Resources

For this discussion, assume you have been assigned to form a committee to develop a policy for patient falls on the medical-surgical unit where you work. As the team leader in charge of this project, you should:

Identify the other health care members that you will select to be part of the committee.
Provide a rationale for your choice of at least two of the members you invited to the committee.
Describe two concepts and skills you will consider as part of your team leader role.
- What types of strategies will you include to facilitate cost-effective changes related to patient falls?
- Specifically, how will accountability for care delivery and nursing delegation be impacted by this policy?
Provide a well-supported rationale as part of your explanation.

Your initial posting should be at least 150 words, and you must make reference to the work of another writer (either as a quotation, paraphrase, or summary) to provide support for your ideas. The source can be the course text, another relevant book, any assigned readings, or an article you find on your own.
