Needs Statement, Goals, Objectives

/in /by

Write your Needs Statement. Substantiate the need by presenting proof of need. Keep in mind that the Needs Statement must reflect best practices in grant writing.Next, using bullets, list your goals, then your objectives, and finally your evaluation criteria for each one.*Goal #1*Goal #2*Goal #3

*Objective 1*Objective 2*Objective 3

*Evaluation Criteria #1,n*Evaluation Criteria #2,n*Evaluation Criteria #3,n

It is imperative that your needs statement, goals, objectives, and evaluation criteria align.

For example, Goal #1, Objective #1, and Evaluation Criteria #1 must align and collectively meet the needs statement.

When developing your objectives, use the SMART objectives framework; list each of your project objectives.

Project objectives must be specific.Project objectives must be measurable.Project objectives must be achievable.Project objectives must be realistic.Project objectives must be time-based.

Assessment Description

The ancient African proverb “It takes a village to raise a child” has truth. Research shows that when teachers collaborate and communicate with families, it ultimately benefits the child. However, as times have changed, so have family dynamics and societal challenges. Families may face trials that prohibit them from being involved in their child’s education, from classroom activities to school functions. Teachers can help alleviate some of these challenges by offering alternatives and solutions so that all families have the opportunity to be active participants in their child’s learning and well-being.

Select three of the parental/caregiver challenges from the list below to address at a Family Information Night:

  • Financial issues
  • Limited opportunities for recreation and leisure
  • Sibling issues
  • Constant care and supervision of a child with a disability
  • Strain on family relationships due to hardships and difficulties
  • Logistical issues such as transportation
  • Difficulty getting time away from job
  • Frequent disability-related crises
  • Health issues of family members
  • Difficulties obtaining appropriate educational services
  • Other family dynamics, such as foster care, group home, parent/guardian away due to military/career

Part 1: Family Challenge Presentation

Design a 10-15 slide digital presentation for families that outlines the selected challenges.

Within your presentation:

  • Describe each challenge.
  • Provide potential solutions to each challenge.
  • Provide strategies to put potential solutions in place.
  • Identify resources that could help parents facing each challenge.
  • Discuss how technology could also be a resource for families that face the challenges.
  • Indicate that your desire is to provide support, not to assume that you know exactly what the families are going through. Consider including a relatable personal experience that, when mentioned briefly, could bridge the gap between you and the families.
  • Include presenter’s notes, a title slide, and a reference slide.

Support your presentation content with 3-5 scholarly resources.

The digital presentation should include graphics that are relevant to the content, visually appealing, and use space appropriately.

Part 2: Communication Plan

Write a 250-500 word communication plan, for a grade level of your choice, to ensure collaboration with families and caregivers. Your communication plan should include how you will communicate with families throughout the school year and identify various communication methods to meet the challenges some families may face. Explain how your plan will incorporate technology.

nitiating best practices and effective strategies for innovation begins with highly effective interprofessional communication. One way to begin to establish yourself as a leader is to stay abreast of theories and evolving strategies and then inviting others to help you realize them at work. Being informed requires the ability to perform and process research.

After investigating several leadership theories, you will have the opportunity to organize your understanding of five examples by completing a worksheet for future reference and professional use. This worksheet can serve as a springboard for a catalog of best practices and strategies.

As you learned in NSG/416: Theoretical Development and Conceptual Frameworks, theory-guided practice improves patient outcomes because of purposeful systematic application. As you grow in the nurse leader role, you will see that the same holds true for theory-guided leadership. This assessment is designed to link leadership theory to practice and connect your past and current experience to help you grow as a leader.

For this summative assessment, you will compile your own theory reference guide. This guide will help you facilitate interprofessional communications when discussing rationales and plans for changes you believe will improve quality of care and the work environment.

Complete the Leadership Theories in Practice worksheet to create a customized resource that classifies the theories you find relevant. It is a succinct venue for itemizing meaningful and actionable guidance for application in the workplace. This guide is a tool that you can grow throughout your career as you stay current in best practices while navigating change and challenges.

There are hundreds of opioid conversion calculators available online, though they are not all of good quality.  I would like to direct you to one of the opioid conversion calculators that I find to be most useful and evidence based.  Locate http://opioidcalculator.practicalpainmanagement.com/ and evaluate the following case using the calculator as necessary. Discuss your approach to the overall case and results of your calculation.

  • A 79 year old white male is taking hydrocodone/APAP 10/325 for lower back pain (pt diagnosed with degenerative disc disease several months ago). The physician had written a prescription for Vicodin® 10/325  i-ii Q4-6h prn pain with a quantity of 120.  Her expectation was that this would last the patient for one month.  The patient is now requesting refills about every 10-14 days.  He states he has been taking 2 tabs Q4h (12 tablets per day) because “the pain is so bad I just can’t stand it!”.
    • What is the problem with the way the patient is taking this medication versus the way it was prescribed
    • Based on your assessment, it is determined this patient should be converted to extended release morphine for better, more consistent pain control. Perform this conversion and provide an appropriate recommendation (drug, dose, frequency).

Migraine is a major neurological disease that affects more than 36 million men, women and children in the United States. There is no cure for migraine. Most current treatments aim to reduce headache frequency and stop individual headaches when they occur. Let’s look at a case example:

  • CM is 20 years old female with severe, prolonged 2 to 3 day migraines twice per month. She has difficulty sleeping and is mildly anxious. She occasionally utilizes an inhaler for asthma.
    • Provide an evaluation of CM’s condition including non-pharmacological interventions and treatment options
    • Is Cm a candidate for prophylactic therapy, and if so, what option would be best suited to her?
