of your safety improvement initiative. These resources should
enable nurses and others to implement and maintain the safety
improvement you have developed.

It is recommended that you focus on the 3 or 4 most critical
categories or themes with respect to your safety improvement initiative.
For example, if your initiative concerns improving workplace safety for
practitioners, you might choose broad themes such as general
organizational safety and quality best practices; environmental safety
and quality risks; individual strategies to improve personal and team
safety; and process best practices for reporting and improving
environmental safety issues.

Following the recommended scheme, you would collect 3 resources on
average for each of the 4 categories. Each resource listing should
include the following:

• An APA-formatted citation of the resource with a working link.
• A description of the information, skills, or tools provided by the resource.
• A brief explanation of how the resource can help nurses better understand or implement the safety improvement initiative.
• A description of how nurses can use this resource and when its use may be appropriate.

Here is an example entry:

• Merret, A., Thomas, P., Stephens, A., Moghabghab, R., & Gruneir, M. (2011). A collaborative approach to fall prevention. Canadian Nurse, 107(8), 24–29. Retrieved from www.canadian-nurse.com/articles/issues/2011/octobe…
  • This article presents the Geriatric Emergency Management-Falls
    Intervention Team (GEM-FIT) project. It shows how a collaborative nurse
    lead project can be implemented and used to improve collaboration and
    interdisciplinary teamwork, as well as improve the delivery of health
    care services. This resource is likely more useful to nurses as a
    resource for strategies and models for assembling and participating in
    an interdisciplinary team than for specific fall-prevention strategies.
    It is suggested that this resource be reviewed prior to creating an
    interdisciplinary team for a collaborative project in a health care
    setting.

Additionally, be sure that your plan addresses the following, which
corresponds to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. Please study
the scoring guide carefully so you understand what is needed for a
distinguished score.

• Identify necessary resources to support the implementation and continued sustainability of a safety improvement initiative.
• Analyze the usefulness of resources to the role group responsible for implementing quality and safety improvements.
• Analyze the value of resources to reduce patient safety risk.
• Present compelling reasons and relevant situations for use of resource tool kit by its target audience.
• Communicate in a clear, logically structured, and professional manner that applies current APA style and formatting.
