## **Interview and Interdisciplinary Issue Identification: Interview Guide**
For the Interviews and Interdisciplinary Issue identification assessment, your first step will be to interview a classmate, a nursing colleague, administrator, business partner, or another appropriate person who could provide you with sufficient information regarding an organizational problem that they are experiencing or have experienced, or an area in which they are seeking improvements. This guide provides a selection of questions that you should consider asking your interviewee. They are by no means questions you must ask, or the only questions you should ask. Feel free to ask your own questions and follow-ups as the interview proceeds. These are merely a guide to get you started.
****Sample questions****
· How would you describe your organization?
· What is your position within the organization?
· What are your primary duties in your position?
· How would you describe some current or past issues within your organization?
· How did or do these issues affect your ability to complete your duties?
· How have you, or the organization, attempted to address these issues?
· What has been done and what were the results?
· What has been the role or actions of leadership in any attempts to address these issues?
· How effective do you think their actions have been?
· What is the general attitude toward interdisciplinary collaboration at your organization?
· Have you experienced working on an interdisciplinary or interprofessional team?
· How would you characterize the experience?
· To what degree do you think overall organizational attitudes toward collaboration influenced this experience?
**## Assessment2Instruction.pdf**
For this assessment, you will create a 2-3 page report on an interview you have
conducted with a health care professional. You will identify an issue from the interview
that could be improved with an interdisciplinary approach, and review best practices and
evidence to address the issue.
Introduction
As a baccalaureate-prepared nurse, your participation and leadership in interdisciplinary
teams will be vital to the health outcomes for your patients and organization. One way to
approach designing an improvement project is to use the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA)
cycle. The Institute for Healthcare Improvement describes it thus:
The Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle is shorthand for testing a
change in the real work setting—by planning it, trying it, observing the
results, and acting on what is learned. This is the scientific method
adapted for action-oriented learning…Essentially, the PDSA cycle
helps you test out change ideas on a smaller scale before evaluating
the results and making adjustments before potentially launching into a
somewhat larger scale project (n.d.).
You might also recognize that the PDSA cycle resembles the nursing process. The
benefit of gaining experience with this model of project design is that it provides nurses
with an opportunity to ideate and lead improvements. For this assessment, you will not
be implementing all of the PDSA cycle. Instead, you are being asked to interview a
health care professional of your choice to determine what kind of interdisciplinary
problem he or she is experiencing or has experienced in the workplace. This interview,
in Assessment 2, will inform the research that you will conduct to propose a plan for
interdisciplinary collaboration in Assessment 3.
It would be an excellent choice to complete the PDSA Cycle activity prior to developing
the report. The activity consists of four questions that create the opportunity to check
your understanding of best practices related to each stage of the PDSA cycle. The
information gained from completing this formative will promote your success with the
Interview and Interdisciplinary Issue Identification report. This will take just a few
minutes of your time and is not graded.

Professional Context
This assessment will introduce the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) Model to create change
in an organization. By interviewing a colleague of your choice, you will begin gathering
information about an interprofessional collaboration problem that your colleague is
experiencing or has experienced. You will identify a change theory and leadership
strategies to help solve this problem.
Additional Requirements
● Length of submission: Use the provided template. Most submissions will
be 2 to 4 pages in length. Be sure to include a reference page at the end of
the plan.
● Number of references: Cite a minimum of 3 sources of scholarly or
professional evidence that support your central ideas. Resources should be
no more than 5 years old.
● APA formatting: Make sure that in-text citations and reference list follow
current APA style.
Portfolio Prompt: Remember to save the final assessment to your ePortfolio so that
you may refer to it as you complete the final Capstone course.
Scenario
This assessment is the first of three related assessments in which you will gather
interview information (Assessment 2); design a proposal for interdisciplinary
problem-solving, (Assessment 3); and report on how an interdisciplinary improvement
plan could be implemented in a place of practice (Assessment 4). At the end of the
course, your interviewee will have a proposal plan based on the PDSA cycle that he or
she could present to stakeholders to address an interdisciplinary problem in the
workplace.
For this assessment, you will need to interview a health care professional such as a
fellow learner, nursing colleague, administrator, business partner, or another appropriate
person who could provide you with sufficient information regarding an organizational
problem that he or she is experiencing or has experienced, or an area where they are
seeking improvements. Consult the Interview Guide [DOCX]
