- Create an abstract (100-250 words) and a poster for a presentation with voice-over for a quality improvement plan to executive-level leadership.
Introduction - TOPIC- DIABETES MELLITUS
Note: Each assessment in this course builds on the work you completed in the previous assessment. Therefore, it is recommended that you complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented.
As a master’s-level nurse you will be responsible for promoting equitable quality of care. In the biopsychosocial model of care, there are a number of areas where you can have an impact on improving the quality, safety, and equitability of care. One example area where equitable quality of care is an issue is with medications, especially considering the cost of various medications to treat the same condition versus the effectiveness and potential side-effects of the medications. A further pharmacological concern for safe and quality care is medication errors. This could include considerations like a patient getting the wrong medication or a dangerous interaction due to other aspects of a patient’s health and treatment situation. An example could be vitamin or herbal supplements the patient has not disclosed as part of the medication reconciliation process.
The ability to propose and promote quality improvements in care is a vital skill for a master’s-prepared nurse. One aspect of this is understanding strategies for implementing best practice changes in a team, department, or care setting. Another is understanding how best practices can help lead to a continuous quality improvement cycle. Additionally, it is important to grasp how successful change strategies can be leveraged to help in the creation or implementation of clinical best practices. Part of this is considering the audience when proposing quality improvement projects or new best practices. Another part of this is being able to effectively communicate the goals, rationale, and benefits of a project.
One way to communicate the need for quality improvements, and your plans for achieving specific improvements, is through a presentation poster. This type of communication tool is used both in the work place and at professional and academic conferences. Being able to convey the essence and value of a project in a compelling and succinct way is a valuable skill, and it is vital within the constraints of a single poster.
Professional Context
As a master’s-level nurse, you will be responsible for promoting equitable quality of care. In the biopsychosocial (BPS) model of care, there are a number of areas where you can have an impact on improving the quality, safety, and equitability of care. One example area where equitable quality of care is an issue is with medications, especially considering the cost of various medications to treat the same condition versus the effectiveness and potential side-effects of the medications. A further pharmacological concern for safe and quality care is medication errors. This could include considerations like a patient getting the wrong medication or a dangerous interaction due to other aspects of a patient’s health and treatment situation. An example could be vitamin or herbal supplements the patient has not disclosed as part of the medication reconciliation process.
Scenario
For this assessment, you may take any number of approaches. Two suggestions are:- Build upon the clinical issue that was the focus of your Change Strategy and Implementation assessment, and turn it into a full, organization- or community-wide quality improvement (QI) initiative.
- Or, identify a new issue related to a BPS clinical issue. The focus here should be on a specific patient or health care setting
- As a master’s-level nurse, your specific focus is on reviewing the implications of the data relevant to the clinical issue you are trying to address. Once you research this, review the aggregate data, and understand the BPS considerations relevant to the clinical issue, you can suggest strategies for improving the quality, equitability, and safety of care around the issue. You should act as an advocate for the value and need to pursue quality improvements to leadership and executives, as well as be able to present potential projects to a wide range of colleagues and community stakeholders.

Abstract
The underdiagnosis and the undertreatment of comorbidities of chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) such as anxiety and depression are key issues in pulmonary care. Typically, primary care involves addressing physical health issues, such as COPD, which have a significant impact on patients. However, this does not adequately account for the overall well-being of patients. Anxiety and depression may have negative impact on patients’ quality of life and are likely to impede their ability to recover (Pooler & Beech, 2014). To address this, it is necessary to provide patients with access to mental health facilities. The change strategy proposed in this presentation is to provide cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) to patients by mental health professionals. Organizations could also train their nurses in CBT or hire nurses who are trained in CBT. The Deming Cycle, or the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle, could be used to evaluate the efficacy of the strategy. The PDCA cycle would ensure that the change strategy is adequately evaluated in terms of whether it improves patients’ quality of life and their ability to cope both mentally and physically with COPD, anxiety, and depression.

Quality Improvement Methods
The PDCA cycle is one of the tools used in quality improvement (Pietrzak & Paliszkiewicz, 2015).
Once an area of improvement is identified, it is necessary to provide a plan of action to enhance the outcomes in that area.
The plan of action would address the issue of insufficient care by providing COPD patients with adequate access to mental health facilities.
The next step is implementation. This is the “do” stage of the Deming Cycle. During this stage, it is necessary to execute the plan on a small scale to record its results and evaluate its efficacy.
The effects of the change implemented are then evaluated during the “check” stage of the PDCA cycle (Pietrzak & Paliszkiewicz, 2015). The key question to be asked at this stage is whether the change does what it purports to do. If it does, would the change positively affect patients’ recovery and capacity to self-manage their condition?
Based on the evaluation during the “check” stage, the quality improvement method is modified, and the cycle is repeated if the implemented change does not match the expected outcome. If the change proves to be effective, the quality improvement method is standardized and documented (Pietrzak & Paliszkiewicz, 2015).

In health care, quality improvement comprises continuous, combined efforts by
Abstract
Quality improvement methods are vital in treating biopsychosocial conditions. Diabetes is a chronic disease that requires follow-
up care to prevent comorbidities. With an increased population suffering from diabetes, mainly type 2 diabetes, traditional
treatments are ineffective, and a new treatment approach should be adopted. While this is deemed a plausible solution to curb the
increase of diabetes, research indicates that 70% of quality improvement initiatives fail within twelve months of implementation
(O’Donoghue et al., 2021). Therefore, stakeholders must follow proposed improvements methods closely to achieve meaningful
and sustainable change. To combat widespread chronic diseases such as diabetes, strategies such as self-management support,
intensified treatment, encouraged physical activity, and patient education plays a crucial role in managing a patient’s condition.
The disease heavily relies on one self-management abilities. The proposed strategies aim to achieve patient adherence to prevent
other health effects that can be otherwise be contained and ensure that mental distress often experienced by diabetes patients is
adequately dealt with.

Quality Improvement Methods
• The word “quality improvement” refers to the practice of enhancing
the intended outputs of an existing process. Typically, this would need
previous knowledge of the process and the areas that may be
improved.
• Once a problem has been identified, it is critical to develop a plan of
action to improve the outcomes in that area. Recent studies have
indicated the sufficient evidence-to-clinical practice gap in diabetes
care (Mukerji et al., 2019). Upon discovering this, several plans of
action are required to improve the gaps in care delivery towards
diabetes patients.
• While most providers concentrate on the physical aspect of the
patient’s health, research indicates that diabetes patients are often
affected by depression and diabetes distress ( Gary et al., 2019). This
results in underdiagnosis and undertreatment of diabetes patients,
which impedes pa
