  • “The Impact of Nurse Burnout, Fatigue, and Bullying on Patient Safety and Quality of Care: A Discussion on Organizational Strategies to Address These Issues”

    Reading materials:
    The following
    article discusses the effect of nurse burnout on patient safety, quality of
    care and other organizational outcomes. It’s a long article, focus your reading
    on the discussion section.
    Jun et al.
    (2021)
    This article looks at studies that have done
    examining how nursing fatigue affects patient safety. Focus on the results and
    discussion sections. Think about how your practice differs when you are
    well-rested and when you are tired.
    Cho &
    Steege (2021)
    The next article examines how workplace
    bullying affects patient safety and offers suggestions on how individuals,
    managers and leaders can address this issue.  
    Wallace &
    Gipson (2017)Links: https://patientsafety.pa.gov/ADVISORIES/Pages/201706_64.aspx
    Here are the Questions:
    1. What are the
    effects of burnout on patient safety and quality of care?
    2. What are the
    effects of fatigue on patient safety and quality of care?
    3. What is one
    thing that the readings suggested that nursing leaders or staff nurses can do
    to address either burnout or fatigue?
    4. Does your
    organization do anything to address fatigue or burnout (other than telling you
    to take care of yourself, which isn’t really a solution)?
    5. In this
    module we talked about human factors that affect patient safety and quality of
    care. We focused on fatigue, burnout and bullying behaviors. What are actions
    that you can take to address one of these issues?

    Population Health Concern Case
    Study and Policy Action Addendum Paper (Case
    Study/Policy Paper):  30% of course
    grade

    are involved as a master’s prepared nurse in providing health-related services
    in Paterson, NJ (direct care, administration and/or education). To serve, you
    will want to better understand the health needs/concerns of the population and
    to explore effective means of improvement. For this paper’s purposes, please
    choose as your focus one population health concern/issue relevant to Paterson,
    NJ. *If you wish to focus on an area other than Paterson please speak to the instructor
    (prior approval is needed).
    Continued: Population Health Concern Case Study and Policy Action
    Addendum Paper (Case Study/Policy Paper) 
    The paper should include
    (please organize the paper accordingly with headers):
    A. Introduction: Introduce the population health issue/concern and
    provide a brief overview of your rationale for focusing on this health concern
    (1-3 paragraphs). You may focus on a specific population group in Paterson; if
    not specified, the assumption will be that the discussion applies to the
    population of Paterson. Discuss the risk and preventive factors associated with
    this health concern and its consequences for public health. Support your
    discussion with evidence. The introduction may summarize information you
    discuss in greater detail further in the paper.
    B. Epidemiology: Provide and discuss relevant
    descriptive and analytical epidemiological data. Analyze and
    discuss data relationships considering risk, causative or protective factors,
    comparisons over time and comparisons to other populations.
    C. Benchmarks and Strategies to Address this
    Health Concern: Discuss relevant established benchmarks for progress in this
    area of health concern (state, national and/or international benchmarks).
    Discuss recommended strategies to address this health concern and the evidence
    supporting these recommendations. Please discuss your opinion of the relevance
    and cultural implications of these benchmarks and strategies to the population
    you are focusing on. Are there other benchmarks and/or strategies you would propose?
    If so, please discuss and provide a rationale.
    D. Policy Action Addendum: Of the strategies
    to address this health care concern discussed to this point, please identify
    one or two strategies, and discuss potential options for policy advancement
    that would support the strategy. Please recall that the policy advancement may
    be related to judicial, legislative, administrative, or regulatory policy,
    institutional policy, or other non-governmental policy. You might ask yourself:
    ‘what needs to change to better be able to engage this strategy and
    address this health issue, how might this relate to policy change and how would
    this change be made?’ This is a chance to be intellectually creative,
    and your ideas here should be informed by the methods and examples covered in
    your coursework. Several policy advancement options should be covered. (1-2
    pages of the 6-9-page paper).
