All specialty courses in the Leadership and Management program will have an authentic performance assessment that scaffolds the tasks of the healthcare improvement project (HIP) through the project management phases of project initiation, planning, implementation, and evaluation. Each performance assessment will focus on aspects of the project management phases by requiring a real-world approach to improving healthcare with the implementation of a healthcare improvement project. You will describe each phase of the project management life cycle in the corresponding sections of the attached “D158 HIP Paper Template.”
In this performance assessment, you will strategically plan the execution of your healthcare improvement project (HIP) to help develop the skills for systems thinking, problem-solving, and data-driven decision-making. Planning the implementation of your HIP involves identifying people, processes, and procedures that need to be in place. In addition, sociodemographic data on the population that may be affected by the healthcare improvement project need to be analyzed to determine risks and opportunities. It is also important for you to perform an assessment of the forces for and against implementing the project. Finally, it is important for you to identify short-term objectives and create action plans that align with the vision, mission, and values of the organization where the project will be implemented.
This task requires the submission of the provided “D158 HIP Paper Template,” including the following sections of your HIP paper, which you will be developing in this performance assessment:
• Implementation Approach
• Action Plan
• Gantt Chart
• Social Determinants of Health and Target Population
• Force Field Analysis
• Scope Statement
• Communication and Training Plans
The following templates should be completed and submitted as appendices to your provided HIP paper template:
• SMART Goal Worksheet (completed in D156) (Appendix A)
• Gantt Chart (completed in D156) (Appendix B)
• Action Plan Template (Appendix C)
• Force Field Analysis Template (Appendix D)
During your clinical practice experience (CPE), you had the opportunity to submit the force field analysis and Gantt chart. These deliverables were evaluated in your CPE for completion, not quality. When you submit these deliverables as appendices to your HIP paper in this task, they will be evaluated on content and quality of completion. The CPE provides an opportunity for you to practice and improve these items before including them in your performance assessment.
REQUIREMENTS
Your submission must be your original work. No more than a combined total of 30% of the submission and no more than a 10% match to any one individual source can be directly quoted or closely paraphrased from sources, even if cited correctly. The similarity report that is provided when you submit your task can be used as a guide.
You must use the rubric to direct the creation of your submission because it provides detailed criteria that will be used to evaluate your work. Each requirement below may be evaluated by more than one rubric aspect. The rubric aspect titles may contain hyperlinks to relevant portions of the course.
Tasks may not be submitted as cloud links, such as links to Google Docs, Google Slides, OneDrive, etc., unless specified in the task requirements. All other submissions must be file types that are uploaded and submitted as attachments (e.g., .docx, .pdf, .ppt).

• Define specific tasks.
• Sequence the tasks.
• Estimate the duration of each task.
• Develop the schedule.
