Designing and Measuring Outcomes

Designing and Measuring OutcomesAs noted in previous courses of the DNP program, it is essential to design measurable outcomes that can guide the development, implementation, and evaluation of an initiative.

Think about the various groups that are invested in—or that may be affected by—this change. What measures would stakeholders need in order to help determine if the change aligns with organizational priorities and is successful in achieving its intended outcomes? Why is it important to establish accountability around this initiative?To prepare:Look at outcomes established for at least one      evidence-based change currently underway or previously accomplished within      your practicum setting.
