DEVELOPING A SMALL NURSING INFORMATICS PROJECT FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION
Week 6: Assignment
DEVELOPING A SMALL NURSING INFORMATICS PROJECT FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION, PART 2: IMPLEMENTATION (CONTINUED)
In these next 2 weeks—Weeks 6 and 7—you might implement your small nursing informatics project or propose how you might implement your small nursing informatics project for your healthcare organization or nursing practice. Specifically, you will examine how to apply the 10 tracking documents developed in Part 1. Remember, the goal of this project is to demonstrate, through the project, your understanding of nursing informatics. Track your project to make sure the implementation is going as planned. Activities to track with application of tools:
- Is the project staying within scope? (Scope)
- Were all of the gaps identified? (Gap Analysis)
- Is the project following the timeline? (Project timeline)
- If you had a budget, is it on track?
- Were all of the work activities correctly assigned? (WBS)
- Are team members responsible? (RACI)
- Did the project start on time, inline to meet due date? (Gantt)
- Are you holding weekly status meetings and documented all activities? Are all team members in attendance and communicated with? (Communication Plan)
- Are all changes approved and documented? (Change Management Plan)
- Are all risks identified, prioritized, and assigned an owner and mitigation plan developed? (Risk Management Plan)
Using these activities, begin to develop and compile the final paper, discussing the plan for implementation and tracking project progress with your manager who will provide oversight for your project. If you do not have time to fully implement your project due to constraints discussed with your manager and Instructor, continue to write it up and submit it as if you were implementing. Be sure to document and justify why you could not actually implement your project and discuss the constraints.
Part 2 is due by Day 7 of Week 9.
You are not required to submit this assignment this week.
