Planning Nursing Care I

Planning Nursing Care I

The planning phase of the nursing process helps nurses set priorities, outline patient-centered goals and expected outcomes, and tailor nursing interventions to align with the aligned care plan. Through the planning phase, the nurse applies critical thinking skills to align and develop interventions according to the patient's needs. It provides continuity of care allowing patients to receive the maximum benefit from treatment. It serves as a pilot plan for allocating individual staff to a...

Planning Nursing Care II

Planning Nursing Care II

A nursing care plan can present in two forms: informal and formal. Informal is a care plan for the individual use of the nurse and goals they wish to accomplish during their shift. Informal care plans are not included in the patient chart. A formal nursing care plan is a written or computerized guide that organizes patient care. It is further subdivided into two: standardized and individualized care plans. Standardized care plans are pre-populated care plans for specific patient populations,...

Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic illness...

Statistical Software for Data Analysis and Clinical Trials

Statistical Software for Data Analysis and Clinical Trials

Statistical software is pivotal in data analysis and clinical trials by providing tools to analyze data, draw conclusions, and make predictions. These software packages range from simple data management applications to complex analytical platforms, supporting various statistical tests, models, and simulation techniques. Their significance lies in their ability to handle vast amounts of data with precision and efficiency, enabling researchers to validate hypotheses, identify trends, and make...

Health Literacy

Health Literacy

Health literacy is an individual's or a community's capacity to comprehend, receive, read, and use relevant healthcare information and services. The World Health Organization (WHO, 2018) defines health literacy as the cognitive and social skills that determine the ability of individuals to gain access to, understand, and use information in ways that promote and maintain good health. As a result, the WHO helps individuals manage long-term health concerns, participate in preventative programs,...

Area of Science:

Health Sciences Librarianship
Academic Medicine
Information Science

Background:

The International Campaign to Revitalise Academic Medicine (ICRAM) developed future scenarios.
These scenarios offer a framework for exploring potential futures in academic medicine.
Health sciences libraries are integral to academic medicine and require future-oriented planning.

Purpose of the Study:

To adapt ICRAM Future Scenarios for developing plausible futures for health sciences libraries.
To explore how health sciences libraries might evolve in response to various external forces.
To provide a tool for strategic thinking within the academic health sciences library community.

Main Methods:

An educational workshop involving Association of Academic Health Sciences Libraries (AAHSL) directors and AAHSL/NLM Fellows.
15 groups collaboratively developed plausible future stories based on five ICRAM scenarios.
Utilized scenario planning as a method to envision library futures.

Main Results:

Generated 15 distinct plausible future stories for health sciences libraries.
Identified potential changes in librarian roles, library utilization, and physical spaces.
Scenarios addressed impacts of technology, scholarly communication, learning environments, and healthcare economics.

Conclusions:

Health sciences libraries are influenced by economic pressures, technological advancements, and evolving healthcare and scholarly communication models.
Future scenarios, incorporating elements from ICRAM, will significantly impact academic health sciences libraries.
Common themes emerged, offering actionable insights for current strategic planning and future preparedness.
