- Identify the problem to be addressed and the setting in which it occurs.
- Outline your proposal to address the problem.
- Identify and discuss ethical, legal, and regulatory concerns relating to the problem.

Support your plan by gathering as much information about your selected problem as possible. Consider both qualitative and quantitative data, for example:

- Patient/customer surveys
- Quality improvement (QI) reports from the facility
- Benchmarking studies/baseline data.
- If baseline data is available:
- What are the goals?
- Are current practices meeting the organizational goals?
- Are the prescribed practices followed?
Format your assignment as one of the following:
- 15- to 20-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation
