A career in nursing calls for dedication and passion as it is not an essay task. As a nurse, I am determined to make sure I meet all my responsibilities and serve all the patients with energy and passion as I have learned throughout my career. This calls for experience and education, as well as strong support. There are various nursing organizations that I find effective in making sure that nurses across the globe are supported and well equipped with all the required skills.
The American Nurses Association (ANA) represents more than 4 million registered nurses, with the aim of making sure that there is improved quality health care for all. This makes ANA as the strongest voice for nurses in the USA. ANA advocates for high standards of nursing, safety amd ethical work environment, bolstering the health and wellness of nurses and advocating on health care issues that affect nurses and the public (ANA, 2020). Thus, I find ANA as the best nursing organization that will help me to be the best nurse and grow in my career.
National League for Nursing is another important nursing organization in my career. This is considering that the NLN is a platform for nurses to gain professional development, networking opportunities, testing services, nursing research grant, and public policy initiatives (NLN, 2020). NLN is a source of nursing education, training and grant supports.
The international Council of Nurses is an international nurses organization of more than 130 national nurses associations. It represents more than 20 million nurses worldwide. It ensures that there is quality nursing care, sound health policies, and advancement of nursing knowledge. ICN is a strong pillar in nursing quest to grow their career beyond the borders, and make sure that the future of nursing is strong (ICN, 2020). It is my goal to reach individuals requiring my nursing skills and nursing care and profession.

Improvement science models bring together research and evidence-based practice to identify the most effective ways to promote quality and safety in health care. As a central tenet of quality improvement, attention must be paid to the processes that contribute to outcomes.
In this Discussion, you examine quality improvement models and evaluate how they could be applied to address specific issues within health care organizations.
To prepare:
Evaluate each of the models and select two on which to focus for this Discussion.
Consider how each of the two models could be utilized in a health care organization to promote quality and safety. Think about the following:
How does the model bring together research and evidence-based practice to facilitate quality improvement?
How does the model contribute to a culture of quality and safety?
How does it address changes in process?
Reflect on the quality improvement issue and the health care setting that you are addressing for your Course Project. Of the two models that you have selected, determine which one you, as a nurse leader-manager, would use to address this issue. Also consider how this would relate to one or more of the IOMs six aims for quality and safety.
By Day 3
Post your analysis of how the two improvement models that you selected could foster a culture of quality and patient safety and facilitate changes in process that promote positive outcomes. Explain how you would use one of these models to address the quality improvement issue in the organization that you have selected for your Course Project, and how doing so would relate to one or more of the IOMs six aims for improving quality and safety.

Assignment 1: Product Development
Due Week 3 and worth 160 points
Health services continue to affect the gross domestic product, and this dramatic transformation has great demands on each dollar spent to deliver patient-centered products. Health care marketing must be repeatedly applied and practiced strategically to include environmental dimensions, such as technology, socioeconomics, competition, and regulatory.
That being said, in todays global economy, investors and potential entrepreneurs must tap into the so-called unexplored market. In this aspect, health care establishments must utilize marketing, advertising, as well as sales strategies when pursuing new customers (e.g., suppose a health care investor wanted to build a small hospital in a rural community); this would entail exploration and logistical experimentation to determine who will patronize the facility. In an impoverished neighborhood, the feasibility of having lucrative profits may see diminishing returns, and so the venture may be not worth the effort. Also, suppose that the potential investor wants to sell mosquito deterrents (e.g., bedside netting in malaria-infested regions of Asia or Africa); then it would be wise to investigate the number of beds that are actually in the village, and who would be willing to purchase them. These activities take into account the investor portfolio, as well as the feasibility of marketing and selling the product. Such exploration also examines competitors, cultural differences, andmost importantidentification of the customer.
Identify a local health care establishment (e.g., hospital, rehabilitation center, emergency medical center) and determine its product development practices.
