Write a paper advocating for the Nursing Role in Program Design and Implementation
As their names imply, the honeyguide
bird and the honey badger both share an affinity for honey. Honeyguide
birds specialize in finding beehives but struggle to access the honey
within. Honey badgers are well-equipped to raid beehives but cannot
always find them. However, these two honey-loving species have learned
to collaborate on an effective means to meet their objectives. The
honeyguide bird guides honey badgers to newly discovered hives. Once the
honey badger has ransacked the hive, the honey guide bird safely enters
to enjoy the leftover honey.
Much like honeyguide birds and honey badgers,
nurses and health professionals from other specialty areas can—and
should—collaborate to design effective programs. Nurses bring
specialties to the table that make them natural partners to
professionals with different specialties. When nurses take the requisite
leadership in becoming involved throughout the healthcare system, these
partnerships can better design and deliver highly effective programs
that meet objectives.
In this Assignment, you will practice this type
of leadership by advocating for a healthcare program. Equally as
important, you will advocate for a collaborative role of the nurse in
the design and implementation of this program. To do this, assume you
are preparing to be interviewed by a professional
organization/publication regarding your thoughts on the role of the
nurse in the design and implementation of new healthcare programs.
To Prepare:
Review the Resources and reflect on your thinking regarding the role
of the nurse in the design and implementation of new healthcare
programs.
Select a healthcare program within your practice and consider the design and implementation of this program.
Reflect on advocacy efforts and the role of the nurse in relation to healthcare program design and implementation.
The Assignment: (2–4 pages)
In a 2- to 4-page paper, create an interview transcript of your responses to the following interview questions:
Tell us about a healthcare program, within your practice. What are the costs and projected outcomes of this program?
Who is your target population?
What is the role of the nurse in providing input for the design of this healthcare program? Can you provide examples?
What is your role as an advocate for your target population for
this healthcare program? Do you have input into design decisions? How
else do you impact design?
What is the role of the nurse in healthcare program
implementation? How does this role vary between design and
implementation of healthcare programs? Can you provide examples?
Who are the members of a healthcare team that you believe are most needed to implement a program? Can you explain why?
