Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching II: Planning and Implementation

2.3K
Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about...

Hospitals-II

1.2K
Hospitals provide inpatient and outpatient services. Inpatient services provide care to patients that stay in the hospital for an extended period, ranging from days to months. Examples of inpatient services include intensive care units, hospital wards, or surgeries. Outpatient services provide care to patients who come to a hospital for a diagnostic or treatment but do not stay overnight —for example, diagnostic tests, surgical procedures, or health education.

Nursing Implementation01:15

Nursing Implementation

6.5K
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.

Planning Nursing Care I

6.4K
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...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

High preceptor support significantly improves newly licensed registered nurse (NLRN) competency and retention. Adequate time, shared assignments, and fewer preceptees per preceptor are key factors for successful NLRN transition-to-practice programs.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Healthcare Workforce Development
  • Clinical Mentorship

Background:

  • Preceptors are integral to nursing, yet the newly licensed registered nurse (NLRN) perspective on preceptor relationships and program effectiveness remains underexplored.
  • The National Council of State Boards of Nursing has initiated research into transition-to-practice programs, including the crucial role of preceptors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To characterize newly licensed registered nurse (NLRN) preceptorship models.
  • To evaluate the impact of these preceptorships on NLRN competency and retention.

Main Methods:

  • Hospitals were categorized into high and low preceptor support groups based on scheduling alignment, assignment sharing, preceptor release time, and preceptor-to-NLRN ratios.
  • Data were collected from 82 hospitals to assess these support structures.

Main Results:

  • Half of the hospitals demonstrated high preceptor support, while the other half exhibited low support.
  • Newly licensed registered nurses (NLRNs) and their preceptors in high-support settings reported higher perceived competence and a more positive preceptor experience.
  • NLRN retention rates were notably higher in hospitals with high preceptor support.

Conclusions:

  • Implementing high preceptor support models is crucial for enhancing NLRN competence and retention.
  • Key strategies include ensuring adequate preceptor-NLRN time, facilitating shared shift and patient assignments, and maintaining a low ratio of preceptees per preceptor.
