Module 4
discussion
Start by reading and following these instructions:
You are responsible for minimally at least 3 posts for each
question in your discussion boards; your initial post and reply to two of your
classmates. Your initial post(s) should be your response to the questions posed
in the discussion question. You should research your answer and cite at least
one scholarly source when appropriate, and always use quality writing. The
discussion board is never a place to use text language or emoticons. You will
also be asked to respond to your classmates. This is designed to enhance the
academic discussion around the topic. It is all right to disagree with
something posted by another; however, your responses should always be
thoughtful and respectful and reflect your opinions professionally.
Discussion Question:
Review the most current Patient Safety Goals
(http://www.jointcommission.org/standards_information/npsgs.aspx). Find a
research article that discusses one of the goals. Summarize the article and
explain how your day to day practice has changed since the implementation of
this goal. Has the change had an effect? Explain.
Your initial posting should be 400 words in length and
utilize at least one scholarly source other than the textbook. Please reply to at least two classmates. Replies to classmates should be 200 words in
length. To properly “thread” your
discussion posting, please click on REPLY.
When you are ready for the discussion, do the following:
1. Click on the discussion link above.
2. Start your answer with the title of your answer and a
body following the guidance above.
3. To properly “thread” your discussion please
click on Reply.
4. After posting your contribution, you must read what
others have posted, reply to at least two of those posts, and respond (when
appropriate) to those you have responded to you.
