Assignment Objectives:
• Students will extend their academic experience into areas of nursing practice
interest, working with new ideas, issues, organizations, and individuals.

Assignment Instructions:
The best approach to accomplish change must include a thoughtful analysis of the
problem. The first step in this analysis is to identify the problem and then answer several
questions that are useful in framing the problem:
1. What are the scope, duration, and history of the problem?
2. Who does it affect?
3. What data is available to describe the problem?
4. What are the implications of the problem?
5. How does/will your selected organization support your topic?
In the template below you will answer the questions above, outline your plan of action and
discuss a proposed solution. We realize that your plan of action may change as your
progress through your project. However, your problem and the framing of the problem will
not. Your answers should be based on your experience and supporting evidence. The
template below outlines critical parts of developing a plan of action. Be attentive to the
instructions and remember you are professional nurses; writing and thought processes
should be indicative of scholarly writing.
This week’s assignment is the first of five assignments to complete your Clinical Practice

Assignment Instructions:
The CP is the culminating academic endeavor of nursing students who earn a
baccalaureate degree in nursing from Ohio University. The project provides students with
the opportunity to explore a problem or issue of particular professional interest that is
somehow related to one of the following nursing QSEN competencies: patient-centered care,
teamwork/collaboration, evidence based practice, quality improvement, safety or
informatics (QSEN: http://www.qsen.org). Each of the QSEN competencies somehow link
to nursing excellence. You will actually implement your project during this seven-week
course. For your project you will need to:

patient education tool to prevent falls
2. Select a QSEN competency that relates to that problem. Example: Example: Safety
3. Select a health care organization that can help support your issue: Example: The CDC
4. Develop a global objective: Example: At the completion of this project I will have developed a
patient educational informational sheet to present to staff on 1-South to be distributed to all
patients on 1-South to improve the patient’s knowledge to prevent falls.
5. Develop at least four project objectives: Example:
a. Research current literature on the prevention of falls and patient educational material
content.
b. Develop a patient educational sheet on fall prevention.
c. Educate staff on use of the patient educational sheet.
d. Implement patient educational sheet and present this to at least ten patients on 1South to prevent falls.
6. Develop possible resources needed to help meet your goals/objectives.
a. Meet with unit manager and seek approval on project implementation.
b. Review the CDC web site for current references and resources on fall prevention.
