Analyze The Effectiveness Of The Adverse And Sentinel Events Reporting Program Developed By The Joint Commission

Analyze the effectiveness of the Adverse and Sentinel Events reporting program developed by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations to provide a safe, effective, and efficient environment of care.

Order Details/Instructions:Background- Describe the problem, organization, or situation; identify the specific issues of interest or controversy; and present background and facts of the problem, organization, or situation that will enable the reader to clearly understand the issue.

Define the Problem- Identify and clearly state the problem, the management issue, in which an element of the identified problem or situation is not meeting expectations. Remember that what appears to be the problem may actually be just a symptom of a bigger problem. Dig deep to be sure you've identified the real problems. If there appears to be more than one problem or issue, decide if they are separate or related issues. State the problem in the form of a question. For example, if a work group is not performing effectively, an effective problem statement might be, "How can the staff shortage improve?" rather than simply "Short staff problems."

Literary Review- Present what you discovered in your search of the literature. Review issues, theories, concepts, and studies and review what other writers and researchers have to say about the subject of your analysis. Discuss the concepts, ideas, or insights that are most valuable in helping you make sense of your project. What theories can you use? What writers say something of value? Why is it of value? Which models are the least helpful, and why? What theories or concepts will you challenge or criticize because your findings are different? In short, demonstrate an understanding of the literature and apply it sensibly to the problem. Note: A literature review is a required element of this assignment. A good rule of thumb is to review at least 10 resources

Problem Analysis- This section should provide a detailed analysis of the causes of the problem(s) or issue(s) you identified in Section II. A major objective is to clearly illustrate how you are using the healthcare course concepts (as well as what you learned from your literature review) to better understand the causes of the problem(s) or issue(s). (Note: Use subheadings to identify each factor you address.)

Possible Solutions- Explore three solutions that could be appropriate ways to solve the identified problem or issue. Be sure these solutions are logical based on your analysis and that they each would effectively treat the problem, not the symptoms. Also, discuss the anticipated outcomes (both positive and negative) of implementing each of the possible solutions you identified.

Implementing the Solutions- Outline your recommended solution to the problem or issue, one of the alternatives explored in Section V, or a combination of those alternatives. State your solution clearly and specifically. Describe exactly what should be done and how it should be done, including by whom, with whom, and in what sequence. Here are some points to keep in mind as you write this section.

Have I indicated an awareness of the problem of implementation (the how aspect)?

Have I been specific enough? For example, a general solution might state, "The healthcare manager needs to realize that his or her style should match the situation."

A specific solution would state what style is most appropriate for the situation and how you will attempt to have the manager realize the appropriate style.

What aspects of the problem remain unresolved by my solution?

Does my recommended solution and implementation plan address the problem or issues and causes identified in the previous sections?

Does my solution consider and resolve the identified pros and cons?

How will I evaluate the effectiveness of the implemented recommended solution?

What process checks or procedures will I put in place to institutionalize the improvement?

Could my solution cause other problems or issues? What risks are inherent in the solution you recommend? What contingency plans do you recommend?

Assess the realism of your proposed action plan. For example, is there adequate time, money, or other resources for your solution? In addition, does your solution place too much reliance on other people being reasonable or what you think is reasonable?

Justification- Justify why your recommended solution and its implementation will solve the identified problem or issue in the organization or unit you selected. An important element of this section is to show very clearly how you applied course concepts to arrive at a workable solution and a successful implementation. support your conclusions with appropriately referenced facts, quotes, and readings; and be sure your justification addresses identified pros and cons.

References- All citations in the paper must appear in the reference list, and all references must be cited in the text of the paper. Choose references judiciously and cite them accurately. Citations of an author's work in the text documents your work, briefly identifies the source for readers, and enables readers to locate the source of information in the alphabetical reference list at the end of the paper.
