Project Summary: here are multiple ways to address change when considering a quality improvement (QI) initiative. Change models, theories, and QI tools provide foundational elements to develop QI initiatives. The failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), plan-do-study-act (PDSA), and root cause analysis (RCA) are three of the more commonly used QI tools. A nurse who understands these various QI components is able to choose the right ones to impact a QI concern. This activity will allow you to explore potential QI scenarios and foster your ability to apply an appropriate QI tool and a change theory or model to a specific scenario. This assignment supports the skills of assessing and analyzing elements that impact the development of a QI initiative
