Driving Action to Promote Translation of Research for Quality Improvement
Complete your Module 5 Assignment by the end of Week 5.
In the Module 1 Discussion, you selected an issue in your current practice you feel creates barriers to the delivery of high-quality, evidence-based nursing care. In this assignment, you will apply what you have learned to create a logic model and an action plan for resolving your issue and implementing the results in practice. The logic model and the action plan will serve as the major components of a Quality Improvement (QI) Action Plan.
As a prelude to this assignment, view the video, The Stevens Star Model of Knowledge Transformation, which depicts how newly discovered knowledge moves into practice. As you complete your assignment, consider how the steps you are taking toward a quality improvement project align with the Stevens Star Model, also known as the ACE Star Model.

Step 1. Review
In Chapter 15 of the Boswell and Cannon text, review Figures 15-2 (p. 352) and 15-3 (p. 356) which show examples of a logic model template and an action plan worksheet used to promote quality improvement in clinical practice.
Step 2. Access
Access the Logic Model Template and the Action Plan Worksheet.
Step 3. Complete
Complete the Logic Model Template and the Action Plan Worksheet for the clinical practice issue you identified in the Module 1 Discussion and as the major components of a Quality Improvement (QI) Action Plan.
Step 4. Introduce
In 1-2 paragraphs, introduce the Quality Improvement (QI) Action Plan, including the completed Logic Model Template and the Action Plan Worksheet for your proposed qualitative or mixed-method research on the selected clinical practice issue.
Step 5. Present
Present the final Quality Improvement (QI) Action Plan, including the Logic Model Template and the Action Plan Worksheet, to an administrator or other appropriate party for feedback and implementation consideration. At the conclusion of the presentation, provide the administrator or other party an original evaluation seeking their opinion as to identified strengths or weaknesses in your plan. Will it be implemented? Why or why not?
Step 6. Reflect
In 1-2 paragraphs, reflect upon your meeting with the administrator or other administrative party to whom you presented your final Quality Improvement Action Plan. Describe how it was received. Reflect on the administrators or other parties response to your evaluation questions (Were there identified strengths or weaknesses in your plan, for example? Will it be implemented? Why or why not?)
Step 7 Submit
Submit an APA-formatted paper of no more than 5 pages in length excluding references and title page including:
Quality Improvement Action Plan paper
Attach your completed Action Worksheet, Model Template, and the “ Administrator/other Party evaluation” as appendices.
In your concluding paragraph of your Quality Improvement Action Plan Paper, reflect on:
The process of creating the logic model and action plan,
How your quality improvement project aligns with the Stevens ACE Star Model,
Your overall learning in the course about evidence-based practice (EBP) and quality improvement.
