Hello! I am Adriel, and I will discuss the training techniques for healthcare staff in my presentation. The significance of policy and practice guidelines in enhancing the quality of care for patients with diabetes will be highlighted. In addition, strategies for effectively engaging stakeholders and working with them to achieve optimal patient outcomes will be discussed.

Mercy Medical Centre will adhere to the guidelines made by the American Diabetes Association. According to ADA, the hospital should perform HgbA1c testing thrice a year and foot exams once a year (American Diabetes Association (2021). Patients should also receive education on self-care management of diabetes. In order to assess glucose levels in patients, utilizing technology and providing nursing staff with appropriate training is recommended. Given the latest technological advancements, it is important to consider individual preferences when determining the type of technical assistance to be used.
The following are the optimal diabetes treatment strategies that nurses should employ:

The HgbA1c test and feet diagnostic procedures are essential for the early diagnosis of diabetes. MMC must be efficient in these problematic areas. Pre-diabetes affects 89% of people in the US. The amount spent on diabetes diagnoses in the US was analyzed up to $303 billion in 2018 (Kerr et al., 2019). Therefore, there is a need to improve self-care practices and early diagnostic screening of patients.

Evidence-based practice (EBP) in healthcare has enabled health care workers to make decision based on evidence and promote patient safety. To effectively practice EBP, various information sources must be used, including scientific literature, online websites, and patient desires and values. The hospital should conduct training sessions on the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes to inform and prepare the medical staff, which includes physicians, pharmacists, and healthcare support personnel (Dyson et al., 2018)
Integrating transparency and accountability among teammates in healthcare systems has many benefits. Effective leadership strategies can educate, encourage, and supervise the team’s activities. An organization should establish a dependable and timely feedback mechanism to assess its performance, identify successes and failures, make prompt adjustments, and develop long-term goals. Such metrics are critical for monitoring and improving organizational performance, as emphasized by Rossing et al. (2022).
There are several strategies that can be used to increase the nursing staff’s engagement and commitment to the healthcare system. It is possible by introducing collaboration among healthcare staff where nurse leader encourages interdisciplinary communication (Wymer et al., 2021). The nursing staff will be able to share the problems in the daily working practice and will be able to help each other in providing better patient care. Furthermore, using reward and appreciation as the best tactic to enhance nurses’ buy-in is the optimal choice. Nurses will encourage patients to undergo the HgbA1c screening to be rewarded for providing quality healthcare services (Specchia et al., 2021).
The effectiveness of strategies will be increased stakeholders’ awareness regarding using new policies and training sessions for better patient care. Furthermore, the survey will accurately collect the strategies’ success and input of the nursing staff in training sessions.
In order to measure the success of training sessions, nurse engagement is one of the major elements to evaluate. The nurse’s response toward the new practices and diabetic patient care standards can depict their input. The stallholder’s buy-in will be increased by the improved performance of nursing staff and enhanced patient care standards (Reidy et al., 2020). Nurses’ survey feedback will indicate the success of the training session and show the nursing staff’s happiness and dissati
