Project Implementation Check Points

My project, increasing pneumococcal vaccinations in adults 65 and over in a rural health clinic, will implement October 1, 2019.  Education for staff was to be completed on September 6, 2019 but due to an illness by the clinic manager, the meeting was cancelled.  Due to that reason, education was provided on September 10, 2019 to each nurses’ station.  There are four different nurses’ stations, so education was provided four times.  Posters and reading material were provided.  The staff said they would hang the posters and place the reading material out the last few days of September.

Data for the previous year had been pulled from the clinic’s data base.  The clinic manager pulled the information for me, eliminating any issues complying with HIPAA and confidentiality.

I will go to the office on Monday, September 30th and make sure things are in place.  The project will conclude on December 31, 2019.   During the project period time, I will check to make sure things are going well, answer any questions, and provide more material if needed.

During the month of January 2020, I will ask the clinic manager to pull the data for the three months.  I will also compile all the information and try to have Dr. Pahls help me with the statistical portion of my paper.  My goal is to have the information completed and disseminate the findings the latter part of March or the beginning of April.

I tried to paste a copy of my timeline into this blog but the computer is smarter than me.  Please click on the “timeline” link to view my timeline.  It is a rough timeline.  As the project unfolds, the timeline will be filled in.
