This paper moves you from a nursing situation to a PICOT question and finally reading some evidence. Research and evidence-based practice starts with questions. These questions can be identified through nursing situations. For this assignment, you will identify and describe a nursing situation in which you have recognized a problem in your nursing practice. The problem must be something that you see consistently, such as central line infections. Next, develop one PICOT question (see p. 30, Box 2.1 templates for a PICOT Question). The types of PICOT questions include intervention, prognoses/prediction, diagnosis or diagnostic test, etiology, and meaning.Next you find an EBP publication and provide a short summary.
This FINAL Paper is graded for points using a Rubric. The faculty provides comment. The TURNITIN report provides you feedback with grammar edits and a similarity report.
You can review the TURNITIN report. A good paper for a writer scholar is less than 25% match in the similarity report.

Project: Promoting Health Care Quality Section 3:
Quality Measurement and Assessment Measuring and assessing quality provides a foundation for identifying needs for improvement, developing effective interventions, and then monitoring progress toward desired results. In the Sadeghi, Barzi, Mikhail, and Shabot text, the authors assert that an effort to improve quality “calls for setting outcome and performance targets (goals and expectations) beginning with the end in mind, and then formulating initiatives and actions (processes) that can serve as a bridge to take the organization from its current performance to its desired performance” (p. 182). Having this “end in mind” can provide justification for dedicating valuable resources toward the effort, and help to lay a clear, concrete path that takes the organization from uncovering gaps between current performance and evidence-based targets to actually achieving those goals. In this section of the Course Project, you focus on what you would measure—and how you would measure it—relative to your previously identified quality improvement issue. Note: This section of the Course Project will serve as the Portfolio Assignment for this course. Course Project: Section 3: Quality Measurement and Assessment: write a 3-5 page paper to introduce your quality improvement plan. For more details on this project, see the Week 7 Project area for specifics to include for this paper. I have attached my paper from week 4 for the continuation of the project. To prepare: •Review the Learning Resources. Also conduct a search of the literature related to your selected quality improvement issue and complete the Evidence Matrix (provided in this week’s Learning Resources). •Evaluate the evidence presented in the research literature and the quality standards proposed by various organizations, including the IOM’s six aims for quality improvement. •Based on this review and your knowledge of the organization that you have selected, determine appropriate measures and indicators of performance related to your identified quality improvement issue. •Consider how you could gather and use historical evidence of the organization’s performance related to the quality improvement issue. Also consider methods for gathering and assessing current quantitative and qualitative data, including those currently in use by the organization (e.g., chart audit data, staff surveys, quality indicators that are monitored, observations). If possible, examine actual data to assess your selected organization’s performance related to the issue. •Think about what, specifically, you would like to achieve related to this issue. Establish realistic, evidence-based quality performance targets. •Analyze gap(s) between the organization’s current performance and the performance targets. •As you do this, you may wish to create a graphic organizer/alignment chart for your own use that illustrates: •The measures and indicators that you would evaluate •Current and historical data related to this quality issue—either actual data or methods for how you would collect and analyze the data •Methods for collecting and analyzing data in the future (including when you would do this) •Realistic, evidence-based targets

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
One of the most basic principles of public health is that all people have a right to health. Unfortunately, a right to health does not guarantee good health or equivalent health status amongst people. Although the term “disparities” is often interpreted to mean racial or ethnic disparities, many dimensions of disparities exist in the United States, particularly in health. If a health outcome is seen in a greater or lesser extent between populations, there is disparity. Race, ethnicity, sex, sexual identity, age, disability, socioeconomic status, and geographic location all contribute to an individual’s ability to achieve good health.
The purpose of this assignment is to consider the historic background of health disparities. You will also relate this history to the current state of healthcare, changes that have occurred over time and changes that are still needed in public health.
Using the readings for this module, Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, respond to the following:
Examine the differences between health equity, health disparity, and health inequality, using examples and scholarly references for support.
Review the article and answer the question that follows:
What aspects of the article do you think are still applicable in health services today and which do you think are not?
Support your statements with appropriate examples and scholarly references.
Write your initial response in approximately 200 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
Explain the finance mechanism involved in government health care of your assigned country. Are there any new and innovative healthcare technologies being done in that country?This assignment should be substantial in length(minimum of 300 words), meet APA guidelines and should be supported with at least 2 secondary references and in-text citation. The reflection should contain well-developed ideas, and clearly addresses key issues, problems and questions. Lastly, ensure that it is free of errors in grammar, punctuation, and spelling – it must meet proper format and meets citation/reference requirements.
Q2
Evaluate two (2) advantages for a health care administrator to engage the services of a consultant to improve the functions of HR. 1. Consultants have specialized knowledge, technical expertise and experience. Their expertise qualifies them to address specific issues or problems. Experts can provide focused advice, conduct training and create a strategic plan (Fallon & McConnell, 2014). 2. Consultants can provide a less bias point of view (Fallon & McConnell, 2014). Sometimes when problems arise and issues are pressing, it is hard to assess possible solutions when you are too close to the situation. Also, because the consultant has no stock or interest in the organization, they are able to be brutally honest concerning staff and processes.
