NR542 Managing Data and Information

Week 1 Discussion

Clinical Nurses and Information Management

Think about an information-management problem that could be resolved with a database. You will use this problem and suggested database as the foundation to build your database over the next eight weeks. Explain the problem in detail and support the need to solve the problem with scholarly literature (consider patient. nursing practice, management, or education situations). Think about a situation for which you wish to capture data over a long period of time and for which you want to study various relationships. Provide three questions that you would like to see answered via database support.

Week 2 Discussion

Project Entities and Relationships

As you further consider the information problems and design of the database from your week 1 discussion

Name two-to-five entities (also known as entity classes in your text) that will be part of your database.

Explain why you have chosen these entities.

Using the Chen format as shown and discussed in the Oppel text, draw an entity-relationship (E-R) diagram for two of the entities, name the identifier for the selected entitiies, and attach the drawing to your discussion post. Remember, an entity-relationship requires at least one other entity. Use a software program or Microsoft Word symbols to depict your diagram aspects

Nomenclature and Data Concepts

MSN Collaboration Cafe Guidelines and Rubric Download MSN Collaboration Cafe Guidelines and Rubric

Please consider the following:

Are you aware of a nursing nomenclature recognized by the American Nurses Association (ANA) being used in your setting, and if so does it serve to clearly and comprehensively represent nursing care and nursing practice at your work setting? Why or why not?

Could an ANA-recognized nomenclature be used in your database project? Why or why not?

Database Life Cycle

Based on the study phase of your database life cycle

Describe how and why you selected the entities, attributes and determined entity relationships

Describe in detail the model of design phase you are in with your database project and rationale.

Attach your current draft for feedback and please provide your feedback on the work of your peers.

Week 5 Discussion

Collaboration Cafe

Share your information-management strategy (described in the lecture) for managing healthcare data/information in your facility to support evidence-based practice and relate how this strategy fits within the data-information-knowledge-wisdom (DIKW) model.

Provide an update on:

Challenges you have experienced in converting the data model to a relational schema.

The approach you took to develop a form and a view.

Insights about databases have you gained from converting the data model?

Remember the course project on relational schema is due this week.

Week 3 Project  

Database Plan

Purpose

This paper is intended to produce a plan for developing the database that must be submitted in Week 7 of this course. Students will gain experience in addressing key elements of a database plan.

Course Outcomes

Through this assignment, the student will demonstrate the ability to:

(CO#1) Utilize critical inquiry and judgment to evaluate the design, development, implementation, and outcomes of data management strategies for nursing and healthcare data. (PO 5)

Please Note: The database project will be developed in Microsoft Excel or Access

Preparing the Paper

Criteria for Content:

An introduction informs about the topic of the paper and how it is organized.

Explanation of the selected problem and why it needs a database as an information-management solution

Explanation of a conceptual data model for the planned database

All entities planned for the database are named.

A justification or rationale for each entity is provided.

The E-R diagram for each entity is discussed briefly in the text and is found in an appendix. The E-R diagrams can be created for individual entities mapped to all other relevant entities or a single E-R diagram showing all entities and their relationships may be provided.

The identifier for each entity is named. The identifier can be narrated in the paper or included with the E-R diagram in the appendix.

The relationships between entities are discussed briefly in text and illustrated, including cardinality, in the E-R diagram in the appendix or in a separate appendix.

Three questions planned for the database are provided. The original questions presented in week 1 discussion may be used, or revised questions may be presented.

A conclusion that recaps the paper and discusses insights gained from working on this assignment is presented.

Criteria for Paper Format and Special Instructions:

E-R diagrams will be in an appendix with your 3 questions on the document

Illustrations of entity relationships will be in an appendix

Drawings can be done manually, with Microsoft Office tools, or with third-party software

The database project will be developed in Microsoft Ecxel or Access

All aspects of the paper must be in APA format as expressed in the current edition

Only scholarly literature is used to support decisions

The paper (excluding the title page, references, and appendices) must be 2-4 pages.

A minimum of 3 references are required. One of the course texts may be used as a reference.

Grammar, spelling, punctuation, citations, and references are consistent with formal academic writing.

Week 5 Project  

Relational Schema

Purpose

This paper is intended to facilitate the database project through identification of the relational schema underlying the planned database.

Course Outcomes

Through this assignment, the student will demonstrate the ability to:

(CO#4) Synthesize contributions of the data-information-knowledge-wisdom model and database principles and practices to the support of evidence-based practice (PO 11)

Requirements

In a 2-to-3-page paper, explain the concept of relational tables and submit all of the relational tables for the database. Provide at least one data characteristic for each attribute. Explain how the tables relate to each other. Name the primary key for each table. Confirm any secondary keys and explain why they are used.

Preparing the Assignment

Please Note: The database project will be developed in Microsoft Excel or Access.  Your three questions should be included on the diagram.

Criteria for Content:

An introduction informs the reader about the topic of the paper and how the paper will be organized

The concept of relational tables is explained briefly

The complete Entity-Relationship diagram will be updated from the initial diagram included in your Week 3 assignment incorporating any changes that were necessary to address your three questions and from your relational table work in this Week 5 assignment.  Your three questions should be included on the diagram. The updated diagram will include the necessary entities, attributes including primary and secondary keys, and cardinality rules (i.e. properly drawn lines and symbols). If possible, please indicate which entities and/or attributes will utilize standard nomenclature.

Relational tables, each with a unique name, are presented in standard relational-table format

For each relational table, attributes are named, along with one data characteristic for each attribute. This content can be presented in narrative form, as individual tables, or in vertical lists
