Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, FL (Biggest public health care hospital/sytem in south
Florida)• Explain one health disparity or social justice issue related to quality management
in today’s health care arena related to this hospital. (This is the issue chosen by me: As part
of Jackson Memorial Health System there is the Jackson Behavioral Health Hospital in
charge of treating psychiatric disorders across the whole age spectrum in the community.
As a nurse working in this facility I have noticed that beyond the wonderful community
service offer by Jackson, the length of state of the psychiatric patients is often too short, and
barely meaningful enough to stabilize their acute symptoms. I believe this has a lot to do
with insurance coverages (research!), then this patients end up being discharged back to
the community where the lack of structure, family , substance abuse dependency issues
and base line condition predispose them for a lack of compliance with the prescribed
medication regime, and at the end they relapse back to their acute symptoms and end up
coming back to the hospital very soon and frequently)• Analyze the problem, system, or
process to be improved ( Explained above in the previous paragraph in prentices)o AIDress
each of the following in your analysis: (The following bullets require reseach!)? Regulatory,
such as OSHA mandate? Benchmarking? Improved efficiency? Patient satisfaction? Life
safety issueMy improvement plan: (Planned solution)Create ambulatory psychiatric clinics
that also hold urgent care type capabilities to provide discharged patients with follow up
and medication supply and administration as a way to avoid relapsing on condition and
consequent inpatient readmission with acute psychiatric episodes back again.Stronger case
management interventions would be needed to coordinate continuity of care of the patients
in these clinics.(The following bullets are related with my planned solution stated above,
please research more in detail)• Analyze a change theory, and incorporate it into your
improvement plan.• Analyze personal leadership theory and style, and incorporate them
into your improvement plan.• Evaluate system changes needed to implement your planned
solution, including tools and technologies.• Create an implementation plan, including a
timeline, based on plan-do-study-act (PDSA/PDCA) cycle, including implementation
strategies ( stated above), potential barriers(budget to create and maintain these clinics
despite of Jackson being a public health system, insurance coverage ,etc) , and evaluation
process.Include at least five peer-reviewed references to your research.Format your paper
according to APA guidelines
