Describe how you would organize and lead project meetings, including the method you plan to use to reach consensus on meeting agendas.

 

Reducing wait times in the Emergency Room

Implementation Approach

A.  Evaluate your proposed HIP implementation approach by doing the following:

1.  Describe how you would organize and lead project meetings, including the method you plan to use to reach consensus on meeting agendas.

2.  Explain the process you would use to determine whether the organization had existing policies that could affect the proposed implementation of your project.

B.  Evaluate the approach you would use to create your action plan by doing the following:

1.  Submit a completed copy of the attached “Action Plan Template (Appendix H)”, which includes the following components:

•  “Action Item Owner Role or Title”
•  “Five Action Items (specific, high-level)”
•  “Phase Action Item Will Be Completed (e.g., pre-, during, or post-implementation)”
•  “Target Due Date”

2.  Explain how you plan to gather input related to the development of your action plan, including the method you would use to reach consensus from members of the project team.

C.  Describe the target population of your proposed HIP by doing the following:
1.  Describe the social determinants of health (SDOH) and sociodemographic characteristics of your target population.
2.  Explain how your proposed HIP would affect the target population.

D.  Evaluate the forces for and against the proposed implementation of your project by doing the following:

1.  Submit the “Force Field Analysis Template (Appendix I),” which you completed during your CPE, and that includes the following components:

•  three positive forces that may drive the proposed implementation of your project
•  three negative forces that may restrain the proposed implementation of your project

2.  Explain how each of the three positive forces and each of the three negative forces you identified in the “Force Field Analysis Template (Appendix I)” from part D1 will help you plan your proposed project implementation.

3.  Create strategies that may help you overcome each of the three negative forces that you identified in the “Force Field Analysis Template (Appendix I)” from part D1.

Project Schedule and Gantt Chart

E.  Describe the approach you would use to create your Gantt chart by doing the following:

1.  Submit the clearly visible screenshot of the Gantt chart (Appendix J), which you completed during your CPE, and that should include, at a minimum, each of the following fields or components:

•  “Tasks” (This field should list five primary-level HIP tasks.)
•  “Assigned to” (This field should include the initials of the person to whom each task is assigned. Please do not include actual names of people, only initials.)
•  “Progress” (This field should track the percentage complete for each task [e.g., 60% complete, 90% complete].)
•  “Start dates” (This field should track the start date of each task.)
•  “End dates” (This field should track the end date of each task.)
•  “Bar chart” (The bar chart should be a visual representation of the duration of each task.)

2.  Explain how you gathered information for the development of your Gantt chart.

Scope Statement
F.  Write a scope statement that includes detailed information on each of the following components:

•  project justification
•  1–2 project goals
•  2–3 deliverables
•  2–3 key performance indicators (KPIs)
•  project outcome statement

Communication Management Plan

G.  Create a communication management plan for your proposed project implementation by including detailed information on the following components:

•  intended receivers
•  context
•  communication outcomes
•  key messages
•  message medium

H.  Incorporate the following components of APA style and formatting into your HIP paper:

•  bias-free language
•  objectivity, credibility of sources, and evidence-based approach
•  APA-specific rules regarding verb tense, voice, and perspective
•  a title page and headers
•  APA-specific formatting rules for in-text citations and references, margins, spacing, numbering, and indentation for the title page, main body, and appendices of your HIP paper, including headers, bulleted and numbered lists, and tables and figures

I.  Demonstrate professional communication in the content and presentation of your submission.

Sections C1  – they are wanting a general description of the SDOH for the people who visit your organization.

C1. SDOH and Sociodemographic Characteristics

A discussion of the socioeconomic stability and environment of the target population is provided. The description of the social determinants of health is incomplete because each SDOH is not discussed.

E1. Screenshot of Gantt Chart (Appendix J)

A chart with nine tasks is evident in the document. A screenshot of a Gantt chart that includes all of the required components is not provided. (Please see excel attachment)

E2. Gantt Chart Information

Meeting with the team to review the tasks included on the Gantt chart is discussed. An explanation of how information was gathered for developing the Gantt chart that includes all key steps is incomplete.

F. Scope Statement

A concise statement is provided that includes reducing ED wait times as the purpose of the project, the deliverables, and the KPIs. The scope statement is incomplete because it does not discuss the project justification or project outcome statement.
