Adverse Event Reporting

Read Chapters 5, 6, and 7 in our textbook. After reviewing this week’s required reading, consider the following scenario: 

You are the lead of the risk management team that has been assigned to evaluate an incident that has occurred. You will be preparing a report for the CEO of the hospital that includes all system failures that contributed to the adverse event as well as utilizing a CQI tool. 

You will be using the Adverse Event Template here > HCA375_Adverse Event Template.doc  to complete the three parts to the assignment. Note: If you have responded substantively to each of the content items within the three parts of the assignment, the paper should be between six and seven pages.

 Attached is the table that you will need to reference. 

Week 4 Assignment Reference Table.docx 

Part One: Description of Adverse Event (Complete Part One of the Adverse Event template)

  • Choose an adverse event from the following list:
    • Medication error
    • Patient falls
    • Post-operative hemorrhage
      • Data – Patient Safety Event For XYZ Hospital for 20XX through 20YY

  • Note: The number of beds and operating rooms increased effective 1/1/20YY.
  • Describe the adverse event, including who was involved in the event.
  • For your selected adverse event, graph the data for the two years. Analyze the data by determining if the frequency is increasing or decreasing. What factors could be attributed to the change?
  • Discuss the communication techniques/methods utilized to inform the staff of the adverse event.
  • Describe at least two operational or safety processes that might not have been followed that contributed or caused this event to take place. For instance, describe any regulations or procedures that the professional organization and/or accrediting agency measures compliance with the standard.
  • Graph two years of data for your selected adverse event and analyze the data by determining if the frequency is increasing or decreasing.
  • What factors could attribute to the change in data over two years?
  • Summarize the historical and contemporary issues and legal implications related to patient safety in your chosen adverse event.
  • Describe how processes of continuous quality monitoring could impact the adverse event you chose.

Part Two: CQI Tool (Complete Part Two of the 
Adverse Event template)

Choose a CQI Tool that best suits your chosen Adverse Event from the following list:

  • Flowchart
  • Fishbone Diagram (Cause & Effect)
  • Pareto

Use the CQI Tool to illustrate the use of the tool with your chosen adverse event. You will be responsible for creating the CQI Tool, completing the tool, taking a screenshot, and copying/pasting the screenshot under the instructions in Part Two CQI Tool in the 
Adverse Event template.

Part Three: Future Prevention (Complete Part Three of the 
Adverse Event template) 

After describing the event in Part One and using a CQI tool in Part Two, apply the PDCA model to summarize the process and steps that your team would recommend to the CEO to prevent this adverse event from reoccurring. Make sure to include who (health care personnel) would be accountable at each step of the process. Complete the Explanation column in Part 3 of the Adverse Event template.

It is important to keep in mind that some processes require a checks and balance system. You will need to determine if one of the steps you are recommending would require a checks and balance step and why it is necessary.

UOPX Provide a Summary of A Current Law or Regulation that Impacted Lifespan Management

/in /by

First Write a 175- to 265-word response to the following:Provide a summary of a current law or regulation that impacted lifespan management. How did it influence the facility and patients? Provide details.

Then:

Read and respond to the two discussion posts below. Be constructive and professional with your thoughts, feedback, or suggestions.

1.The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) protects individuals health information. An individuals name, social security number, date of birth, address, health or mental conditions in the past or present, admissions, treatments and procedures, and billing and payment information cannot be shared with people who are not involved in the patients care. Information can be shared for treatment and care coordination, for billing and payment to doctors and hospitals, with family members, friends, or those who have been identified by the patient, with regulatory bodies that ensure appropriate care, with agencies in order to protect the public (contagious diseases), and with the police.

This requires facilities to provide HIPPA training for its staff. Patients information is now more confidentiality. However HIPPA has unintentionally created challenges. Professionals sometimes have problems with release of patient information. More clarification of the law and standardized instructions is needed.

2.A current regulation that has impacted lifespan management is the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH Act. President Obama signed HITECH into law on February 17, 2009 as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), an economic stimulus bill. This act is important because it forces healthcare providers, merchants, and caregivers to implement a tougher access to security. It helps protect patient data which can avoid million dollar fines. This act cut down the cost of healthcare by changing the way protected health information was shared by doctors, hospitals, and anyone else using an electronic system. Healthcare providers were given financial incentives for being able to demonstrate meaningful use of electronic health records. If the Act was not passed, many healthcare providers would still be using paper records causing their patients information to be at risk. The HITECH Act helped facilities and patients with privacy and security with using computerized systems. The facility has to let patients know that if their information was compromised. This puts pressure on the facilities because leaked personal information can bring fines. Patients also can feel at ease knowing that there are security measures protecting their health information.

Advocating for Victim Services, assignment help

/in /by

Application: Advocating for Victim Services

Only about 9% of serious violent crime victims received direct assistance in terms of help or advice from a victim service agency from 1993 to 2009 (U.S. Department of Justice, 2011). Although social scientists and mental health professionals have done a great deal of work to identify victims’ needs and develop treatment strategies, in the majority of victimization cases no services are provided, either because they are not available or the victim does not seek help.

This week you assessed the needs of victims and researched services that might help their situation. The next step is for you to write a letter to your governor or local lawmakers, articulating those needs and services to policy makers in such a way that they can and will develop a plan of action to make modern victim services a reality. You can use real life examples of victim’s sufferings, a cost benefit model, or both, but your letter should make a convincing case on behalf of victims.

For this Assignment, consider your response to the Discussion this week. Then locate the two sample letters in the Learning Resources and consider the most effective arguments you can use to persuade lawmakers to support victim services.

The Assignment (2–3 pages):

  • Explain the services currently available in your state for the victim you selected in the Discussion.
  • Explain services not available in your state that might be beneficial for the victim, or recommend revisions or enhancements to existing services.
  • Using the sample provided, create a letter to the governor of your state or local lawmakers explaining what services should be available and explain why.

The ACA: The Uninsured Population in the U.S.

/in /by

Hernandez, Fornos, Mika, Urbanksy, and Villarreal (2009) reported the following:

“Lack of health insurance has detrimental effects on the health and well-being of people and creates financial pressure on health care institutions. Uninsured adults are more likely to postpone health care and are less able to afford prescription drugs or follow through with recommended treatments than the insured. The consequences to reduced access to care can be severe, particularly when preventable conditions go untreated.”

O’Neil and O’Neil (2009) also published a comprehensive study in which they arrive at the following conclusion:

“We find as have others, that lack of health insurance is not likely to be the major factor causing higher mortality rates among the uninsured. The uninsured—particularly the involuntarily uninsured—have multiple disadvantages that in themselves are associated with poor health.”
