implementation plan–healthcare burnout
Section E: Implementation Plan
In 500-750 words (not including the title page and reference page) provide a description of the methods to be used to implement the proposed solution. Include the following:
Describe the setting and access to potential subjects. If there is a need for a consent or approval form, then one must be created. Although you will not be submitting the consent or approval form(s) in Topic 5 with the narrative, the consent or approval form(s) should be placed in the appendices for the final paper.
Describe the amount of time needed to complete this project. Create a timeline. Make sure the timeline is general enough that it can be implemented at any date. Although you will not be submitting the timeline in Topic 5 with the narrative, the timeline should be placed in the appendices for the final paper.
Describe the resources (human, fiscal, and other) or changes needed in the implementation of the solution. Consider the clinical tools or process changes that would need to take place. Provide a resource list. Although you will not be submitting the resource list in Topic 5 with the narrative, the resource list should be placed in the appendices for the final paper.
Describe the methods and instruments, such as a questionnaire, scale, or test to be used for monitoring the implementation of the proposed solution. Develop the instruments. Although you will not be submitting the individual instruments in Module 5 with the narrative, the instruments should be placed in the appendices for the final paper.
Explain the process for delivering the (intervention) solution and indicate if any training will be needed.
Provide an outline of the data collection plan. Describe how data management will be maintained and by whom. Furthermore, provide an explanation of how the data analysis and interpretation process will be conducted. Develop the data collection tools that will be needed. Although you will not be submitting the data collection tools in Module 5 with the narrative, the data collection tools should be placed in the appendices for the final paper.
Describe the strategies to deal with the management of any barriers, facilitators, and challenges.
Establish the feasibility of the implementation plan. Address the costs for personnel, consumable supplies, equipment (if not provided by the institute), computer related costs (librarian consultation, database access, etc.), and other costs (travel, presentation development). Make sure to provide a brief rationale for each. Develop a budget plan. Although you will not be submitting the budget plan in Module 5 with the narrative, the budget plan should be placed in the appendices for the final paper.
Describe the plans to maintain, extend, revise, and discontinue a proposed solution after implementation.

Healthcare Burnout—Problem Description
In the nursing field, how does burnout in emergency room nurses compared to nurses in a general practitioner’s office affect the care and treatment of patients, and how can it be effectively alleviated?
What I want to explore is, is there a certain point in a career–i.e. number of years on the job, or level of stress in the specific discipline of nursing in which burnout is more likely to occur? Or, is it based more on the type of healthcare position a person holds? Is a physician more likely to reach burnout before a nurse, or a pharmacist or an emergency medical technician (EMT)? According to a 2013 Medscape report, healthcare burnout affects approximately 40% of healthcare workers, with an increase to 51% by 2017–a 25% increase in just 4 years (Reith, 2018).
I’d like to also explore what causes that burnout by interviewing people from different disciplines within healthcare, and what they do to combat the symptoms. Has the incidence of burnout caused any of those people to leave their positions, or the industry all together? Do they feel it has affected their job performance?
When healthcare workers experience burnout, everyone is affected by it. The healthcare worker themselves, their families and coworkers, the patient, the facility they work for and the administration who has to triage the fallout and consequences of the burnout actions.
Burnout symptoms include exhaustion, cynicism, inefficiency, all brought on by stress (Reith, 2018). Some of the way to alleviate this stress from burnout is to encourage and support employees taking breaks, supporting healthy habits such as staying hydrated and healthy eating, and exercise, maintaining a good work-life balance and meditation (Spahic, 2017). This is important because burnout can lead to decreased attention to detail, a laissez-faire attitude on the job or with patients and further lead to mistakes or fatalities occurring due to the contempt for the job.
The purpose of this paper is to study the effects of healthcare burnout and the effects it has on patient care as well as exploring methods of alleviating healthcare burnout. I plan on citing several sources, describing what burnout is, the symptoms, the effects it takes on the healthcare worker, their families, the patient and the facilities they work for as well as ways to help ease the effects, or possibly prevent it from the beginning. I will also include interviews from different people from different fields of healthcare to get their take on healthcare burnout, whether they’ve experienced it, and what they do, or have done, to relieve that stress.
As previously stated, and as will be reiterated, healthcare burnout is a real problem in the healthcare world due to the toll it takes on the healthcare worker and the people that tangentially suffer from the effects of the healthcare worker experiencing that burnout, especially the patient when the concern for protocols, quality care and concern for the patient are no longer evident in the care provided by the healthcare worker.
