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

1.6K
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...

Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

2.5K
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...

Continuing Care

1.6K
Continuing care describes the variety of health, personal, and social services provided over a prolonged period. The need for continuing care is increasing because people are living longer. Many people do not have families or others to care for them. Continuing care is mainly for patients who are disabled, functionally dependent, or suffering from a terminal disease. It is available within institutional settings or in homes. Examples include nursing centers or facilities, assisted living,...

Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-I

1.9K
An interdisciplinary team includes many healthcare professionals working together and utilizing their skills, knowledge, and expertise to provide holistic and quality patient care.
Physicians
The physician's primary responsibility is to diagnose illness and direct the medical or surgical treatment of the condition. The authority to admit patients to a healthcare agency or institution and practice care within that setting is granted to physicians by the healthcare agency or institution...

Nursing Ethical Principles II01:27

Nursing Ethical Principles II

1.6K
Ethical principles are essential in guiding nurses to fulfill their responsibilities, focusing on the quality of nursing care and decision-making. These principles, including autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice, and fidelity, shape the ethical framework within healthcare settings.
Consider the following scenario, which illustrates how these principles are applied in the care of Mr. John, a fifty-year-old teacher diagnosed with metastatic liver cancer.
Initially, Mr. John's...

Area of Science:

  • Trauma Surgery
  • Geriatric Medicine
  • Palliative Care

Background:

  • Older adults represent 30% of US trauma patients but account for nearly 50% of trauma deaths.
  • The American College of Surgeons (ACS) published guidelines for geriatric trauma (2013) and palliative care (2017) to standardize care.
  • Quality metrics for palliative care and geriatrics can enhance trauma verification and performance improvement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss the integration of palliative care and geriatrics quality metrics into trauma verification.
  • To provide practical strategies for implementing these quality metrics in clinical practice.

Main Methods:

  • Review of ACS Verification, Review, and Consultation viewpoints.
  • Analysis of three institutional case studies on implementing geriatric and palliative care quality metrics.
  • Discussion of practical tips and takeaways for successful implementation.

Main Results:

  • Implementation strategies include targeted educational initiatives.
  • Development of institutional resource-based consultation tools.
  • Application of nurse-led frailty screening tools.

Conclusions:

  • Specialized care is crucial for vulnerable geriatric trauma patients.
  • Program implementation can be adapted to various institutional settings.
  • Quality metrics serve as a strength for trauma verification.
