Critique of policies, procedures, or protocols documentation
Length: 2000 words
Clinical and professional protocols, policies or procedures for the same activity/issue are often written quite differently in different clinical settings and venues.
There are a huge number of sources available to use when writing these documents. However, not all resources are credible or based on current evidence.
- Please choose one (1) topic from the following list to focus on
- Protective isolation management (eg infection control, mental health)
- Alternative pain management
- Intravenous fluid use for paediatric patients
- Administration of IV antibiotics
- Management of adverse drug events
- Management of the aggressive patient
- Wound care management
- Management of the confused patient
- Then find two (2) policies, or procedures, or protocols relating to this topic
- Once you have found your two (2) policies, or procedures, or protocols, you are required to:
Find some evidence to determine which of these policies, or procedures, or protocols is more rigorous than the other focusing on differences and tell why?
To assist your thinking, use the headings below to structure your paper, and refer to the marking rubric for assignment 3
NURS2007 2017 Assignment 3
Introduction: Describe the policies, or procedures, or protocols
Discussion: 1. Identify the most obvious similarities and differences between your chosen policy, or procedure or protocol
2. Discuss (using evidence) why you believe one of these policies, or procedures, or protocols is more rigorous than the other
3. Focussing on the differences; suggest possible reasons why this might be the case – eg: cultural differences, a new organisation as opposed to an old one, size of the organisation, relevance of the policy to the organisations client base, resources available to the organisation etc
(You may not be able to prove these ideas with formal evidence but you need to demonstrate that you have thought about some possibilities for these differences)
Conclusion: Summarise the keys points you have made
