We are all responsible for qualityhealth care leadership, providers, volunteers, and yes, even patients and their families. An organization with high standards and a reputation for delivering quality patient care will inevitably have a culture that demands both professional and personal accountability. Failing to meet standards of care is detrimental to patient safety. The resulting repercussions may cause harm that reaches well beyond the individual to staff, management, and regulatory agencies.

In this discussion, describe a time when you witnessed another person on the interprofessional team not being accountable. Be sure to follow the requirements for initial postings found in the Faculty Expectations Message (FEM).

What were the effects?
What ethical course of action should have been initiated?
How did the facility respond?
How can the patient and the organization partner to develop safer care?

Simulation
DeYoung (2015) suggests that simulation exercises are categorized by their degree of fidelity, or how accurately the simulation mimics the real world. A simulation that has a low fidelity might include one that teaches laboratory skills, such as administration of an enema on a model. An intermediate fidelity might include a mannequin with heart sounds. A high-fidelity simulation might include a computerized mannequin that provides virtual physiological reactions.

For this discussion, you will design an intermediate- or high-fidelity simulation of a simple procedure or short-case scenario of your choice that includes decision-making and critical thinking skills. Be sure to include the following elements in your discussion:

A simulation plan that includes the objectives, complexity, cues needed, and debriefing.
A description of what you believe is the educator's role.

Professional nursing demands emotional intelligence in the five domains of emotional intelligence:  Emotional self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skill. 

Please also see attached article, 5 features of emotional intelligence, for more information on the domains of emotional intelligence.

For you which domain is the most developed and which is the least developed?  What steps can you take to address the domain that is least developed?


Utilize APA format for citations and references. You may use your textbook and/or journal articles for resources. Use at least two references.

At least 2 current (within past 5 years) professional (not patient-focused) peer-reviewed journal articles. 1 of these must be the latest clinical guidelines. Do not include patient-focused resources in your references.  Write your slides using professional terminology.  You are expected to include risk factors or causes, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, ways to prevent or slow progression, and key interprofessional collaboration (which other professionals ar eneeded other than nurses to help patients get better?) on a maximum of 11 slides (including references) with a minimum font of 18.  The last slide should be references. Cite your source(s) at the bottom of each slide using APA format.  Slide citations may be in a smaller font.

Write a critical analysis for the article provided
