WGU c361 Task1.docx C361 Evidence Based Practice and Applied Nursing Research – C361 Task 1 •Discuss the impact of a clinical practice problem on the patient(s) and the organization it affects. In todays healthcare system, handoff can be critical to safe and quality care for the patient. When report is given outside of the room, there can be a lapse in communication between nurses and even patients. Patients are unaware of their plan of care and how they can be more involved, also the nurse is not able to lay eyes on the patient to verify all the information being given to them. Effective and detailed communication between healthcare professionals can provide the patient and the oncoming healthcare professional with information on the patients current plan to continue adequate care. This way the patient is aware of how to be effective in their own plan of care, and the nurse and the patient both are aware of the next steps needing to take place in the patients care. 1. Identify the following PICO components of the clinical practice problem: • patient/population/problem (P) Bedside shift report among registered nurses • intervention (I) reporting handoff inside the patients room • comparison (C) bedside shift report vs. report outside of the patients room • outcome (O) to involve the patient in their plan of care and provide patients with safe and quality care. 2. Develop an evidence-based practice (EBP) question based on the clinical practice problem discussed in part A a. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . .. .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . .
