Project Methods for Implementing an Evidence-Based Practice Change in a Primary Care Setting
Introduction
The purpose of this project is to implement an evidence-based practice change in a primary care setting to improve the management of chronic diseases, specifically hypertension and diabetes.
Section III:
Submit the following section to DNP project faculty advisor (Blackboard):
• Project Methods- (~ 4-6 paragraphs) Detailed discussion of the plan for conducting the project. Introduce the project with broad overview including the site and population. Must be in APA format and include reference listing. • Project Site Include description of site/ facility, location of project. Consider setting and context. • Target Population
• Design Indicate the design you plan to use (it could be pre-posttest design, posttest only) and the translational or management framework that will guide your project. • Project Plan (A step-by-step plan of what the project will entail. Write in a way that the project could be replicated.)
• Inputs: The resources that go into a program (including community partners, budget, personnel, potential team members, other resources….). Keep in mind that budget costs should include direct, indirect, and in-kind costs for the project. This should include cost for your project time as the project director. Please include table for budget and summarize in the narrative. • Outputs: The activities the program undertakes. What are the key project activities. Do not confuse this with evaluation plan. That is separate (see below). • Timeline: (Recommend use of a figure/Gantt chart) to illustrate and then discuss briefly in narrative. • Measures: Write about how you intend to evaluate each objective. Make sure measures align with the objectives. If you are using a survey, state the reliability (with Cronbach’s alpha) and validity of the instrument. Attach a copy of the instrument. (Make sure you obtain permission to use the instrument, if needed, and state this in the proposal). Be sure to note if using organization’s internal database, reports, or dashboard. • Data Analysis/ Evaluation Plan
Write a paragraph about what statistical software program and statistical tests will be employed to examine for change (if applicable). Align this with your objectives/ measures- how will you evaluate each one. • Outcomes: The changes or benefits that you expect. This should include specific program outputs, demographic information, and program evaluation components such as anticipated health outcomes expected as a result of the program. Be sure that each expected outcome reported aligns with the project objectives.
• Plan for Sustainability: Note how your project involves a sustainable practice change that will be sustained even when you leave. Describe how the system, policy or process is modified to facilitate the adoption of the practice improvement initiative. • Contingency Plan: Describe your plan A, B, and C (backup plan) in case your initial plan is not feasible. • Impact on Practice and Policy: Potential Practice & Policy Implications- Consider how might this project impact practice and policy decisions… how might it help/impact others? Consider implications from some of the following perspectives- unit-based, organization wide, system wide, other settings (e.g., institutions, global.,)
• Summary/Conclusion (~1 paragraph)- Summarize the essence of your project proposal supporting discussion with evidence to strengthen the discussion. Focus on how using this evidence-based approach to address the practice problem has the potential to solve/ address the practice issue in this particular setting.
• References in APA format (See Purdue Owl website for APA sample paper examples, no abbreviating journal titles)
