Part A – Problem Description
PROPOSED PROBLEM IS CARE MANAGEMENT
Write a paper of 500 words (not including the title page and reference page) on your proposed problem description for your Evidence Based Project. The paper should address the following:
1. Describe the background of the problem. Tell the story of the issue and why it deserves attention.
2. Identify the stakeholders/change agents. Who or what organizations are concerned about, may benefit from, or are affected by this proposal? List the interested parties, patients, learners, agencies, Joint Commission, etc.
3. Provide the PICOT question, using the provided “PICOT Template” resource.
4. State the purpose and project objectives in specific, realistic, and measurable terms. The objectives should address what is to be gained. This is a restatement of the question, providing focus. Measurements need to be taken before and after the evidence-based practice is introduced to identify the expected changes.
5. Provide supportive rationale that the problem or issue is an important one in health care to resolve using relevant professional literature sources.
6. Develop an initial reference list to ensure that there is adequate literature to support your evidence-based practice project. Follow the “Steps to an Efficient Search to Answer a Clinical Question” box in Chapter 3 of the textbook. Refer to the “Search Method Example” resource for the format in which to compile this data.
7. Include the “PICOT Template” as an appendix. (BE SURE TO GILL OUT THE TEMPLATE AND INCLUDED IT IN THE ASSIGNMENT)
The majority of references should be research articles. However, national sources such as Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), Department of Health and Human Resources (HHS), the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), or others may be used when you are gathering statistics to provide the rationale for the problem.
