Disclosures◦ Requirements for successful completion: Attendance
at event & turning in an evaluation form.
◦ Conflict of interest: Planners & faculty have declared no COI
◦ The Ohio Nurses Association (OBN-001-91) is accredited as a provider of continuing nursing education by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation.

Overview of Quality Outcomes Section
Overall vision: The approved provider unit engages in an ongoing evaluation process to analyze its overall effectiveness in fulfilling its goals and operational requirements to provide quality CNE.
What does this mean?What are you expected to do?
(c) ONA, 2014
7
Overview: SubsetsThe approved provider unit (APU)must evaluate the effectiveness
of its overall functioning.
The APU shall include a variety of stakeholders, comprising those with a vested interest in the provider unit’s outcomes, in the evaluation process.
The APU must demonstrate quality improvement efforts, including identifying strategies for working on targeted goals, evaluating progress toward goals, and revising or establishing new goals.
The APU shall evaluate data to determine how the APU, through the learning activities it has provided, has influenced the professional development of its nurse learners.
(c) ONA, 2014
8
Key QuestionsWhat is your evaluation process?
How does it contribute to changing quality outcome measure(s)?
Who participates in the evaluation process, and how do they help?
What have you done to improve the professional practice of your RN learners?
(c) ONA, 2014
9
QO 1: Evaluation ProcessThe process utilized for evaluating
effectiveness of the APU in delivering quality CNE.
Key components:◦Process◦Effectiveness◦Provider unit◦Delivering quality education
(c) ONA, 2014
10
QO 1: Things to Think AboutWhat do you include in your provider unit evaluation?
This is DIFFERENT THAN evaluating an individual activity!
Consider all the factors that impact your ability to provide quality CNE: human, material, and financial resources; time; money; alignment with the strategic plan of the organization; departmental goals; metrics associated with quality outcome measures
(c) ONA, 2014
11
QO 2: Evaluation Process How the evaluation process for the APU
resulted in the development or improvement of an identified quality outcome measure (refer to QOMs listed in OO4).
Key components:◦Evaluation process identified in QO 1◦Developing and/or improving quality outcome
measures (really important to tie these pieces together) (c) ONA, 2014
12
QO 2: Things to Think AboutWhat is your process for making changes in the
structure and operations of your provider unit? What evaluation data supports those changes?
Are your quality outcome measures in OO4 appropriate, realistic, and measurable?
What is an example of how you’ve developed a new QOM or strengthened an existing one?
(c) ONA, 2014
13
Making QOM Data Clear
Which outcome measure is more clearly written?
1. Learner engagement.
2. At least 75% of activities will involve active engagement of learners.
(c) ONA, 2014
14
Relating QOMs to Evaluation Data
Which set of provider unit quality outcome measures would be the appropriate “home” for the QOM about learner engagement?
1. OO4b: Your provider unit
2. OO4c: Nursing professional development
(c) ONA, 2014
15
If That Was Your QOM…75% of activities in calendar year 20xx will involve active
engagement of learners.
What is the process for evaluating the provider unit in relation to activities with learner engagement? Were you successful? If not, why not? Were faculty not aware of how to do this? Were learners unwilling? Were activities not structured appropriately? Were physical resources not conducive?
So what – what did you do? Provide a specific example of how you improved this QOM based on your evaluation data.
(c) ONA, 2014
16
QO 3: Evaluation ParticipantsWhy the APU selects specific stakeholders to
participate in the evaluation process.
Key components◦Selection – an active decision on your part, not just
“by default”◦Specific people or groups (education council, for
example)◦Active participation – not just names on a form
(c) ONA, 2014
17
QO 3: Things To Think AboutWhat are stakeholders?
Why do they matter?
How do you decide who participates?
Are they clear on the importance of their roles?
What, specifically, do you want them to contribute to the evaluation process? (c) ONA, 2014
18
What About This?
Is this an ok response to identification of stakeholders?
They are our nurse planners and faculty
◦Yes◦No
(c) ONA, 2014
19
QO 4: Quality Outcome MeasuresHow input from stakeholders resulted in
development or improvement in quality outcome measures for the APU. (Again, refer to those QOMs in OO4b)
Key components:◦Input from stakeholders (they aren’t just names on
the list in QO3)◦Use of their feedback◦Correlation to QOMs (c) ONA, 2014
20
QO 4: Things To Think AboutSame question as with QO3: do stakeholders really
appreciate the value of their roles? Do they understand the importance of what they do?
Are you engaging the right stakeholders? Are there opportunities for expanding your pool (or contracting it)?
Are they well-versed in your current QOMs to be able to provide input?
Are you giving them data that you’ve collected to help inform their comments and suggestions?
(c) ONA, 2014
21
QO 5: Value/Benefit to Nursing Professional DevelopmentHow, over the past 12 months, the APU has
enhanced nursing professional development (again, referring to the QOMs in OO4).
Key components:◦12 months (not the whole provider approval period)◦Enhancing nursing professional development – in
the aggregate◦Related to QOMs in 004c
(c) ONA, 2014
22
QO 5: Things to Think AboutReflect on your goals and outcome measures
Why were these important? Were they stated in measurable terms? If not, how do you know if you’ve made progress?◦ Improve responsiveness to patients whose conditions are
deterioriating◦ Decrease response time for rapid response teams on med-surg units
by 50%
What do we mean by “nursing professional development”?◦ May not be a direct patient-care change◦ Requires strong knowledge of your target population and their
needs (globally, not just for a particular learning activity)(c) ONA, 2014
23
QO 5: The Bottom LineAre you worth keeping around?
Does your organization need you?
Can you validate your contributions to the strategic plan of your organization?
This is your evidence – make it strong!
