VCI Summary 9010
The virtual check-in (VCI) was dedicated to working through revisions for the institutional review board (IRB) and practicum and moving forward with the capstone proposal phase. The quality improvement project to enhance telehealth follow-up compliance and patient adherence in an outpatient psychiatric clinic was discussed. Professional structuring of the VCI summary and incorporation of the VCI review into the proposal and IRB submission process were emphasized. Details were clarified about the exclusion of demographic data and confirmation of the sample size (40-60 patients).
Meeting Details
The virtual check-in took place on May 01 during the practicum project phase and was approximately 25 minutes in length. The participants were the DNP student, the site preceptor in a psychiatric outpatient unit, and the faculty mentor. The meeting focused on the need for IRB approval, project implementation, and documentation, including data collection and compliance tracking. Faculty gave detailed information about the revision process and how to move forward through approval processes (Qualtrics/IRB, etc.). Minor IRB corrections and further development of project implementation plans were recommended. Clarifications provided on size and criteria for data inclusion.
Summary of Key Points
The key guidance received emphasized the role of project alignment to quality improvement and evidence-based practice. The focus is on meeting its 20% targets to increase compliance, from 35.3% to 50.7%, over 12 weeks, while decreasing no-shows, emergency visits, and psychiatric relapses. Implementation involves employee training, reminders (72, 48, and 24 hours before), and ongoing checks via EHR. Instruction also included using EHR systems for monitoring compliance and documentation. Faculty agreed that the work on the project would not be significantly delayed by minor IRB revisions.
Think about how well your project is going. Consider the progress of your project.
Reflect on Project Progress
The project’s progress was found to be robust in terms of planning, objectives, and project implementation. Feedback showed that the project is feasible and meets clinical needs well. Faculty and preceptor interaction helps to meet program milestones and timely completion. The discussion further illustrated the importance of integrating technology and human interaction. The developments indicate that the implementation is ready and awaits IRB approval.
Area of Uncertainty
There is still some uncertainty, such as final IRB approval and minor documentation changes. There’s a need for clarity about the time frame for submission and confirmation of approval. There is also uncertainty about data generalizability and scalability. The need to tackle these uncertainties is critical before submission and full project completion.
