Presentation by Caroline Walshe on Memory Assessment and Support Clinic - presented at the Nursing Showcase in 2016 at St Mary's Campus, Phoenix Park, Dublin
As humans we are prone to making mistakes and getting things wrong, which is part of our everyday nature. However, in healthcare human errors can often lead to incidents, which can be sources of inconvenience or sometimes major consequences that can directly affect our patients.
Human factors theory plays an important role in understanding how human behavior contributes to such errors, through our interaction with colleagues, equipment, systems, and the working environment. The theory forms an integral part of aviation safety and has also found its feet in other industries, including healthcare.
This presentation was presented at the Saudi Health 2014 International Nursing Conference and introduced the basic concepts of human factors theory in nursing. Case studies were used as examples to draw on the factors that contribute to issues of care, which directly affect patients. Interventions of how to address common human factors to minimize risks were also discussed.

Partial and Incremental PCMH Practice Transformation: Implications for Qualit...Paul Grundy
Experience of BCBS Michigan in Building medical homes
Based on the observed relationships for partial implementation,full implementation of the PCMH model is associated with a 3.5 percent higher quality composite score, a 5.1 percent higher preventive composite score, and $26.37 lower per member per month medical costs for adults. Full PCMH implementation is also associated with a 12.2 percent higher preventive composite score, but no reductions in costs for pediatric populations. Incremental improvements in PCMH model implementation yielded similar positive effects on quality of care for both adult and pediatric populations but were not associated with cost savings for either population.
Conclusions. Estimated effects of the PCMH model on quality and cost of care
appear to improve with the degree of PCMH implementation achieved and with incremental improvements in implementation.

Systematic Review Source
This is a systematic review abstract, a regular feature of the Annals' Evidence-Based Emergency Medicine (EBEM) series. Each features an abstract of a systematic review from the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews and a commentary by an emergency physician knowledgeable in the subject area.
The source for this systematic review abstract is: O'Brien MA, Freemantle N, Oxman AD, et al. Continuing education meetings and workshops: effects on professional practice and health care outcomes. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2001;(2):CD003030.
The Annals' EBEM editors helped prepare the abstract of this Cochrane systematic review, as well as the Evidence-Based Medicine Teaching Points.
Objective
To determine the effects of continuing educational meetings on professional practice and health care outcomes.
Data Sources
The Cochrane Effective Practice and Organization of Care Group specialized register, MEDLINE, and the Research and Development Resource Base in Continuing Medical Education were searched. The reference list of related systematic reviews and all articles obtained were reviewed. This review was amended in 2006 from the previous one published in 2001; a formal update is currently underway.
Study Selection
Studies were included if they were randomized controlled trials or nonequivalent group designs with nonrandom allocation. The participants of the studies were qualified health professionals or health professionals in postgraduate training (eg, resident physicians). Studies involving only undergraduate students were excluded. All types of educational activities were included (eg, meeting, conferences, lectures, workshop, seminar), and interventions were didactic, interactive, or a mixed didactic and interactive nature. Didactic intervention offered minimal participant interaction such as lectures or presentations; interactive interventions included role play, case discussion, or hands-on training in small (<10 people), moderate (10 to 19 people), or large (>19 people) participant groups. Only the studies that objectively measured health professional practice behavior or patient outcomes in the setting in which health care was provided were included.
Data Extraction
Two authors independently applied inclusion criteria, assessed the quality of each study, and extracted the data. Each study was then assigned a quality rating of protection against bias according to 3 criteria: study design, blinded outcome assessment, and completeness of follow-up. Studies were analyzed according to the type of intervention, subjective assessment of complexity of targeted behaviors, and the level of baseline compliance and protection against bias.
Main Results
Educational Meeting Versus No Intervention
Of the 32 studies with 35 comparisons between educational meeting and noninterventional control groups, 24 studies reported marked improvement in professional practice. There were statistically significant ...

Abstract
Objective This review investigated the effect of the various models of nursing care delivery using the diverse levels
of nurses on patient and nursing outcomes.
Methods All published studies that investigated patient and nursing outcomes were considered. Studies were
included if the nursing delivery models only included nurses with varying skill levels. A literature search was
performed using the following databases: Medline (1985–2011), CINAHL (1985–2011), EMBASE (1985 to current)
and the Cochrane Controlled Studies Register (Issue 3, 2011 of Cochrane Library). In addition, the reference lists of
relevant studies and conference proceedings were also scrutinised. Two reviewers independently assessed the
eligibility of the studies for inclusion in the review, the methodological quality and extracted details of eligible studies.
Data were analysed using the RevMan software (Nordic Cochrane Centre, Copenhagen, Denmark).
Results Fourteen studies were included in this review. The results reveal that implementation of the team nursing
model of care resulted in significantly decreased incidence of medication errors and adverse intravenous outcomes,
as well as lower pain scores among patients; however, there was no effect of this model of care on the incidence of
falls. Wards that used a hybrid model demonstrated significant improvement in quality of patient care, but no
difference in incidence of pressure areas or infection rates. There were no significant differences in nursing outcomes
relating to role clarity, job satisfaction and nurse absenteeism rates between any of the models of care.
Conclusions Based on the available evidence, a predominance of team nursing within the comparisons is
suggestive of its popularity. Patient outcomes, nurse satisfaction, absenteeism and role clarity/confusion did not differ
across model comparisons. Little benefit was found within primary nursing comparisons and the cost effectiveness
of team nursing over other models remains debatable. Nonetheless, team nursing does present a better model for
inexperienced staff to develop, a key aspect in units where skill mix or experience is diverse.

A few months ago I wrote an article entitled Unplanned Readmissions: Are They Quality Measures or Utilization Measures? It explained the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program (HRRP) that began in October 2012 as part of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). That article explained the program and its results over the past 5 years. However, more and more healthcare leaders and organizations are beginning to question whether HRRP is a valuable program or whether it is time to move on to something that focuses on quality of care and clinical outcomes, rather than cost savings. This article will address those issues. (In this article “readmissions” mean unplanned or preventable readmissions).

Discussion WK 9
The Role of the RN/APRN in Policy Evaluation
In the Module 4 Discussion, you considered how professional nurses can become involved in policy-making. A critical component of any policy design is evaluation of the results. How comfortable are you with the thought of becoming involved with such matters?
Some nurses may be hesitant to get involved with policy evaluation. The preference may be to focus on the care and well-being of their patients; some nurses may feel ill-equipped to enter the realm of policy and political activities. However, as you have examined previously, who better to advocate for patients and effective programs and polices than nurses? Already patient advocates in interactions with doctors and leadership, why not with government and regulatory agencies?
In this Discussion, you will reflect on the role of professional nurses in policy evaluation.
To Prepare:
· In the Module 4 Discussion, you considered how professional nurses can become involved in policy-making.
· Review the Resources and reflect on the role of professional nurses in policy evaluation.
By Day 3 of Week 9
Select an existing healthcare program or policy evaluation or choose one of interest to you.
Review community, state, or federal policy evaluation and reflect on the criteria used to measure the effectiveness of the program or policy described.
Post an evaluation topic and a brief description of the evaluation. Discuss how social determinants impact this issue.

Rethinking the Efficacy-to-Effectiveness Transition
I Russell E. Glasgow, PhD, Edward Lichtenstein, PhD, and Alfred C, Marcus, PhD
The gap between research and practice is well documented. We address one of the
underlying reasons for this gap: the assumption that effectiveness research naturally
and logically follows from successful efficacy research. These 2 research traditions
have evolved different methods and values; consequently, there are inherent differ-
ences between the characteristics of a successful efficacy intervention versus those of
an effectiveness one. Moderating factors that limit robustness across settings, popu-
lations, and intervention staff need to .

Executive Summary
Medication error being a systematic problem is not a new case. It is something that nurses and other healthcare providers have experienced. The error could be a result of recurring issues of just human error. It could also lead to more severe injuries where the patient could find themselves with a new condition such as itching rashes or skin problems that could either be temporary or permanent. These medication errors could even lead to death in some cases, significantly hurting the patient's family, especially when they know that the death of their loved one could have been prevented. It could make the healthcare provider responsible for the error start doubting themselves and start feeling guilty and ashamed for the action. It could even lead to depression throughout their life. If the deceased's family decides to file a lawsuit against the nurse or the one who was responsible, it could result in them losing their license. Medication errors can also impact the hospital where the healthcare provider is working, and patients even lose trust in the kind of treatment offered in that hospital. The occurrence of medication errors could cause the organization not to achieve its goals and objectives of providing quality care to patients for better results. Since human is to error, a medication error of not greater than 5% is allowed, but currently, it is at 39.5% (Barker et al. 2020)
As a nursing leader, I would recommend using various strategies to help minimize the occurrence of such medication errors in the future. The management should make it their responsibility to establish a safety culture and constantly report the current system and how it is performing. Healthcare providers should understand that humans are to error, and no one is to be blamed or receive a harsh form of punishment. The healthcare provider responsible for the medication error should acknowledge their mistake and report to the nursing leaders or the supervisor in charge to ensure patient safety before things get worse.
Nursing is a vital profession in the healthcare sector, mainly concerned with providing quality care to individuals and families. However, it has been discovered that there is a gap between the expected outcomes and the actual results. As a nursing leader, I will present the matter before other executive leaders to ensure care has been improved. Even though care is the primary concern of nurses, other healthcare providers should also work to ensure quality and safety outcomes. It is the responsibility of every individual in the organization. They should ensure to utilize evidence-based information and apply this knowledge to assess the ability of the entire organization to provide evidence-based care delivery. I will also look at systematic problems and specific medication e ...

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

The impact of nursing leadership on patient safety outcomes: a systematic review
1. The Impact of Nursing Leadership
on Patient Safety outcomes:
A Systematic Review.
Lisa Abraham
2. The aim of this
systematic review
was to describe the
findings of a
systematic review
of studies that
examine the
relationship
between nursing
leadership
practices and
patient safety
outcomes.
Aim
3. Methods: Systematic Review
Background
As healthcare faces an economic downturn, stressful
work environments, upcoming retirements of leaders
and projected workforce shortages, implementing
strategies to ensure effective leadership and optimal
patient outcomes are paramount.
However, surprisingly little is known about the actual
association between nursing leadership and the two
patient safety outcomes; medication error and patient
fall.
4. Primary
outcome
Evidence of positive
relationship between
Nursing leadership
and patient safety
outcomes-
medication errors
and patient falls.
• Measurement of different
leadership.
• Leadership styles and patient
outcomes in different heath
care settings.
• Relationship between nursing
leadership and (1) falls related
injuries and (2)complications.
Secondary outcomes
5. Results
A total of 12 studies satisfied the inclusion criteria
and were retained. Evidence of associations between
positive leadership behaviours, styles or practices and
reduced medication error, patient fall, and length of
stay were significant.
Findings relating leadership to fall related injuries
were inconclusive
6. Conclusion The findings highlighted a
key relationship between
nursing leadership and
the reduction of
medication errors and
patient fall, possibly
through processes such
as making changes in the
work context or
influencing staff
attitudes, behaviour or
performance that may
facilitate patient care.
