For this assessment, you will develop an 8-14 slide PowerPoint presentation with thorough speaker’s notes
designed for a hypothetical in-service session related to the safe medication administration improvement plan
you developed in Assessment 2.
As a practicing professional, you are likely to present educational in-services or training to staff pertaining to
quality improvement (QI) measures of safety improvement interventions. Such in-services and training
sessions should be presented in a creative and innovative manner to hold the audience’s attention and
promote knowledge acquisition and skill application that changes practice for the better. The teaching sessions
may include a presentation, audience participation via simulation or other interactive strategy, audiovisual
media, and participant learning evaluation.
The use of in-services and/or training sessions has positive implications for nursing practice by increasing staff
confidence when providing care to specific patient populations. It also allows for a safe and nonthreatening
environment where staff nurses can practice their skills prior to a real patient event. Participation in learning
sessions fosters a team approach, collaboration, patient safety, and greater patient satisfaction rates in the
health care environment (Patel Wright, 2018).
As you prepare to complete the assessment, consider the impact of in-service training on patient outcomes as
well as practice outcomes for staff nurses. Be sure to support your thoughts on the effectiveness of educating
and training staff to increase the quality of care provided to patients by examining the literature and established
best practices.
