Implementation Process Outcomes

The implementation process will be that every nurse will be doing both the education and screenings by the first week once we make the change in practice. The nurse manager will ensure that all nurses are educated on the relaxation techniques and screenings, and that they are being done with every COPD admission. By the second appointment for the COPD patients, our patients will be screened on performing the relaxation techniques correctly, PHQ-9, GAD-7 questionnaires, and if the patient has been to the hospital for a COPD exacerbation. We will continue to do these screenings at every appointment. We will see our COPD patients every 3 months to evaluate. We will see them at the end of the year and compare their current numbers to their numbers in the beginning of the year. Our nurses will have quarterly meetings to ensure everyone is teaching their relaxation techniques correctly and are doing their questionnaires. Specific barriers that we could run into is nursing staff rushing through the demonstration of the relaxation techniques and rushing the patients during their PHQ-9 and GAD-7questionsairs. This will be eliminated by giving the nurses more time when checking in COPD patients.
