What is the PICO question? Does the use of a standardized bedside report versus board reporting help increase patient safety, nurse’s satisfaction and positive outcome?
Define each element of the question below:
P- (Patient, population, or problem): patients and nurses
I- (Intervention): bedside reporting
C- (Comparison with other treatment/current practice): bedside reporting
O- (Desired outcome): Increase in patient’s safety, satisfaction and outcome.
What is the practice issue/problem? Bedside reporting has been an issue in practice to this day. It serves as open communication between nurses at shift change, allowing nurses to exchange necessary patient information to ensure continuity of care and patient safety. It also allows the patient the ability to contribute to his or her plan of care. Most importantly, it allows the oncoming nurse an opportunity to meet, assess the patient and ask questions. Unfortunately, not all nurses are being compliant with this practice for that reason I chose this topic to help and encourage nurses the importance of bedside reporting.
Purpose: To find evidence to support an intervention that will change the outcomes.
Directions: Type your search question below. Find AT LEAST FOUR sources to support the need for change and the potential intervention you have selected to solve the problem. At least three of your sources must be peer-reviewed articles. The fourth source could be another peer-reviewed article or a reliable, credible source. Look in your text for ideas of other sources that can be used.
Using the table below, insert and describe your four chosen resources.
Step 1: APA Reference for the article. You will need to list the reference for the source in APA format. Be careful when using built-in APA formats and library citations. They may not be in APA format. Refer to Chapter 7 of your APA manual.
What tangible and intangible resources will be needed to implement your project?
What improved outcomes do you anticipate will occur that could indicate the project produced a successful return on investment (ROI) of these resources?
How will you communicate your plan for change with key decision-makers so that they will support the allocation of the resources you are seeking?
