Section 1. Planning (450 words)1. The main objective is to provide personalized care to the patients who have beenhospitalized. The nursing staff, clinicians, doctors and other health care professionals shouldprovide individual attention and deliver health care services to the patients. It involves puttingpatients and their family members in the centre that would lead to better outcomes. Thehealth care staff should respect the individual choice, culture, values and traditions of patientsand should provide proper treatment to manage their health condition. They should beexplained about the precautionary measures to be taken after the treatment and regularfollow-ups should be conducted after the surgery. The two safety standards researched inthis case are that the patients admitted in the ward should be hospitalized close to theworkstation of nursing staff and there should be appropriate level of co-ordination betweenthe hospital staff and the family members of the patients. They should make sure that thepatients feel comfortable and safe (Hoeve, Jansen & Roodbol, 2014). .But in the case of Mrs. Betty White, she was admitted in a 4 bed ward which was farfrom the workstation of the nursing staff. This deteriorated the condition of her health and thenursing staff was unaware about the same. It would have resulted in drastic health issues ifthe fellow patient of her who was admitted in the same ward had not called the nurses in theworkstation. The hospital staff did not contact Mrs. Betty’s daughter when her healthcondition got worsened.2. The main objective of The Patient Safety & Quality Committee in a health careorganization is to provide an excellent patient experience to all its patients.They keep a checkon the nurses and other hospital staff to make sure that they are performing their roles andresponsibilities in an efficient manner. There are several members in a Safety & QualityNSG3NCR Project Part B Template July 2017Page 1 of 7

Committee in a health care organisation such as Chief Quality and Patient Safety Officer,Chief Operating Officer,Chief Medical Officer, Chief Clinical Officer, Chief Health EquityOfficer, other representatives from population ,GME trainees, nurses, doctors, clinicians whoare dedicated to provide quality care to their patients.3. There are a few points to be conveyed to the audience to make sure that the patients whovisit any health care organization for a treatment are provided a personalized and quality care.Various initiatives and strategies should be taken in order to promote flexible health careservices to the patients and proper analysis ofthe symptoms of a health condition should bedone to avoid any adverse ill effects.The health care staff should be well trained to handledifferent types of patients and must make sure that the health services are accessible to all thepatients (Levett-Jones & Bourgeois, 2015). There should be no discrimination among patientson the basis of caste, religion, gender and socioeconomic status. They should be providedproper information about the treatment and the health issue and self-management supportfrom the nurses and the doctors. 4. The format I would like to choose for this case study is power point as it increases thevisual impact and improves the concentration of the audience. Power point presentationsinvolve interaction between the presentator and the audience and also promotes interest inlearning different things (Chiarella & White, 2013). 5. The method I would like to choose in order to evaluate that the message has been receivedand understood by the audience that is the safety committee is by using paper survey. A papersurvey involves questionnaires with a few options that should be answered by the audience. Ihave chosen this method because of the reason that many individuals who find themselvesquite uncomfortable in face to face discussion with the presentator (Levett-Jones &Bourgeois, 2015).They are unable to answer in a proper manner due to nervousness but canwrite their feed back if asked through a set of questionnaires.NSG3NCR Project Part B Template July 2017Page 2 of 7

Section 3. Seeking Feedback ( approximately 200 word)Studies conducted by researchers over the years have shown that balance exercisesand functional strength are helpful in reducing the risk of fall in senior citizens. It is alsonoticed by different researchers that the repetitive nature of these exercises remainsintricately associated with the inherent lack of progress. This discourages the seniors fromexercising at home, thereby proving it ineffective. Different journal articles are therebyproviding evidences that that multimodal games and visual feedback are two new methodsthat can be helpful. They provide successful results in encouraging adherence to homerehabilitation in comparison to standard care; this promotes independence and also improvesthe quality of life in older adults who remain at higher risk of falling (Blegen et al., 2012).Aneffective 'handoff' for risk of fall can be helpful in providing quality information of seamlesscare. This may involve communicating written information from one caregiver to another sothat important information of the patient's current condition as well as care or service needsare accurately communicated). SBAR is an effective tool which can be used forcommunicating between health care team mates. This can contain information about apatient's or resident's fall risk status .This will also contain the plan of care decided for thepatient. SBAR stands for:Situation: current risk status of the patientBackground: clinical background of the patient is noted or fall risk factors need to beidentifiedAssessment: current situation of the patient is identified or current risk condition ad differentfall precautions are also assessedRecommendation: current care planNSG3NCR Project Part B Template July 2017Page 3 of 7

Feedbacks can also be obtained from the patient as his or her view regarding the experienceduring the treatment and the possible loop holes which could be met diligently so that noincidence due to fall occurs.Section 4. Literature Review (1,000 words)The incidence of fall in different health care centers are found to have been noted for aboutthrice in comparison to that in the community which equals to rates of about 1.5 to 1.4 fallsper bed in one particular year.. The newly acquired risk factors associated with various formsof falls in the hospital settings (which may be due to hip fracture as well as stroke) and alsothe factor of unfamiliar surroundings – all may lead to an increased number of falls risk. Instroke rehabilitation wards, it is found that 25% to 46% of patients have faced fall at aminimum of one occasion during the time of their admission. It was reported that anincidence of 6.2 falls have been accounted for about per person in one annum in thedepartment and reabilation of psycho geriatry (Noe et al., 2015). There is significantmortality and morbidity which remains associated with falls in nursing care facilities andhospitals. Different statistical studies have shown that different healthcare centres have hugefaced huge number of falls which may account to about 70 in 1000 patients in a year. Theyalso report long bone fractures in 35 patients very 1000 persons and head injuries are alsoreported to be about 214 per 1000 persons in case of women and 433 in 1000 perosn in caseof men (Sherrington et al., 2014). Rates of hip fractures occurring due to falls in differentnursing health care facilities have been calculated to have reached a number of about 10.5times higher in comparison to that of the community which accounts to 42% of all hipfractures. Old aged people who have been seen to suffer from hip fracture during their stay inhospitals have resulted in poor outcomes when comparisons were done with age matchedcontrols who are experiencing same fractures in the community (Dinç & Gastmans, 2013).NSG3NCR Project Part B Template July 2017Page 4 of 7
