This assignment will enable you to describe a plan proposal that includes an analysis of best practices of interprofessional collaboration, change theory, leadership strategies, and organizational resources, including a financial budget, that can be used to solve the problem identified in the health care professional interview you conducted.
Overview
Having reviewed the information gleaned from your professional interview and identified the issue, you will determine and present a plan for an interdisciplinary intervention to address the issue. While you will not be expected to implement the plan during this course, the plan should be evidence-based and realistic within the context of the issue and your interviewee’s organization.
The goal of this assignment is to clearly lay out the improvement objective for your interdisciplinary intervention. Be sure to build on the leadership, change, and collaboration research you completed in the previous assignment. Look for specific, real-world ways in which those strategies and best practices could be used to generate buy-in for the plan or improve the implementation of the plan.
