"A basic principle of quality measurement is: If you can't measure it, you can't improve it" (Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, 2013).
Health care providers are on an endless quest to improve both care quality and patient safety. This unwavering commitment requires hospitals and care givers to increase their attention and adherence to treatment protocols to improve patient outcomes. Health informatics, along with new and improved technologies and procedures, are at the core of virtually all quality improvement initiatives. The data gathered by providers, along with process improvement models and recognized quality benchmarks, are all part of a collaborative, continuing effort. As such, it is essential that professional nurses are able to correctly interpret, and effectively communicate information revealed on dashboards that display critical care metrics.

Healthcare is an art and a science. What many in the industry don’t understand is that systems and processes can coexist with personalized care. Quality improvement methods can be as effective in healthcare as they have been in other industries (e.g., agriculture, manufacturing, etc.).
Quality improvement in healthcare is not just achievable, it’s an absolute necessity given the amount of wasteful spending in the U.S. on healthcare. Organizations can reduce this wasteful spending while improving their processes by applying these five guiding principles:
Facilitate adoption through hands-on improvement projects.
Define quality and get agreement.
Measure for improvement, not accountability.
Use a quality improvement framework and PDSA cycles.
Learn from variation in data.
By using these principles and starting small, organizations can quicken the pace of quality improvement in healthcare.

Deliver a 5–7-page analysis of an existing quality improvement initiative at your workplace. The QI initiative you choose to analyze should be related to specific disease, condition, or public health issue of personal or professional interest to you.
Too often, discussions about quality health care, care costs, and outcome measures take place in isolation—each group talking among themselves about results and enhancements. Because nurses are critical to the delivery of high-quality, efficient health care, it is essential that they develop the proficiency to review, evaluate performance reports, and be able to effectively communicate outcome measures related to quality initiatives. The nursing staff's perspective and the need to collaborate on quality care initiatives are fundamental to patient safety and positive institutional health care outcomes.

Healthcare is an art and a science. What many in the industry don’t understand is that systems and processes can coexist with personalized care. Quality improvement methods can be as effective in healthcare as they have been in other industries (e.g., agriculture, manufacturing, etc.).
Quality improvement in healthcare is not just achievable, it’s an absolute necessity given the amount of wasteful spending in the U.S. on healthcare. Organizations can reduce this wasteful spending while improving their processes by applying these five guiding principles:
Facilitate adoption through hands-on improvement projects.
Define quality and get agreement.
Measure for improvement, not accountability.
Use a quality improvement framework and PDSA cycles.
Learn from variation in data.
By using these principles and starting small, organizations can quicken the pace of quality improvement in healthcare.

Deliver a 5–7-page analysis of an existing quality improvement initiative at your workplace. The QI initiative you choose to analyze should be related to specific disease, condition, or public health issue of personal or professional interest to you.
Too often, discussions about quality health care, care costs, and outcome measures take place in isolation—each group talking among themselves about results and enhancements. Because nurses are critical to the delivery of high-quality, efficient health care, it is essential that they develop the proficiency to review, evaluate performance reports, and be able to effectively communicate outcome measures related to quality initiatives. The nursing staff's perspective and the need to collaborate on quality care initiatives are fundamental to patient safety and positive institutional health care outcomes.

KEYWORDS
Depression;
Mindfulness;
Tango dancing;
Psychological stress
Summary
Objectives: To determine whether tango dancing is as effective as mindfulness meditation in
reducing symptoms of psychological stress, anxiety and depression, and in promoting well-being.
Design: This study employed analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and multiple regression analysis.
Participants: Ninety-seven people with self-declared depression were randomised into tango
dance or mindfulness meditation classes, or to control/waiting-list.
Setting: classes were conducted in a venue suitable for both activities in the metropolitan area
of Sydney, Australia.
Interventions: Participants completed six-week programmes (1½ h/week of tango or medita-
tion). The outcome measures were assessed at pre-test and post-test.
Main outcome measures: Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale; The Self Esteem Scale; Satisfac-
tion with Life Scale, and Mindful Attention Awareness Scale.
Results: Sixty-six participants completed the program and were included in the statistical anal-
ysis. Depression levels were significantly reduced in the tango (effect size d = 0.50, p = .010),
and meditation groups (effect size d = 0.54, p = .025), relative to waiting-list controls. Stress
levels were significantly reduced only in the tango group (effect size d = 0.45, p = .022). Attend-
ing tango classes was a significant predictor for the increased levels of mindfulness R2 = .10,
adjusted R2 = .07, F (2,59) = 3.42, p = .039.
Conclusion: Mindfulness-meditation and tango dance could be effective complementary
adjuncts for the treatment of depression and/or inclusion in stress management programmes.
Subsequent trials are called to explore the therapeutic mechanisms involved.

Competitive Forces Analysis Group Assignment Do some research to.docx
Competitive Forces Analysis Group Assignment
Do some research to find an organization that is selling a product or a service. Using the Five Forces Model, write an analysis of how Information Technology/Information Systems (IT/IS) is or could impact EACH of the 5 forces (positively or negatively) in your chosen organization. For a richer analysis, feel free to discuss and reference any other strategic models or material from the text, but remember you MUST analyze the firm with respect to IT/IS and each of the forces. A grading rubric is also posted on BB along with these instructions.
Choose an organization that allows for a robust discussion. This includes firms you may know about or can find information about (via interviews, readings, research etc.).
This work should show that you clearly understand each of the forces, you understand how each force is impacting your organization, and you understand the role IT/IS either is having or could have with respect to each force.
You should be specific; general statements without examples or detail will not be well received. You may find that your firm is not using IT/IS to impact a particular force (as far as you can tell). Stretch yourself to come up with possibilities as to how they COULD use IT/IS for positive impact. Again, be specific. Do not simply say “they need an information system for customers.” Rather, be certain to describe what type of system (or functionality of the system) you would recommend and why this system would make a difference.
This is a formal paper and should be free of grammar, word usage, and sentence structure errors. The paper must be well organized and free of typos. All work MUST be cited in both a Works Cited page and inside the text. All group members should proofread the final draft CAREFULLY prior to submission.
No page length rule. Just get the job done – well. Each team member should contribute equally Please do not assign a different person to write sections of the paper and expect to just tie them together. This will lead to a fragmented paper and will not earn a solid grade. You should discuss the material (that each member contributes to) and come up with a cohesive product that flows well and meets all requirements.
YOU MUST SUBMIT PEER Review statements IN CLASS or Your grade will be drastically reduced if the review is NOT received. The reviews should follow the guidelines of the peer reviews that accompanied your previous group work.
A WELL DEVELOPED SUBMISSION should include the following material/discussions:
I. Introduction./Description of the Firm (This section is mainly devoted to facts about the firm to the “what”) its industry, its market, its competitive position (in general) including but not limited to the following: What kind of firm located where? i.e. medium sized manufacturing firm in the Midwest. What are their products/services or type of products/services? (what do they sell?)
