Case: Considerations and Challenges for Implementation and Outcomes section
For this worksheet, you will identify considerations and challenges for implementation and the expected outcomes sections of your project. You will post this as your initial post, receive suggestions and questions from faculty and student colleagues, then copy/paste the worksheet contents into the full project.
Considerations and Challenges for Implementation
In this section, discuss potential barriers and/or facilitators, which could impact your proposed project's implementation. Is there a resistance to change? Is there currently a culture in your chosen community setting that would be open to evidence-based information on your topic? Will it be difficult to reach your population of interest? What strategies could you use to overcome any barriers you might face? How will you capitalize upon any facilitators you have identified?
Outcomes
In this section, you will explain how you will measure the efficacy of your evidence-based education intervention. Though you will not be able to track the long-term implications of the education, you will likely see some immediate response from your audience indicating their willingness to make a change. Use the objectives you developed in the prior worksheet to guide you. Objectives/outcomes MUST be measurable. If they aren't measurable, you'll have to rewrite the objectives.
Using the bicycle safety exemplar, some outcome measures may be as follows:
Project Objective 1: Increase public awareness of the number of serious and fatal bicycle injuries each year in the US, the state, and locally
Project Outcome 1: During the Q&A session following the talk, participants actively engage in discussion about how to reduce the number of bicycle related injuries in their community.
Project Objective 2: Engage local officials/stakeholders in the development of a bicycle safety campaign and discounted helmets
Project Outcome 2: The RN-BSN student met with the local police department, and they agreed to hold monthly education sessions on proper helmet fitting.
Project Objective 3: Demonstrate the proper sizing/fit of a helmet for maximum safety benefit.
Project Outcome 3: Participants practice adjusting their helmet (or on a model helmet brought to session) and place the helmet on their heads properly.
