Issue
A difficult quality, safety, or performance improvement issue cannot be adequately resolved without reviewing the background, research, and suggested resolutions as found in the literature. Very often, another organization or person has had similar ideas in mind and has done work that is pertinent to your issue. Examining all the current research and information available will assist you in finding other pertinent studies, which in turn will help you in directing your efforts towards your goal.
Cover the following:
- Describe the available research related to your selected quality, safety, or performance improvement issue.
- Examine what is known to positively or negatively impact the improvement issue.
Be sure to include an introduction to the research, an annotated bibliography of four to six articles, and a summary of the conclusions drawn from this research. In addition, support your statements with scholarly references and appropriate examples.
Cite all sources using the APA format.
