Clinical Project: Changes in Clinical Practice Guidelines (NSG3NCR)

This project, developed for a nursing course (NSG3NCR), examines the critical aspects of clinical practice guidelines (CPG) and their impact on healthcare quality. It explores the significance of implementing changes to CPGs to optimize patient care and align with safety standards. The project delves into the barriers and facilitators influencing these changes, such as information constraints, lack of coordination, and resistance to innovation, as well as consumer feedback, resource availability, and training. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of consumer partnership standards, emphasizing patient involvement in decision-making and care delivery. The project also discusses practical strategies for health organizations to implement these standards effectively, focusing on communication and staff training. The conclusion underscores the necessity of adapting clinical practices and integrating consumer partnerships to achieve high-quality healthcare outcomes. The project references relevant literature to support its arguments and findings.

INTRODUCTION
For delivering the quality health services to patients it is necessary for the
health organisations and professionals to follow the clinical practice
guidelines. The presentation will highlight the need of bringing changes and
innovations to these practices. It will also discuss the barriers and facilitator
for introducing changes to clinical practices. Further the presentation will
also describe the significance of national health safety and quality standard
of consumer partnership and how health organisations can implement it.

SIGNIFICANCE OF CHANGES IN
CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINES
(CPG)•CPG provides recommendations for optimizing the health benefits in
patient care.
•Clinical practice guidelines ensures that all clinical practices and
approaches are in accrodance with the standard of safe and quality
health standards.
•The regular monitoring and implementation of these standards helps
health authorities to identify the drawbacks in hospitals which affects
the quality of health services delivered to the patients and their carers.

BARRIERS AND FACILITATOR
OF CHANGES IN (CPG)
For sustaining the efficient health outcomes for the patients it is
necessary to implement innovations to CPG. The implementation of
changes is influenced by following factors.
Barriers :
• Information constraints make it difficult for the health-professionals
to implement the proposed changes.
• The lack of coordination between management and nurses results in
delay in brining innovations.
• The stubborn attitude of hospitals and clinics forces them to follow
old nursing approaches without bringing qualitative changes in their
practices.

Facilitators:
• Regular feedbacks and suggestions from the consumers
• Availability of resources make health organisations to bring
changes with positive attitude.
• Empowerment and training sessions for health service providers
about the latest development and requirements encourage them to
accept the changes in clinical practices.

STANDARD OF PARTNERING
WITH CONSUMER
• This standard provides mutual benefits to patients as well as to health-
professionals and organisations.
• Consumers are treated as partners and are actively involved in decision
making, planning, delivery and evaluation of health services.
• Patients participate in their own care and are well aware about all
policies and possible effects of the health services provided to them.
• Works on the prinicple that patient and carers have rights to know the
decisions related to their health and well being. Thus, health service
providers must involve them in the process.

IMPLEMENTING CONSUMER
PARTNERSHIP STANDARD WITHIN
HEALTH ORGANISATION
• The best way to implement this standard is
communication. Nurses must have knowledge
about the details of their patients.
• It must be their duty to give positive response
to the queries of carers and patients.
• If nurses will be trained properly and hospitals
would have monitoring systems to ensure that
patients are informed regarding the decisions
then this standard will be followed in clinical
practices.

CONCLUSION
From the report it can be concluded that changes in clinical practice are
necessary for achieving the goals of qualitative health services. When
clinical practices are accompanied with standard of consumer
partnership then, it will definitely meet the objectives of health care.
Thus, it is essential that health organisation must develop appropriate
strategy to implement changes in clinical practices.
