This unwavering commitment requires \u00a0hospitals and care givers to increase their attention and adherence to \u00a0treatment protocols to improve patient outcomes. Health informatics, \u00a0along with new and improved technologies and procedures, are at the core \u00a0of virtually all quality improvement initiatives. The data gathered by \u00a0providers, along with process improvement models and recognized quality \u00a0benchmarks, are all part of a collaborative, continuing effort. As such, \u00a0it is essential that professional nurses are able to correctly \u00a0interpret, and effectively communicate information revealed on \u00a0dashboards that display critical care metrics.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/courserooma.capella.edu\/webapps\/blackboard\/content\/listContent.jsp?course_id=_214794_1&amp;content_id=_8112624_1&amp;mode=reset#\" rel=\"nofollow\">Show More<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/courserooma.capella.edu\/webapps\/blackboard\/content\/listContent.jsp?course_id=_214794_1&amp;content_id=_8112624_1&amp;mode=reset#\" rel=\"nofollow\">Toggle Drawer<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0Questions to Consider<br \/>\nAs you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think \u00a0about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your \u00a0viewpoint.

The QI initiative proposal will be based on an analysis of \u00a0dashboard metrics from a health care facility. You have one of two \u00a0options:<br \/>\nOption 1<br \/>\nIf you\u00a0<strong>have access<\/strong>\u00a0to dashboard metrics related to a QI initiative proposal of interest to you:<\/li>\n<li>Analyze data from the health care facility to identify a health \u00a0care issue or area of concern. You will need access to reports and data \u00a0related to care quality and patient safety. If you work in hospital \u00a0setting, contact the quality management department to obtain the data \u00a0you need.<\/li>\n<li>You will need to identify basic information about the health care \u00a0setting, size, and specific type of care delivery related to the topic \u00a0that you identify. You are expected to abide by HIPAA compliance \u00a0standards.<\/li>\n<li>Option 2<br \/>\nIf you\u00a0<strong>do not have access<\/strong>\u00a0to a dashboard or metrics related to a QI initiative proposal:<\/li>\n<li>You may use the hospital data set provided in the media piece \u00a0titled Vila Health: Data Analysis.
