(1) Creates a histogram that visually depicts the distribution for the one selected variable in a data set. Ensures the histogram is accurate, well constructed, and easy to interpret.
* Your histograms should meet all criteria: See attachment on BINS below in the summary. **a. You must “label” your histograms correctly, i.e., with the proper title and labels on the x-horizontal (bins), and y-vertical (frequency) axes. b. You must do 1 histogram. Do not mix the 3 measures if you choose to do all three case measures because the units are different. c. You must have consistent intervals or ranges). **d. Your histograms need to have “bins,” i.e., ranges for the x-axis. Bins are equal intervals of your data. Think of bins like “buckets” or ranges, i.e., 0-20, 21-40, 41-60, 61-80, >100.

(2) Writes a recommendation for a decision and plan of action based on a data analysis and includes a rationale and justification supported with scholarly literature.
Improving Satisfaction: Improving patient satisfaction in a skilled nursing facility requires a detailed and strategic approach. This action plan outlines key recommendations to address patient feedback, utilize established survey tools, and ensure continuous improvement while maintaining areas of high performance. Analyzing Patient Feedback To enhance overall patient satisfaction, it is crucial to review feedback from patients, particularly those who reported satisfaction levels at or below a score of 60. By analyzing these specific responses, we can pinpoint precise areas that need improvement. Understanding how patients answered survey questions will provide deeper insights into their concerns and experiences
* it is recommended to use the CAHPS survey tool if it is not already in use. The CAHPS survey is a well-recognized instrument for measuring patient satisfaction and has been shown to help discuss best practices, share data with patient advisory councils, and improve overall provider performance. Implementing this tool can assist Nursing Home X in focusing on areas with the greatest opportunity for enhancing patient satisfaction and subsequently improving reimbursement rates.
* Additionally, it is advantageous to review feedback to identify themes and trends associated with the highest patient satisfaction scores. This dual approach ensures that our action plans to improve the lowest-scoring areas do not negatively affect the areas receiving the greatest positive feedback. Maintaining Positive Feedback Areas It is important to ensure that improvements in targeted areas do not detract from the areas already performing well. By identifying and preserving the elements that contribute to high satisfaction scores, we can maintain a balance that supports overall patient satisfaction.
* Furthermore, setting a clear timeline with specific milestones for when actions should be completed will make the plan more concrete and easier to implement. Monitoring and Evaluation The effectiveness of the implemented changes should be monitored and evaluated over time. This can involve setting specific goals for improvement and using follow-up surveys to measure progress.
(3) Writes clearly and concisely. Ensures grammar, mechanics, and APA formatting are error free.
* Do more research to broaden your perspective on what you are writing about. There is only one reference to support the paper. Support all major concepts, numbers, statistics, and dates with APA7 references and in-text citations. Effective care transitions: Reducing readmissions to improve patient care and outcomes. Professional Case Management. Your reference is incomplete. You must have the exact URL or the DOI. A DOI (Digital Object Identifier) is a permanent and unique identifier assigned to digital documents such as journal articles, research papers, reports, and datasets. It provides a stable link to access the document online. Example of a DOI: Format: 10.1038/s41586-020-2649-2 DOI URL:
Do not use bulletpoints without a clear description of your content. It is unclear or cryptic. Use paragraph form for explaining the details of your plan
