Identify a quality improvement opportunity in your organization or practice. In a paper, describe the problem or
issue and propose a quality improvement initiative based on evidence-based practice. Apply “The Road to
Evidence-Based Practice” process, illustrated in Chapter 4 of your textbook, to create your proposal.
Include the following:
Provide an overview of the problem and the setting in which the problem or issue occurs.
Explain why a quality improvement initiative is needed in this area and the expected outcome.
Discuss how the results of previous research demonstrate support for the quality improvement initiative and its
projected outcomes. Include a minimum of three peer-reviewed sources published within the last 5 years, not
included in the course materials or textbook, that establish evidence in support of the quality improvement
proposed.
Discuss steps necessary to implement the quality improvement initiative. Provide evidence and rationale to
support your answer.
Explain how the quality improvement initiative will be evaluated to determine whether there was improvement.
Support your explanation by identifying the variables, hypothesis test, and statistical test that you would need
to prove that the quality improvement initiative succeeded.
