To prepare: Select one public policy that currently is impacting you and your practice. Consider the following: What health care driver was the policy designed to address: cost, quality, access, or a combination? Does the policy appear to be achieving its intended results? On what data are you basing your assumption? What have been the effects (adverse or positive) of this policy on health care cost, quality, and access? How is this policy affecting your nursing practice? Next, select a health care issue—something you see or experience on a daily basis—about which you would like to influence a practice change through the policy process. Review the Learning Resources, focusing on Kingdon’s Model. How would you utilize this model to guide your policy development? Post a brief description of a public policy that is having an impact on your practice; summarize your analysis of the policy using the bulleted list above as a guide. Then, summarize the issue you would like to influence though a change in public policy, and outline how you would utilize Kingdon’s Model to guide your policy development.
