Stakeholders Whose Approval Would Be Required to Initiate an EBP

QI Project In large healthcare organizations, stakeholders whose approval would be required to initiate an EBP QI project include hospital administration, quality improvement committees, and frontline staff. Hospital administrators including the executive team, and department heads give out instructions, technical assistance, and resources for initiating the QI project. The quality improvement committee is responsible for quality review and support of proposed projects (Kawar et al., 2023). Thus, the committee will assess and determine if the project meets the organizational objectives, observes the regulatory rules, and follows quality standards. Frontline staff, including nurses, physicians, and other healthcare professionals, are very important for project success. Their participation and approval are necessary to bring down the hurdles and avoid resistance to change. In the long-term care facility, approval from the facility administration, quality improvement committee, and staff representative is essential. In the community health clinic settings, the approval from clinic leadership, staff, and quality improvement coordinator is essential.
