The document discusses the limitations of performance indicators in driving continuous improvement in healthcare systems. It summarizes research finding that quality of care initially improved for conditions tied to incentives but gains did not persist over time. Both clinicians and patients reported negatives impacts on relationship-centered care. The document advocates measuring key development indicators along with traditional metrics to better support staff capacity building and a balanced focus on quality, outcomes, relationships and learning. A more holistic approach is needed to unlock potential and achieve sustainable performance gains.

ITS IMPORTANT TO MEET THE COMPETENCES (That's how they evaluate the work).
Nursing within an organization is a critical component of health care delivery and is an essential ingredient in patient outcomes (Kelly & Tazbir, 2014). The concern for quality care that flows from evidence-based practice generates a desired outcome. Without these factors, a nurse cannot be an effective leader. It is important to lead not only from this position but from knowledge and expertise.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
Competency 2: Explain the accountability of the nurse leader for decisions that affect health care delivery and patient outcomes.
(IMPORTANT) -Describe accountability tools and procedures used to measure effectiveness.
Competency 3: Apply management strategies and best practices for health care finance, human resources, and materials allocation decisions to improve health care delivery and patient outcomes.
(IMPORTANT) -Develop an evidence-based plan for health care delivery.
Competency 4: Apply professional standards of moral, ethical, and legal conduct in professional practice.
(IMPORTANT) -Apply professional and legal standards in support of a care plan.
Competency 5: Communicate in manner that is consistent with the expectations of a nursing professional.

Instructions
Deliverable:
Develop an evidence-based plan for health care delivery.
Scenario:
The hospital where you work has an issue with increased readmissions within 30 days of discharge. After examining the core measures, it was found that heart failure was the most common core measure disease process experiencing the highest rate of readmissions. The leadership team has given your team the charge of developing a nurse-run outpatient heart failure clinic. The purpose of this clinic is to ensure that discharge education is presented to the patient in an orderly, consistent manner and complies with evidence-based practice protocols. Since these patients may be discharged from a variety of areas in the facility, having the heart failure clinic staff take ownership of the process will improve both consistency and compliance. There are cardiologists that interact with the staff and patients, but the day-to-day operations of the clinic are designed and supported by the nurses as they interact with appropriate members of the other health care team disciplines promoting the best care for the heart failure patients.
As a member of the nurse team, you have been asked to develop

Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

1. Do performance indicators improve performance?
2. Do they continuously improve performance?
3. What happens when performance isn’t improving? -

4. What are the underlying contributors to poor
performance? – are we measuring all the right
things?
5. What else should we be measuring?
3. Systematic review (94 studies included)
• Quality of care for incentivized conditions during the first year of the framework
improved at a faster rate than the pre-intervention trend and subsequently
returned to prior rates of improvement.
• Modest cost-effective reductions in mortality and hospital admissions in some
domains.
• Achievement for conditions outside the framework was lower initially and has
worsened in relative terms since inception.
• Some doctors reported improved data recording and teamwork, and nurses
enhanced specialist skills.
• Both groups believed that the person-centeredness of consultations and
continuity were negatively affected.
• Patients’ satisfaction with continuity declined, with little change in other
domains of patient experience.

Health gain was measured in expected lives saved in one year and in QALYS
• Evidence for lives saved or quality adjusted life years gained was found for 28
indicators accounting for 41% of the total incentive payments.
• No statistically significant associations were found between the expected
health gain and incentive gained from a marginal 1% increase in performance
in either the 2004 or 2006 version of the Framework
• no associations were found between the size of financial payment for
achievement of an indicator and the expected health gain at the performance
threshold for maximum payment measured in lives saved or quality adjusted
life years.
5. The Role of Performance Measurement
1. it drives improvement by enabling service users to make choices based on
quality measures which in turn creates an incentive for providers to improve
performance so as to attract more service users.
2. professionals have an intrinsic desire to improve performance when they are
made aware, through performance measurement, that there is potential for
improvement.
3. performance measurement drives improvement through comparing the
performance of individuals, teams or organisations resulting in a desire to
improve or maintain performance relative to others and the reliability of the
quality and safety of services that they provide. (p9)
