Health care providers that have high nurse-patient ratios characteristically suffer from significant issues. Health professions are restricted to base their practice on the evidence gathered rather than to the traditional beliefs. An implementation may bring with it some failures as none has ever been experienced before. On the change model of this implementation plan, I am going to use mainly the Iowa model of the application.
The Iowa Model
The application model plan offers a systematic way of looking at the issues about the clinical practice. Therefore, giving the framework to lower the nurse to patient ratio. It incorporates research into clinical practice. This method is started when nurses are encouraged to find the problem. Here the problem at hand is a high nurse to patient ratio, and so the personalized care to the patients cannot be realized (MacPhee, Dahinten, & Havaei, 2017). The problem is found to be in lieu with the priorities of the organization and so implementation proceeds. In the first stages, the committee collects, scrutinize, and assess the initial evidence to the current problem. Sufficient evidence is obtained making it possible for the committee of experts to start the practice change. The implementation of the Iowa model is as follows: pilot, evaluation, adoption, and change.

The purpose of piloting is to figure out the feasibility and effectiveness of this switch to the team. It is important to know whether the guidelines can be practiced as per the way they were intended and if the outcomes can be realized within the 12-month duration. Outsourcing other nursing professionals may be
