Nursing Implementation01:15

Nursing Implementation

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.
Accountability and Responsibility of a Nurse II01:09

Accountability and Responsibility of a Nurse II

Professional accountability in nursing is a multifaceted concept that encompasses professional ethics, legal standards, and employment expectations. This framework ensures that nurses maintain and elevate the quality of care while upholding the values of their profession. It compels them to treat patients, families, and colleagues with respect, compassion, and integrity.
For example, a nurse demonstrating respect and compassion might listen attentively to a patient's concerns, provide comfort...

SBAR II: Application of SBAR

SBAR is an effective communication tool used by healthcare professionals to communicate patient information accurately. SBAR stands for Situation, Background, Assessment, and Recommendation. For a better understanding, an example is given below.
SBAR Report from a Nurse to a Health Care Provider
S: "Hello, Dr. Smith. This is Jane, RN, from the Med Surg unit. I am calling to tell you about Ms. White in Room 210, who is experiencing increased pain and redness at her incision site. Her recent...

SBAR I: Understanding the Concept

Effective communication among healthcare professionals during hand-off reporting is essential to delivering safe and continuous patient care. Common professional interactions include reports to healthcare team members, hand-off, and transfer reports. Nurses routinely report information to other healthcare team members and also urgently contact healthcare providers to report changes in patient status.
Standardized methods of communication have been developed to ensure that information is...

Guidelines and Strategies for Safe Computer Charting

The guidelines and strategies provided by the American Nurses Association (ANA) and the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) offer essential principles for ensuring safe and secure computer charting systems in healthcare settings. Let's break down each recommendation:

Obedience01:08

Obedience

According to obedience research, we may harm others under the forceful pressures of an authority figure (Milgram, 1974). How about if the inappropriate orders were delivered with less force? The increasing interdependence between nurses and physicians compelled Hofling and his colleagues to explore nurses’ reactions to a potentially harmful medical request made by the perceived authority figure, the doctor (Hofling, Brotzman, Dalrymple, Graves, & Pierce, 1966). In this situation, obedience...

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Nursing Practice
  • Patient Safety

Background:

  • Medication errors pose a significant risk in healthcare settings.
  • Barcode Medication Administration (BCMA) is a key technology for improving medication safety.
  • Understanding user experience is crucial for successful technology implementation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate nurses' expectations, experiences, and attitudes toward BCMA.
  • To identify factors influencing the adoption and effectiveness of BCMA.
  • To inform strategies for optimizing BCMA implementation and usability.

Main Methods:

  • A 3-phase study design was employed.
  • Data were collected before, during, and after BCMA implementation.
  • Qualitative and quantitative methods assessed nurses' perceptions.

Main Results:

  • Nurses' initial expectations and subsequent experiences with BCMA were documented.
  • Attitudes towards BCMA were influenced by various factors.
  • Physical components like carts and scanners were identified as sources of negative attitudes.

Conclusions:

  • BCMA implementation requires careful consideration of the physical technology.
  • Addressing usability issues with BCMA hardware is essential for positive user attitudes.
  • Optimizing the physical aspects of BCMA can enhance its effectiveness in reducing medication errors.
