Business Plan: EBD Model

Evidence-Based Design (EBD) model promotes the building of an environment that is a powerful force in inpatient care since it brings efficiency. This assignment aims at enhancing learning skills, visions, and perspectives regarding the healthcare system as well as promoting communication, expression of thoughts, and ideas on the EBD model in the healthcare environment. This aim reflects the level of understanding of the effectiveness of improved decision-making and patient education through the use of the EBD model compared to conventional approaches in reducing pain among people with diabetes though enhanced professional interactions. This business plan on the EBD model on reducing pain gives a roadmap to the model’s implementation through running an organization with a cohesive vision. It includes the project’s financial plan, breaking-even analysis, cost-benefit analysis, development, and implementation budget.

Address of a receiver

Dear Mr./Ms./Dr.

I am glad to enclose the institution’s business plan for the EBD model project. Inside, there is adequate information about the project, a thorough opportunities assessment in reducing pain through enhanced professional interactions. The current conventional approaches used are ineffective in pain reduction, thus a need to adopt the EBD model to improve the outcomes. The project creates a blueprint for a growing diabetes treatment outcome. NR533 Wk7 -B Project Paper

The project emphasizes making things work and work well to make a difference in reducing pain. It does not matter whether the model is solving an existing problem or filling a need, building a bridge, or establishing a new system that does a job better, more comfortable, and faster. After an in-depth analysis of the project, integrating it with the current care system, enable the institution to:

· Increase diabetes intervention awareness

· Streamline approaches of reducing a burden of pain

· Target new diabetes patients, including untapped local base

· Increase efficiency in treatment

The achievement of a successful project implementation requires the institution’s management to set out the standards with which the project process can comply (ergonomics, density, and norms for health). These set standards must display clear sociotechnical regulations and principles to keep the project development and implementation process on the right track.

I look forward to working together to facilitate the implementation of the project. I would like to hear your views and respond any questions you may have concerning the EBD model project.

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Yahima Montero.

 

Executive Summary

EBD model is applied in healthcare design and beyond to provide evidence in multidisciplinary practice where the design solutions have measurable outcomes. The project outcome is the reduced burden of pain among people living with diabetes. The main expectation upon the implementation of the EBD model project is the reduction of the pressure mounting on nurses and doctors in reducing pain treating diabetes. Practitioners require the academy to learn more about EBD. Stakeholders will get an exposure to various intervention approaches within and beyond this project that depends on an evidence-based approach, know any of their progress towards EBD adoption. Practitioners can determine a personal viewpoint on EBD. The project will enable dieticians, doctors, nurses, and nurse educators to identify the problem, solve the issue, generate a solution, and test theory to adequately practice an EBD-approach that leads in solutions that enhance human behavior relationships and demonstrate the design’s value. Healthcare outcomes’ improvements drive the implementation of the project. Increasingly, most of the institution’s competitors are going for EBD models to increase efficiency. The project appeals to patients with diabetes desire for reasonable costs. The projection of the EBD model project is $275, 000. NR533 Wk7 -B Project Paper

 

Abstract

Description of the Project Purpose

EBD model contains a series of guides founded on a methodological framework that provides practical guidance and assessment of approaches to reducing the burden of pain among people living with diabetes. These guides target improved decision-making and diabetes patient education and take a practical, step-by-step technique that uses evidence-based examples. With the EBD model, the estimates of reducing the burden of pain are both comparable and reliable.

The Problem and Supportive Evidence

Ineffective approached in reducing the burden of pain have led to inefficiency in health outcomes. Due to incompetence, there is an increased number of diabetes patients’ readmission, substantial costs, and a lack of prioritization of actions. Cleveland Clinic Foundation’s Avon Hospital has used the EBD model in its new patient room to improve the patient experience (Jazayeri, 2019). Improvements cover areas of safety and shortening of the length of stay.

Expected Project’s Outcome and Timeline

With the full implementation of the project, dieticians, doctors, nurses, and nurse educators can identify the problem, solve the issue, generate a solution, and test theory to adequately practice an EBD-approach. This approach leads to efficient solutions that enhance patient behavior relationships and demonstrate the design’s value. It is a seven-month project whose completion is early September 2020. NR533 Wk7 -B Project Paper

Marketing or Needs Analyses and Plans

The project focuses on meeting the demand for reducing the burden of pain among people with diabetes. In the current healthcare market, EBD is growing beyond the industry, hence a need for making critical decisions based on a data-informed approach. The diabetes care market needs a model that focuses on evident principles to measure and monitor efficiency and meeting diabetes care demand. Previous methods such as convention have not met the requirement, hence creating a business gap and opportunity for development and implementation of the EBD model to fill the gap. The project team will define, find, interpret, create, hypothesize, collect, monitor, and measure the project (Adler, 2020). In defining step, there is the establishment and articulation of a vision that defines the direction and intentions, of the project. The finding involves the identification of gap knowledge and determination of already performed projects. The research of literature will include interpretation of whether the evidence is credible and can inform the model project as well as the project’s hypotheses. After the interpretation, create steps follows and encompasses the translation of relevant evidence into the project’s guidelines for guiding the decision-making process and the creation of preliminary design concepts. In hypothesizing, predictions of the expected relationship between variables is tested as well as pointing out the direction for gathering data and analysis (Larsson, 2020). After hypothesizing, evaluation of current processes at macro levels as well as defining the EBD model’s metrics follows. Then ensuring the project’s strategies are executed as specified in project documents and comply with the outlined plan. The last method is measuring in which project manager tracks changes and makes essential adjustments for achieving the overall project goal.

Project and an Organization’s Mission

The institution’s mission is to inspire hope and impact health by offering the best healthcare to patients; the EBD model works at integrating clinical practice, education, and research to realize this mission. The current institution’s services aim at reducing cardiovascular risk resulting from diabetes. Services include addressing blood pressure, lipid control, combating smoking, managing weight, and physical activity. NR533 Wk7 -B Project Paper

Financial Plan

The project covers these services for further improvements. The project needs $275,000 to finance the development and implementation steps. The raise of this amount involves one-year loan of $175,000 from SQD bank. A budget for contracting experts (2), consultants (1), paying staff (dieticians, nurse educators, nurses, doctors), and procuring essential equipment and tools for project development and implementation.

Financial Impact on Stakeholders

The organization will witness reduced revenues since most of the money funds the project processes, such as hiring experts and consultants. Patients will have lowered costs since the project aims at introducing efficiencies. Efficiency in healthcare reduces cost reduction since patients will no longer pay more for more extended stays. As a result of increased improved decision-making and patient education, better services mean patient visits go down as well as minimized emergency department admissions. So, the expenditure in the Unit of Service decreases (Currivan, Takeshita, Goebert, & Fleming, 2019). The community benefits from increased income since crucial stakeholders such as consultants and expertise come from the community members. Also, the community sells material, tools, and equipment for use in project development and implementation. NR533 Wk7 -B Project Paper

Break-even Analysis and Cost-Benefit Analysis

At some point, the project will have its total fixed and variable cost equal to total revenues (Richards, 2020). This point means the project will not bring either profits or losses in the organization; hence there is an easy determination of the required units to cover fixed and variable expenses resulting from the project. Project’s 10,000 units will bring a break-even point at $120,000. In a cost-benefit analysis, the project will have a sum of benefits totaling $290,00 with a sum of costs of $272,500.

Conclusion

The plan covers the prevalent issue in reducing pain and explores the EBD model as a practical approach for improved decision-making and patient education compared to a conventional method. The project identifies the problem as inefficiency in reducing the burden of pain among patients with diabetes while offering the implementation of the model as a solution to improved healthcare outcomes. The plan identifies critical inputs for project development and implementation, such as consultants, experts, nurses, nurse educators, dieticians, and doctors, together with the budget for the entire project. The availability of dieticians, nurses, and doctors form the strengths of the plan. On the other hand, external consultants and experts for project development are crucial opportunities for the program. The plan for seeking project approval starts with a request letter for approval, then submission of pre-view to the management. Once the accepted pre-view is approved, the presentation of the final review follows. NR533 Wk7 -B Project Paper

SCORE A+ WITH HELP FROM OUR PROFESSIONAL WRITERS – NR533 Wk7 -B Project Paper

We will process your orders through multiple stages and checks to ensure that what we are delivering to you, in the end, is something that is precise as you envisioned it. All of our essay writing service products are 100% original, ensuring that there is no plagiarism in them. The sources are well-researched and cited so it is interesting. Our goal is to help as many students as possible with their assignments, i.e. our prices are affordable and services premium.

• Discussion Questions (DQ)

Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, including a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words. Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source. One or two-sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words. I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses.

• Weekly Participation

Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately. In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies. Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work). Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.

• APA Format and Writing Quality

Familiarize yourself with the APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in Loud-cloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required). Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation. I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.

• Use of Direct Quotes

I discourage over-utilization of direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Master’s level and deduct points accordingly. As Masters’ level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content. It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source.

• LopesWrite Policy

For assignments that need to be submitted to Lopes Write, please be sure you have received your report and Similarity Index (SI) percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me. Once you have received your report, please review it. This report will show you grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to review instead of getting counted off for these mistakes. Review your similarities. Did you forget to cite something? Did you not paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of someone else’s thoughts more than your own? Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in Loud-cloud for tips on improving your paper and SI score. NR533 Wk7 -B Project Paper

• Late Policy

The university’s policy on late assignments is a 10% penalty PER DAY LATE. This also applies to late DQ replies. Please communicate with me if you anticipate having to submit an assignment late. I am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may be able to work out an extension based on extenuating circumstances. If you do not communicate with me before submitting an assignment late, the GCU late policy will be in effect. I do not accept assignments that are two or more weeks late unless we have worked out an extension. As per policy, no assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any assignment submitted after midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for grading.

• Communication

Communication is so very important. There are multiple ways to communicate with me: Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class. Individual Forum: This is a private forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24 hours.
