Student one
Student one has done a commendable in the introduction by clearly setting the stage of
his workplace. This makes it possible for the reader to anticipate some of the quality standards
that are expected from the author. You have also gone an extra mile and introduced some of the
quality and safety practices that he has been practicing such as accurate data collection and
reporting to the correct agencies. Besides, you have also clearly stated how safety is maintained
at the hospital. You talk of the monthly reports that are titled Infection Prevention and Control
Monthly report. According to your post, the report is compiled and published by the Infection
Prevention Control department on a regular basis. You have also clearly illustrated maintenance
of safety in this case by not disclosing certain information from the report. In most cases, certain
information from within hospitals should be protected against unwarranted access. You have
done a good job mentioning such a valuable point. Your discussion is very informative and will
really assist the rest during their practice. As a nurse, I have learnt through your post that I
should always safeguard information within the hospital. In conclusion, I would say that am
really impressed with the quality of your work as it is in line with the instructions.
Student two
I really like your introduction since you have started by introducing the place of your
placement. You have also illustrated the emphasis of quality standards by demonstrating how
the clinic in which you were working was awarded with the level 3 status having satisfied the
laid down requirements to meet the required standards. You have gone an extra mile and
explained or rather listed some of the criteria for HEDIS. They include proper treatment of upper
respiratory tract diseases in children, screening of the post-partum depression, assessing the
statin use, completion of diabetic screening and assessing of immunization. You have also tried

to list some of the safety and quality standards that should be maintained in healthcare
organizations. On point two, you have captured the required information by listing the different
critical success factors which include supportive administration that implements programs that
are important to the clinics Nash et al. (2016). All along the discussion, you have been relevant
to the topic of discussion and that is good.
