Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

2.8K
Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

211
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

Cancer Therapies

9.8K
Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

Cancer Prevention

7.6K
Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Patient Support Services
  • Healthcare Professional Development

Background:

  • Trained peer navigators provide unique support and mentorship to cancer patients and caregivers.
  • Defining the essential competencies for prostate cancer (PC) peer navigators is crucial for integrating them into the cancer care system.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically identify and verify core competencies for PC peer navigators.
  • To develop a competency framework for PC peer navigators.

Main Methods:

  • Phase 1: Formative research including literature review, environmental scan, and secondary analysis of qualitative interviews.
  • Phase 2: Drafting and mapping of competencies.
  • Phase 3: Anonymous survey of expert stakeholders (survivors, caregivers, healthcare providers) to endorse and rank competencies.

Main Results:

  • Six core competency domains were identified: self as navigator, communication, knowledge/information, patient-centered care facilitation, eHealth/technology, and caregiver needs.
  • Forty-seven core competency statements were mapped to these domains.
  • 89% of competency statements were endorsed by 27 expert stakeholders, with high priority ratings.

Conclusions:

  • This study presents the first comprehensive list of core competencies for PC peer navigators.
  • The developed competency framework can guide the standardization of the PC peer navigator role and training programs.
