Assignment: Absenteeism Productivity losses
Herzer, Niessen, Constenla, Ward, and Pronovost (2014) listed the cost of education as $3,579 of total pro- gram ($192,292) on central line-associated bloodstream infections prevention. The total initiative was a multiface- ted quality improvement program in ICUs reporting employee education as only a small part of efforts. The ba- sis of the initiative was to examine the cost-effectiveness of the Keystone ICU project (Waters et al., 2011) using hospi- tal data and nationally representative data sources. We excluded this study because the NPD economic impact was difficult to sort out from the impact of the other inter- ventions. The estimate of costs for education of clinicians was very low, creating questions about how itwas calculated.
Quinn et al. (2014) reported a cost avoidance of $1.6 million from nonventilator hospital-acquired pneumonia as a result of implementing oral nursing care. However, the cost andmethodsof educating thenurseswasnot described in the article; therefore, it was not included in the synthesis.
Finally, Simmons et al. (2017) studied trainingnonnursing staff to provide caloric supplementation for nutritionally at-risk nursing home residents. These authors concluded that it is cost-effective to train nonnurses to provide caloric supplementation, and the practice had a positive effect on the residents’ intake. This was excluded from our synthesis because the method of calculating the costs of training was unclear and the participantswere largely nonprofessionals, adding questions regarding correlation to NPD.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
