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

1.5K
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...

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

52
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...

Aneurysm management involves either conservative medical therapy or surgical intervention, depending on the size and symptoms of the aneurysm. Conservative management is generally reserved for smaller, asymptomatic aneurysms, while larger or symptomatic aneurysms often necessitate surgical repair.Conservative Medical TherapyFor small, asymptomatic aneurysms, particularly abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) less than 5.5 centimeters in diameter, conservative medical therapy is recommended.

Area of Science:

  • Geriatric medicine
  • Interprofessional education
  • Healthcare workforce development

Background:

  • The global rise in the geriatric population necessitates improved healthcare systems and collaborative team-based approaches.
  • Health science learners require training in interprofessional collaboration to effectively manage common geriatric conditions.
  • Academic medical centers are urged to implement active learning strategies for undergraduate healthcare students.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of the Geriatrics Champions Program, an interprofessional team-based learning activity.
  • To assess the impact of the program on health science learners' preparedness for collaborative geriatric care.
  • To determine factors influencing team performance in a geriatric competency-based learning environment.

Main Methods:

  • A 24-month Geriatrics Champions Program involving 768 learners and 151 faculty across multiple health professions.
  • Learners were organized into interprofessional teams that met quarterly, focusing on specific geriatric domains.
  • Evaluation included individual and team Readiness Assessment Tests (iRAT and tRAT) and Likert scale surveys.

Main Results:

  • Team Readiness Assessment Test (tRAT) scores were significantly higher (30%) than individual scores (iRAT).
  • Higher team performance was associated with greater session attendance, diverse professional representation, and consistent past attendance.
  • Post-program surveys indicated learners felt better prepared for interprofessional geriatric care.

Conclusions:

  • Learners recognized the superiority of team performance over individual efforts in geriatric care.
  • The Geriatrics Champions Program received positive feedback, enhancing learner confidence and readiness.
  • The program's benefits likely extend beyond immediate skill acquisition, fostering long-term collaborative practice.
