When implementing the DNP project, the first step is to identify the participants (McElhinney, 2012). The targeted population entails adults aged between 18 to 35 years. The project will use a timeline where the first-week introduction of change project to the nurses, dieticians, physicians, and gym instructors and recruitment of participants. The next four weeks will include the implementation of the project activities through group sessions, including the setting of training areas.
The DNP project is implemented to address diabetes in a pre-diabetic population. The first milestone will include communication with a faculty advisor at least once every two weeks to discuss core abilities in the implementation and any improvements required. Ensure that the secure clinical advisor provides the required knowledge of the community to identify law ethics and advanced healthcare policies. To ensure that the implementation is smooth, the sustainability plan will be used whenever there are challenges, including financial support, political realities, and system update (Pieper & Colwell, 2012). Identifying indicators of quality outcomes will include several outlined healthcare measures that have been recognized based on empirical evidence as sensitive to achieving quality outcomes for patients through ensuring the effectiveness of patient care strategies by identifying the individual progress of participants with the weight reduction goals (Mezibov, 2000). Reduce any implementation delays by ensuring strict use of the mandated timeline. Finally, use surveys to formulate feedback from the targeted population to recognize the success of the project implementation.
Comprehensive research will be conducted that will include data collection through follow up calls from various participants hence ensuring the achievements of the project milestones. The patients will be interviewed to describe their experience throughout the weight reduction interventions. There are implementation changes on the schedule to include additional data and participants. The changes are necessary because the higher the number of participants, the higher the chances of acquiring unbiased data.
The implementation process is ongoing, with participants introduced to the self-management session groups. The success of the project is that there is improved patient care and enhanced leadership skills. The challenge includes a lack of enough implementation time to ensure full individual achievement of waste reduction goals.
PICOT question: does the implementation of an education series based on the American Diabetes Association Guidelines, compare to the usual care, decrease patient weight, and fasting blood sugar in eight to ten weeks.
