Develop a needs assessment survey

Develop a needs assessment survey

Name:                                                    

Just as in the nursing process, assessment is an essential first step in developing your education plan. In this assignment, you will assess the learning needs of your audience and learning environment. The results of this assessment will guide you as you prepare your presentation.

Step I: Develop a needs assessment survey (12 points)

One approach to determining prior knowledge on your chosen topic is through a background knowledge probe or pretest. This approach is helpful to determine the most appropriate starting point for learning. The questions on the pretest should mirror your 3 learning objectives. In addition, every survey should ask, “What would you like to know about the topic,” and, “How do you learn best (visually, auditory, tactile)?”

Directions:

Create a 5- to 7-question needs assessment to gauge the learning needs of your intended audience. Start with clear directions. Ask that your audience members do not place their names on the survey; results should be anonymous. Explain that the results will be used to help you develop an education session best suited to the audience. Write easy to read questions that allow the audience to circle or checkmark their responses.

Consider health literacy in your sentence structure. Once your target audience has completed the survey, please scan and turn in the completed surveys as a single PDF.

Step 2: Interpret the results of the needs assessment (5 points)

Directions:

Reflect on the results of your needs assessment. Describe the learning needs of your audience, and your plan to level your presentation on these results. Answer the following s your audience already familiar with information about your topic? How will this alter your teaching plan? What additional information did your audience request? How do you intend to incorporate this request?

What learning styles did your target audience self- identify? How will you address these learning needs?

Step 3: Assess the learning environment (3 points)

You will need to secure a location to present your health topic. The environment chosen should be convenient for your intended audience. In the past, students have presented in libraries, churches, community centers, private homes, schools, and gyms, parks, and assisted-living facilities. You will want to consider whether you need permission to use the facility and if there is a fee. Once you have secured a location, assess the resources available. Availability of resources, like a computer and screen to project an image, will influence your teaching methods.

Directions:

Describe your learning environment

Document the name and type of the facility you have chosen for your presentation.

Document the name and title of the person granting you permission to teach at this location. If you do not need permission, describe why.

Provide a description of the resources available at this location (i.e., computer, internet access, chalk board, chairs, tables for writing). How will the resources influence your plan for teaching?

Leadership And Management Attributes

Leadership And Management Attributes

You have recently started a position as a department director with five managers reporting to you. Earlier today, one of your managers reports that a client expired on her unit. She suspects that a factor that may have contributed to the client’s demise may be related to the actions of a nurse on her unit. This nurse has several notes in her personnel file that reflect potential client abuse. You and the nurse manager both have concerns that this sentinel event must be investigated.

Later in the day, the Chief Nursing Officer asks you to speak to new nurse managers to share attributes of leadership with the plan of enhancing their leadership skills. You see an opportunity to combine the situation of the client with a bad outcome, due to the alleged influence of one of the nurses, while building information to share this real-life situation with new nurse leaders.

Instructions

As a follow up to the investigation of the client’s unexpected death, generate an internal memo to your managers to reflect leadership and management attributes and include steps taken to investigate this unfortunate situation. As you create this memo, keep in mind that you should include:

My Quality Of Life Self-Care Plan

Balancing School and Life – My Quality of Life Self-Care Plan. The purpose of developing this Plan is to set a framework and a plan to maintain wellness and to stay motivated and engaged throughout your Program. Doing this will help you achieve success during your coursework and as a professional nurse.

The goal of the Project is to help you become self-aware and reflective as a means of identifying personal self-care strategies that will increase your energy and help you manage your stress. The Project will give you a chance to learn how this is accomplished as you will be doing similar work with clients during the Program and as a professional nurse to assist them in the same way.

Using an online search tool such as Google.com, locate and select a free quality of life assessment tool. Assess your quality of life using the tool you selected. You can find your own tool, but I prefer everyone use the Quality of Life Self Care Wheel attached below.

The Thing That Has Really Made Me Tough

The Thing That Has Really Made Me Tough

 

Venus Williams:

Venus Williams is a professional tennis player who has won seven Grand Slams and four Olympic gold medals.

I’m sitting at my desk after having to pull out of this year’s U.S. Open with a leg injury. Managing physical ailments is always difficult, but it’s part of a professional athlete’s job. I have always understood this.

But my body is only half of it. I still remember the first time my mother told me this: If I wanted to thrive in this sport — and in life — I needed to take care of my “whole self.”

We had traveled to Oakland for my first professional tennis tournament. I was 14. She was aware that I was entering a new phase of my life, one that would bring heightened visibility and more intense demands. She saw the pressures gathering on the horizon.

Until then, putting myself in a position to perform at my best had always meant physical training, physical preparedness and physical health. The extent of my understanding of the psychological side of things was to be mentally tough on the court in the name of winning. I made sure never to show any weakness.

What my mom was telling me that day in Oakland was that none of those elements of winning would work unless I also tended to my mental health. I needed to have a balanced life and not identify myself solely as a tennis player. Even though I was beginning to have success as a young pro, I had to remain committed to my education, stay connected to my religion and enjoy the experience of improvement — not be so driven that I would miss it all.

In other words, my life wasn’t just about how well I hit the ball. And neither was my success on the court. We’ve all seen professional athletes whose performances have fallen off because of things happening to them off the fields of play that mess with their mental state.

A few years ago, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. There was no book I could read to tell me how I could manage and overcome this illness. There was not, and is not, a straight line to the solution.

But after years of thinking holistically, I knew how to get started. I set about working not only with doctors on the physical aspects of my disease, but I also sought out mental health professionals to help me see more clearly — not to let my fears distort my reality — and to develop my ability to learn to stay in the moment. Also, and perhaps most important of all, I learned to be kind to myself every day as I faced this new obstacle.

I may be a professional tennis player, but I actually don’t think I’m that different from everyone else. All of us face mental health challenges resulting from the inevitable setbacks and uncertainties of life. We also live in a culture that glorifies being a workaholic, where the risks of burnout are often ignored, and where, let’s face it, whether you’re on or off the court, winning is everything.

It doesn’t matter who you are. You need support. You can’t divorce mental health from anything you do. It impacts your physical well-being, your decision-making, your ability to cope with difficult moments.

I grew up running down every last ball on the hot, hard courts of Compton. My sister Serena and I were taught that we’d have to fight harder than other players to get the respect we deserved. That’s what I thought “tough” meant.

But admitting you’re vulnerable is no joke. It isn’t easy to ask for help or confide in people about having emotional struggles. I have been lucky to have a sister who has gone through similar challenges; we have always been able to share our experiences and support each other.

Paying attention to my psychological well-being has allowed me to love the game of tennis for this long. I guess you could say it’s the thing that has really made me tough.

I am fortunate to have family and coaches who let me lean on them. For me, open and positive communication is essential. It has been wonderful to see so many athletes, such as Naomi Osaka, Simone Biles and Michael Phelps, talk about the need to tend to the inevitable psychological issues that bubble up for all of us.

But it is incredibly frustrating to me that only an estimated half of those who have mental illness get the treatment they need. As we confront the devastating impact of the pandemic, support for our mental health is more urgent than ever. I would imagine that if you’re reading this column, you know someone who was or is struggling emotionally. I know I do.

I have partnered with the therapy service Better Help and the Women’s Tennis Association, which are providing $2 million toward free therapy to anyone who signs up and are supporting efforts to remove associations of shame attached to mental illness.

I am excited to lend my voice to destigmatizing mental illness, and it starts here: Let’s show up for ourselves and for one another and recognize what it takes to be truly strong.

Venus Williams is a professional tennis player who has won seven Grand Slam titles and four Olympic gold medals.

A version of this article appears in print on Sept. 13, 2021, Section A, Page 19 of the New York edition with the headline: Being Tough Means Taking Care of My Whole Self.

n “Venus Williams: The Thing That Has Really Made Me Tough,” the athlete says, “It doesn’t matter who you are, You need support. You can’t divorce mental health from anything you do. It impacts your physical well-being, your decision-making, your ability to cope with difficult moments.”

Using the article for support, explain whether or not you agree with Williams’ emphasis on mental health as a foundation for  success.
