The last case Defendant cites, Quinones, is almost identical to Pierce and Barrett in that the facts also involve a capias warrant issued by a trial court in an active Ohio case, when appellee failed to appear for his trial. In Quinones, defendant-appellee had gotten arrested and incarcerated in Arizona while awaiting trial on his Ohio matter. In that case also, the prisoner did everything possible to notify the appropriate prison authorities, court and prosecutor of his place of imprisonment, and promptly filed a pro se motion for speedy trial to give actual notice to the State and Court. Here too, the State failed to act in a timely manner after the detainer was set to return the prisoner to Ohio custody, and he filed a motion to dismiss

Hospitals frequently enhance their quality of care by improving their best practices. Bedside reporting is a best practice that has numerous benefits including a decrease in the potential for mistakes, increased patient involvement and understanding of their care, increased teamwork among nurses, and an increased accountability of nurses (AHRQ, 2013). A review of the literature was run and showed several studies and literature reviews on bedside reporting. The majority of these articles were conducted on adult medical-surgical
Educational Preparation of Clinical Nurse Leader (CNL) The vision for the Clinical Nurse Leader CNL role began in 2003-2004 in response to the Institute of Medicine’s quality and safety reports. In 1999, the Institute of Medicine released its report, To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System, which called on health care systems to reduce medical errors and improve patient safety. In 2002, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation called for developing new practice models and enhancing collaboration between education and practice, and in 2003, the Institute of Medicine released its set of five core competencies that all clinicians should possess, regardless of their discipline, to meet the needs of patients in the 21st-century health care system. The Clinical Nurse Leader (CNL) is a master’s educated nurse, prepared for practice across the continuum of care within any healthcare setting.
The Importance of the Six Aims of Quality Patient Care (STEEEP) Since the addition of Crossing the Quality Chasm six aims of quality patient care was created by the Institute of Medicine (IOM), there has been a significant change in the effectiveness and condition of patient care. Before this report came out in 2001, health care providers did not realize that they were not providing proper care to patients in addition to disorganization and complexity of standards of care. The IOM was able to determine that, “failure of system processes, poor communication, and unhealthy work environments contribute to medical errors, ineffective delivery of care, and stress among health professionals” (Winterbottom 2012). It is essential for patients to feel
Medicare reimbursement is partially based on a facility’s Star Rating. A critical component to this is patient surveys and HCAHPS. I have seen a push toward the customer service experience. Indeed, I feel strongly that every healthcare worker including nurses should treat each of their patients with respect, equality and do the absolute best to meet their needs.
In the leadership in care delivery course, we were assigned to a hospital to perform clinical hours and provide care to four patients. Additionally, the purpose of this paper is to explain and provide examples on how our patient care included the concepts of Quality and Safety Education for Nursing (QSEN) competencies, delegation, handoff reporting, and a reflection of the clinical experience. Quality and Safety Education for Nursing (QSEN) Competencies QSEN consists of six competencies: patient centered care, quality improvement, teamwork and collaboration, safety, informatics, and evidence based practice. To provide patient-centered care, I had to educate the patient when administering medications on why the patient was taking the medication and side effects. Care had to be individualized with each patient and it included providing respect with his or her decisions in their care.
The text described the dimensions and level of patient involvement in great detail using the M-APR model. The “M” stands for micro, meso, and macro; then across two dimensions the “APR,” which stands for active/proactive and passive/reactive involvement. These dimensions suggest that patient, family, and public involvement and feedback into CQI can be attained through a variety of mechanisms (Sollecito, Johnson, Pages 210-216). According to the text, passive involvement perceives services and system drawings on more removed, yet still useful, sources of patient feedback.
Quality and measurement theories that abandon the highest levels of appropriateness, will accomplish the healthcare industry evaluates the accountability costs and impacts. Having an understanding of the scrutiny of service, responsibilities, customer satisfaction, effective service and performance, and outcome assessments are all requirements of accountability, which are part of the continuum for accountability (Ledlow & Coppola,
In a cold winter day, have you ever observed white smoke come out from your mouth when you exhale? Have you ever thoroughly felt the force pressing on your skin when wind blows? These are some of the states that “qi” appears in our daily lives. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TMC), qi plays as a fundamental component from time to time explaining its ideas. Theories of both Chinese and Western medicine exist for helping people maintain good health and away from deceases.

Employee Empowerment Employee empowerment involves the workforce being provided with a greater degree of flexibility and more freedom to make decisions relating to work. Individuals are allowed to take personal responsibility for improving the way they do their jobs and contribute to the achievement of organizational goals.

Meaning: The value one places on the importance on a given job, based on the individual’s own standards and ideals (Thomas and Velthouse, 1990) ii. Competence: The ability or capability of the individual to perform tasks or responsibilities assigned.
Dementia Can you imagine what your life would be like if one of your loved ones could not recall memories you once shared or have the ability to fully take care of themselves? Their mind is no longer allowing them to properly function as they should, so they become forgetful.
