Hi Shavonte, Thank you for reaching out. Yes this sounds like this is correct although there is no record with my insurance agency regarding the accident from Avis therefore I not have a definitive amount. My insurance agency is claiming that the company the car was rented under would be responsible for the coverage of the damages. Please let me know if they is anything else I can do or if you need any further information! Thanks again for all of your help.…

I was intrigued by Harold Gilkey’s insight on resistance to change. You can clearly identify their resistance to change when they’re unwilling to give up something they know how to do very well. The best example I can give you of that is that the staff say I can do that faster rather than train somebody else to do it. And then they continue to do it for the next five years or next three months whatever the time frame you want to put on it. Their unwilling to train the next one because they like doing it.…
Hi Abass, Thank you for your post. I agree with you in regards to what you wrote that “If the instrument do not adequately measure the concepts or lack the validity and reliability, the study may be invalid.” I was reading a few examples and I came across one that explains reliability and validity goes hand in hand. The example that stood out for me was a customer named Joe who goes to the ice cream shop every day after work at 5pm. By 5:05pm, he gets his milkshake and he swears by it that it’s the best milkshake he ever tasted.…
Hi Dorcas, I thought it may probably be convenient to add your comments into this version of the accountability baseline report that already has the comment of Dakoa and I. However, in case you’ve already put your comments in another version, I could picked and integrate them into this version.…
Hi Iris, Yesterday your client came in at 2:30 because she was told by you that her apt. was change to 3:00PM. She was really upset because Dr. K couldn’t see her at 2:30 or 3 because he had other clients waiting. She missed her apt at 2:00PM. Dr. K was able to fit her in his schedule but Cynthia’s client was upset because she took her slot.…

How can employers remain in good conditions for a successful change process? And what can employees do to get through it? Human beings, by nature, do tend to dislike change and fight it strongly. The whole process can be very stressful to employees and bad emotions or reactions could be…
Resolution of Problem Redundant documentation is a problem that is associate with the implementation of the electronic health records (EHRs). According to Zhang, Youngblood, Murphy, Ramsay, and Xiao (2012), redundant documentation of data can be characterized as same-data and correlated data. The authors referred to same-data as duplicated or replicated data and correlated data as derivative or supplemental data. This can be very frustrating for both the nurses and the patients, but especially the patients who have to answer the same question several times from multiple health care providers. Health care providers sees this problem as an issue that increases nurses’ workload, decreases time spent with the patients, and pose a potential…
I think your project with the use of the Finnegan Neonatal Abstinence Scoring Tool (FNAST) in the treatment of drug exposed infants, and the evaluation of this tool with nurses in NICU, as an effective and consistent tool to provide the best possible care to infants with actual or potential NAS is a great one. I think you made a good choice in the use of Kurt Lewin’s Change Theory. This theory is thought to work well with human systems that require prior learning to prohibited and replaced (Current Nursing, 2011). The theory is a simple one with three phases unfreezing, change and refreezing.…
The final stage of Lewin’s model of change, refreezing, focuses on maintaining the implemented change over a long period of time (Yoder- Wise, 2011). Lewin suggests that reinforcement of the new change along with rewarding positive behavior and providing positive feedback on the change may assist with the maintenance of the intervention (Yoder- Wise, 2011). A series of surveys about the change will be provided to nurses throughout the process of implementing the standardized template for end-of-shift handovers. Additionally, a suggestion box will remain present within the break room of each floor to allow for feedback from staff on the project. As the project progresses and data continues to be collected throughout the implementation of the employment of the SBAR formatted, standardized template, the progress of the project will be displayed within the break rooms.…
As healthcare continues to grow, so will organizational structure, policy, interventions, frameworks, programs which is necessary to facilitate desired outcomes (Shirey, 2013). Some nurses will resist change, some assume that change is a negative chain of events while the truth is change is imperative in healthcare. Lewin’s Theory of Planned Change is as a strategic resource to capture the human beings fundamental aspect of change furthermore pinpoint conditions that will pre-determine identifiable goals (Shirey, 2013). Unfreezing, for example, is the first stage of development that a leader recognizes that a problem exists, once the cause is identified, then leadership seeks measurable goals to implement change (Shirey,…
It is important that the message be sent loud and clear to all employees within the organization that the change must be attacked with an extreme sense of urgency. It is also important for the top level of the organization to have a realistic plan in implementing change. Many times top level management overestimates how many big changes they can force early on. They also underestimate how hard it is to drive people out of their comfort zones (Kotter, 1996). In order to achieve this management must create a powerful…
