When you work with nurses, you are working with a group of verystrong willed people, who do not always embrace change, especiallyif they have the “this is the way I have always done it and it’sworked for me” attitude. You have chosen your guideline;(The clinical practice guideline (CPG) chosen to help withchanging the current problem of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs)in our unit is “Infection prevention and control ofhealthcare-associated infections in primary and community care” bythe National Institute for Health and Clinical Practice(NICE)). you know it needs to be implemented. Whatbarriers and roadblocks do you expect to encounter? How will youcreate an environment receptive to the change you propose? Pleasebe sure to provide specific examples of how you would manage thischange and specific barriers you feel you may encounter.
Thanks you for any help
