Risk management uses certain documents to track incidents. It will help you to become familiar with the kind of information that goes into these documents. This week, you will create and fill in a quality improvement chart for the high-risk area you selected in Week 1 (Emergency Rooms).

1. Design a chart to show the indicators, their measurements, and the expected and actual performance. Use the template to design your chart. Further, use 5 out of the 10 standards listed. Use the template below.
2. Select one of the fictional incidents you created last week. Describe the incident under Status.
3. For this incident, complete the Compliance section using fictitious data. The tracking of the indicators should correspond to the incident. That is, some failure of compliance may have led to the incident.
4. Develop a plan of correction to address the incident. Write a brief description under Plan of Correction

Use the matrix below to design your quality improvement chart. Show all the indicators you selected in the chart. (Chart is Attached)

Under standards, you may include areas such as the following:

IC: Surveillance, Prevention, and Control of Infection           

 HR: Management of Human Resources

EC: Management of the Environment of Care           

IM: Management of Information

MM: Medication Management 

LD: Leadership

NPSG: National Patient Safety Goals

Compliance (in percent) may be entered on a monthly, quarterly, bi-annual, or annual schedule. The matrix here shows a quarterly compliance schedule. Adjust it as necessary.
