 Nursing Rounding Reduce Patient Falls

The Plan-Do-Study/Check-Act (PDSA or PDCA) cycle is useful to apply in projects to improve patient safety and quality. You will add to your quality improvement project by describing a PDSA cycle. (ACUTE CARE FACILITY)

Thinking about the goals and timeline you developed in Module Six, and considering major challenges in healthcare and how they can be improved, identify a patient safety or a patient quality issue (such as falls, infections, interdepartmental communications, etc.) and use the Plan-Do-Study/Check-Act (PDSA/CA) tool to describe the steps you would take for the issue you identified. Write your PDSA/CA cycle in narrative format using the Module Seven Short Paper Template. However, you may find the PDSA/CA table below helpful in outlining the ideas for your paper prior to writing it: PDSA/CA Table Cycle Step Activities Time Frame To Complete (months, quarters, or years) Plan Do Study/ Check Act Rubric Guidelines for Submission: Your short paper should be a submitted as a 3- to 4-page Microsoft Word document (in addition to title and reference pages) with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, one-inch margins, and sources cited in APA format. 7th Edition
