Benchmark – Evidence-Based Practice Project Proposal: Organizational Culture and Readiness

In order to successfully implement a change within an organization, the change agent must assess the organization’s culture and readiness for change. In 750-1,000 words, analyze the culture and level of readiness of the organization for which your evidence-based practice project is proposed. You will use the assessment of the organization’s culture and readiness in the Topic 8 assignment, during which you will synthesize the various aspects of your project into a final paper detailing your evidence-based practice project proposal.

Include the following:

1. Describe the organization’s culture and explain to what degree the culture supports change. Consider organizational and leadership structure, mission and values, interprofessional collaboration/team engagement, communication, perception of the organization by employees, etc.

2. Select an organizational readiness tool and assess the level or readiness for change within your organization. Identify the readiness tool and summarize the survey results. Discuss the degree to which the culture will support and sustain an evidence-based practice change. Consider strengths and weaknesses, potential barriers, stakeholder support, timing of the proposal, and resources. Provide rationale.

3. Discuss what health care process and systems you would recommend for improving quality, safety, and cost-effectiveness for the organization.

4. Propose strategies to better facilitate the readiness of the organization.

5. Identify the stakeholders and team members for the project. Include what their duties will be in the evidence-based practice project proposal.

6. Explain what information and communication technologies are needed for the implementation and how they will be integrated in the setting by the internal stakeholders. Explain how these will help improve nursing practice and care delivery for individuals and populations for your intervention.

Lit Review for Com 221

For our third paper, you’ll start with an idea of a specific research question, look for and summarize research that responds to that question, integrate that research into a 6-7 page essay in APA Style.
If you have the name of the author, it will likely look like (Rivera, 2015, p. 77). If you don’t have the author’s name, you’ll use the title, and it will likely look like (“Caring in Teaching,” 2015, ¶ 4). Note that the page or paragraph number is included; you’ll use the page or paragraph number if you directly quote your source, not if you only paraphrase or summarize your source. think about your use of sources:
Are they organized into sections or are they a series of summaries?
Are they responding to your research question or are they broadly related to your topic?
Are they a mix of paraphrases and quotes or all quotes/no quotes?
As you can imagine, the former for each question is best.

You might also want to take a look at your APA Style citations. If you have the name of the author, it will likely look like (Rivera, 2015, p. 77). If you don’t have the author’s name, you’ll use the title, and it will likely look like (“Caring in Teaching,” 2015, ¶ 4). Note that the page or paragraph number is included; you’ll use the page or paragraph number if you directly quote your source, not if you only paraphrase or summarize your source.

=An overarching finding uses thoughtful analysis to answer a narrow, insightful research question.
=Findings show a depth of analysis with integrated quotes and paraphrases from diverse sources.
=Multiple sources are (a) used in an integrated style that contributes to the paper’s overall synthesis and (b) correctly formatted as in-text and Reference citations.
=The introduction progresses toward a research question, the conclusion proposes a research gap, and transitions are subtle yet clear.
=Stylistically mature sentences are varied, and grammar, tone, and spelling are always correct.

I) How was the Oka Crisis exacerbated by i) poor communication ii) a lack of understanding of different cultures iii) differing perspectives of what the crisis was about.

Please find below the link to your asynchronous exercise.

The Whale and the Raven, produced by Mirjam Leuze (2019, 1h41min), presents a number of challenges and opportunities to consider in the communication planning process. Identify one of each.

What two topics, as a communication planner, do you identify in the film as the most significant? Whose perspective does each topic represent?

When watching the film: i) turn off all other electronics ii) be patient as the film unfolds iii) focus only on the film if possible. Be sure to watch the film to the very end.
