Question Description: In order to formulate your evidence-based practice (EBP), you need to assess your organization. In this assignment, you will be responsible for setting the stage for EBP. This assignment is conducted in two parts: an organizational cultural and readiness assessment and the proposal/problem statement and literature review, which you completed in NUR-550.

Section A: Organizational Culture and Readiness Assessment

It is essential to understand the culture of the organization in order to begin assessing its readiness for EBP implementation. Select an appropriate organizational culture survey tool and use this instrument to assess the organization’s readiness.

Make sure to include the rationale for the survey category scores that were significantly high and low, incorporating details or examples. Explain how to integrate clinical inquiry into the organization.
Submit a summary of your results. The actual survey results do not need to be included.

Change is inevitable, and organizations need to ensure that they are open to or ready to change. By embracing change, organizations benefit from numerous benefits, including improving their efficiency and productivity. Failure for an organization to embrace change, they losses their market share to their competitors, and they may be eventually driven out of business. Also, it creates a bad reputation for its customers as they feel dissatisfied with the services provided.  Health organizations need to assess their readiness for change before implementing new procedures, technologies, or policies.   A change readiness assessment helps the management to gauge the organization’s preparedness to change.  When implementing EBP, the management needs to review different organization components, including organizational culture, knowledge and skills, resources, and others. In this assignment, the “Organizational Readiness for Change Assessment (ORCA) tool” was applied to evaluate the organization’s readiness to change.  ORCA is a tool proposed by Sharp and Sales
