Identify and review two evidence-based scholarly resources that focus on proposed policies/practices to apply to your selected healthcare issue/stressor.

1. The first resource is an article titled “The Role of Quality Improvement in Strengthening Health Systems: A Systematic Review.” The article was published in PLoS One in 2012 and was written by authors from several academic institutions. The article presents a systematic review of the literature on quality improvement interventions in healthcare settings. The authors conclude that quality improvement initiatives can improve healthcare outcomes, reduce costs, and enhance patient satisfaction. They also identify several best practices for designing and implementing quality improvement interventions, including engaging stakeholders, using data to drive decision-making, and ensuring that interventions are tailored to the local context.
2. The second resource is a report titled “Quality Improvement in Healthcare: A Framework for Achieving Quality Improvement.” The report was published by the National Quality Forum in 2016 and was written by a panel of experts from various healthcare organizations. The report presents a framework for achieving quality improvement in healthcare that includes six key domains: patient safety, patient-centeredness, effectiveness, efficiency, timeliness, and equity. The report also identifies several best practices for achieving quality improvement, including engaging patients and families, using data to inform decision-making, and building a culture of continuous improvement.

Overall, both resources provide valuable insights into the role of quality improvement in healthcare and offer practical recommendations for designing and implementing quality improvement initiatives.
