Abstract:
A nurse project consultant role empowered 3 critical care nurses to expand their scope of practice beyond the bedside and engage within complex health care delivery systems to reduce harms in the intensive care unit. As members of an interdisciplinary team, the nurse project consultants contributed their clinical expertise and systems knowledge to develop innovations that optimize care provided in the intensive care unit. This article discusses the formal development of and institutional support for the nurse project consultant role. The nurse project consultants’ responsibilities within a group of quality improvement initiatives are described and their challenges and lessons learned discussed. The nurse project consultant role is a new model of engaging critical care nurses as leaders in health care redesign.

Abstract:
5 years ago we embarked on a series of novel developments to improve our DGH neurology services. The key was ever closer integrated working between consultant neurologists and specialist nurses with support from our Trust and commissioners.We highlight 6 very diverse ongoing projects:1. Acute neurology ward referrals have increased by 49% between 2016-2021 with nurses triaging referrals prior to consultant review.2. Post discharge nurse telephone review for selected patients since 2020 to try and reduce readmission rates.3. Consultant delivered helpline for all local GPs Monday to Friday since 2020 to discuss urgent cases of concern.4. Nurse delivered lumbar puncture service, since 2019 138 procedures carried out.5. Diagnostic coding for all neurology outpatients started in 2021. Within 8 months all 5 consultants were coding over 70% of attendances.6. Patient initiated follow up (PIFU) – 2020 NHS England initiative. Specialist nurse Helpline for patients with epilepsy, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson’s running successfully since 2018.Service improvements need not be expensive or onerous but require imagination and team cohesion. We strongly recommend others to try what seems most appropriate to their service.

Full text
Abstract:
ABSTRACTThe general aim of this thesis was to investigate behavioral change communication at nurse-led chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) clinics in primary health care, focusing on communication in self-management and smoking cessation for patients with COPD.Designs: Observational, prospective observational and experimental designs were used.Methods: To explore and describe the structure and content of self-management education and smoking cessation communication, consultations between patients (n=30) and nurses (n=7) were videotaped and analyzed with three instruments: Consulting Map (CM), the Motivational Interviewing Treatment Integrity (MITI) scale and the Client Language Assessment in Motivational Interviewing (CLAMI). To examine the effects of structured self-management education, patients with COPD (n=52) were randomized in an intervention and a control group. Patients’ quality of life (QoL), knowledge about COPD and smoking cessation were examined with a questionnaire on knowledge about COPD and smoking habits and with St. George’s Respiratory Questionnaire, addressing QoL. Results: The findings from the videotaped consultations showed that communication about the reasons for consultation mainly concerned medical and physical problems and (to a certain extent) patients´ perceptions. Two consultations ended with shared understanding, but none of the patients received an individual treatment-plan. In the smoking cessation communication the nurses did only to a small extent evoke patients’ reasons for change, fostered collaboration and supported patients’ autonomy. The nurses provided a lot of information (42%), asked closed (21%) rather than open questions (3%), made simpler (14%) rather than complex (2%) reflections and used MI non-adherent (16%) rather than MI-adherent (5%) behavior. Most of the patients’ utterances in the communication were neutral either toward or away from smoking cessation (59%), utterances about reason (desire, ability and need) were 40%, taking steps 1% and commitment to stop smoking 0%. The number of patients who stopped smoking, and patients’ knowledge about the disease and their QoL, was increased by structured self-management education and smoking cessation in collaboration between the patient, nurse and physician and, when necessary, a physiotherapist, a dietician, an occupational therapist and/or a medical social worker.Conclusion The communication at nurse-led COPD clinics rarely involved the patients in shared understanding and responsibility and concerned patients’ fears, worries and problems only to a limited extent. The results also showed that nurses had difficulties in attaining proficiency in behavioral change communication. Structured self-management education showed positive effects on patients’ perceived QoL, on the number of patients who quit smoking and on patients’ knowledge about COPD.

Ramis, Mary-Anne. "The experience of being an advanced practice nurse within Australian acute care settings: a systematic review of qualitative evidence." Thesis, 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/2440/81484.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: Shortages of health care professionals and an ageing nursing workforce are some of the factors leading to the creation and evolution of many new nursing roles. Advanced practice nurses across the globe are working under many different titles and within various contexts, in order to address gaps within current health care systems. Comparison of roles between countries is difficult and possibly inappropriate due to Australia’s unique environmental and demographic characteristics. A context-specific systematic review on the qualitative evidence of the experience of being an advanced practice nurse in Australia has not been undertaken previously, however it is imperative for nursing managers and leaders to understand the complexities of advanced nursing roles in order to effectively utilise and retain these experienced and valuable nurses. Aim: This study aims to provide deeper understanding of the experience of being an advanced practice nurse working in Australian acute settings and identify personal, professional and organisational factors influencing experiences. Methods: A three-step search strategy, following the Joanna Briggs Institute method was used to identify published and unpublished interpretive studies meeting set inclusion criteria. Critical appraisal and data extraction were completed the Joanna Briggs Institute Qualitative Assessment and Review Instruments. Results: Following the search and appraisal process, four studies were assessed as meeting the inclusion criteria and from these, 216 findings were extracted. Six meta-syntheses under the headings of expert knowledge, confidence, education, relationships, negative experiences and patient centered experience were formed from the findings. Conclusion: This review has increased our understanding about the experience of being an advanced practice nurse in Australian acute care settings and provided evidence of the role being multifactorial and complex. The patient is central to the APN experience but organisational factors impact and influence their experience also. Health care organisations must be aware of the impact they have on the nurse’s experience if they are to commit to nurse retention and patient safety. Nurses must continue to improve articulating their experiences in order to quantify the more intangible aspects of their practice. Implications: There is a pragmatic aspect to this review as implications for practice are specific to the functioning of the advanced practice nurse in the Australian acute care environment. The complexity of the role has been highlighted which may assist to inform future research into other aspects of APN practice.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore and describe the perceptions of registered nurses with regard to facilitating the learning of student nurses during clinical placement. Focus group interviews with fifteen registered nurses were done, followed by participant observations in two clinical areas, to gain a clearer picture of obstacles, as well as the strategies employed during placement of student nurses in the clinical area. The :findings indicate that facilitation of the learning of student nurses during clinical placement is achieved by guidance, involvement, assisting and supervision of student nurses in the clinical area by nurses of all categories, and medical and paramedical personnel. Many obstacles were identified which obstruct the employment of strategies that are suitable for facilitation in the clinical area. Guidelines for the facilitation of learning of student nurses were recommended, to improve facilitation in the clinical area.

Abstract:
All members of the oral healthcare team have a part to play in patient management, and the team is comprised of the lead dentist (plus other colleagues in the dental practice), the dental nurse, hygienist, receptionist, laboratory technician, and possibly a dental therapist. In the UK, registered dental nurses can take further qualifications in teaching, oral health education, and radiography, and can specialize in other aspects of dentistry, including orthodontics, oral surgery, sedation, and special care. If the dentist wishes to have a second specialist opinion regarding a difficult diagnosis, formulating a care plan or even executing it, they may refer the patient to a specialist dentist working in another practice, or to a hospital-based consultant specialist in restorative dentistry. These specialists have undergone further postgraduate clinical and academic training and gained qualifications enabling them to be registered as specialists with the General Dental Council (GDC) in the UK in their specific trained fields (e.g. endodontics, periodontics, prosthodontics), or have further specialist training in restorative dentistry. The lead dentist will act as a central hub in the coordinating wheel of patient management, possibly outsourcing different aspects of work to relevant specialist colleagues, as spokes of that wheel. This is the clinical environment in which patients are diagnosed and treated. This room has traditionally been known as the ‘dental surgery’, but a more appropriate modern description might be the ‘dental clinic’, as much of the more holistic care offered to patients within its four walls will be non-surgical in the first instance. The operator and nurse must work closely together. To be successful, each must build up an understanding of how the other works. The clinic consists of a dental operating chair with an attached or mobile bracket table carrying the rotary instruments and 3-1 air/water syringe (and possibly the light-cure unit and ultrasonic scaler), work surfaces (which should be as clutter-free as possible for good-quality infection control; see later), cupboards for storage, and two sinks, one for normal hand washing and another for decontaminating soiled instruments prior to sterilization. Often the surgery will also house an X-ray unit for taking intra-oral radiographs. Most clinics are designed to accommodate right-handed practitioners, in terms of the location of many of the instruments and controls.

Abstract:
This task assesses the following clinical skills: … ● Patient safety ● Communication with colleagues ● Applied clinical knowledge … Mrs. Ahmed is a 48- year- old lady undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for heavy menstrual bleeding with a 20 week size fibroid. She is generally well and has undergone a left hip replacement five years ago. Your consultant has asked you to commence the surgery by opening the abdomen with a vertical subumbilical incision. She will shortly join you for the surgery. The Foundation Year 1 doctor will be assisting you in the interim. You will be presented with scenarios in the theatre. Your task is to problem solve and answer the queries of the F1 doctor. You have 10 minutes for this task (+ 2mins initial reading time). There is no role player for this scenario. This scenario checks the understanding of Monopolar diathermy and the ability to problem solve. It also assesses the understanding of safety issues surrounding electrocautery. First tell the candidate: The Theatre Assistant Practitioner (ODP) is newly qualified and normally works in the ENT theatres. You start the incision using a finger switch diathermy but it is not working What will you do? The candidate should first check if the machine is on Tell them that is was not on, but has now been switched on As soon as the machine is switched on, the machine starts beeping What should the ODP do next? If the candidate asks if there are any indications on the machine, say the sign of the returning electrodes is highlighted The candidate should check if the returning electrodes (pads) have been applied. They had not been. The ODP asks where he should apply the returning electrodes. The candidates should ask the electrode to be placed on the right buttock. The ODP asks if it is OK to put the returning electrode on the left buttock as the scrub nurse and trolley are on the right and it is convenient to apply on the left. The candidate should explain that as Mrs. Ahmed has had a hip replacement on the left, it is important to avoid applying the returning electrode near the metal implant and the scarring around it, for safety. The ODP asks that he has never seen a split returning electrode. Why is it split?

Abstract:
By the end of this chapter, you should understand… ● The range of possible sources of information about medicines ● Their positive and negative characteristics ● Some trustworthy sources of evidence ● The role of medicines information departments ● Some basic principles of critical analysis of evidence ● How the British National Formulary (BNF) is structured ● How to read a BNF monograph ● A selection of terms used in the literature about medicines…. While nurses will not usually be selecting medicines, they still need information to make the best use of the medicines prescribed for their patients. Information of all kinds is much more readily available today than it was a generation ago when the authors were students, but much of it is of low quality and today’s student must learn to test the quality of the evidence offered to see if it can be relied upon. In all fields of healthcare it has become usual to insist that practice must be evidence based. This is very desirable, but it begs the question—what is evidence? This chapter will examine some of the sources of evidence about medicines that are available and give some guidance on their reliability. Later, there will be an introduction to critical analysis of sources, and a description of some of the key terms used in evaluating clinical evidence about medicines. Sources of information may be conveniently divided into two main types—people and publications. It is natural that many healthcare professionals should rely upon their mentors and instructors to supplement the knowledge they gain in formal teaching. Indeed, for many years much of the practical information about medicines that junior doctors received came from participation in ward rounds under the tutelage of a consultant. In medical school they learned some general pharmacology, but the actions of many drugs were learned following graduation (Maxwell and Walley, 2009 ) The same will be true for nurses, and it will continue to be true throughout their careers. New medicines will come into use, and nurses will have to learn about them. It is therefore important to realize that pharmacology will be a lifelong study and does not end with registration as a nurse.

Abstract:
This chapter explains how and why healthcare might profit from a normative practice approach (NPA). This approach sketches a conceptual and normative framework that helps to locate and identify relevant points of view for clinical practice as well as for policy making in healthcare. The chapter starts in medias res: in the consulting room, in the encounter between clinician and patient. What kinds of relations are relevant for the understanding of what is going in the patient who feels ill and between the patient and the doctor (or nurse)? Are there normative principles and values which guide these relationships? The focus then broadens to the meso- and macro-contexts of current medicine and healthcare. The NPA will be re-introduced. Its relevance is shown for topics like the increase in the administrative burden in medicine, the role of expert knowledge, the hospital and its purposes, and the changing focus of medicine given the rapid changes in the macro-sphere. The chapter ends by saying that the NPA may help in different ways: by taking it as a point of reference; by relating the different normative dimensions to core responsibilities of doctors, other employees, and stakeholders beside medical professionals; and by relating these core responsibilities to the relevant contexts in which these doctors, other employees, and stakeholders are working.

Abstract:
To extend the life expectancy of all South Africans to at least 70 years by 2030, hypertension follow-up care needs to be strengthened so that patients do not develop complications while in care. The aim of this study was to evaluate the follow-up care received by patients with hypertension at primary health care (PHC) facilities in Tshwane district. The study setting was ten PHC facilities in the aforesaid district. Quantitative, descriptive and retrospective methods were adopted, and simple random sampling was used to select ten PHC facilities from which ten files were conveniently sampled. Data were captured in Microsoft Excel 2010 and exported to IBM Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 21 in which data coding, outlier detection, missing value analysis and statistical data analysis were performed. In line with the study aim, frequency tables in SPSS were used to produce frequency statistics, and the chi-square test was used to test for the presence of association between compliance by nurses to clinical guidelines and categories of attributes, and further determine if there was a significant difference between adherence and non-adherence. The study found a significant proportion (93.4%) of non-adherence to hypertension guidelines among consulting nurses at selected PHC facilities.

Abstract:
"The present study was conducted to explore the perception and views of primary care staff about Depression related Stigma and Discrimination. The Basic Qualitative Research Design was employed and an In-Depth Semi-Structured Discussion Guide consisted of 7 question was developed on the domains of Pryor and Reeder Model of Stigma and Discrimination such as Self-Stigma, Stigma by Association, Structural Stigma and Institutional Stigma, to investigate the phenomenon. Initially, Field Test and Pilot study were conducted to evaluate the relevance and effectiveness of Focus Group Discussion Guide in relation to phenomena under investigation. The suggestions were incorporated in the final Discussion Guide and Focus Group was employed as a data collection measure for the conduction of the main study. A purposive sampling was employed to selected a sample of Primary Care Staff (Psychiatrists, Medical Officers, Clinical Psychologists and Psychiatric Nurses) to elicit the meaningful information. The participants were recruited from the Department of Psychiatry of Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) recognized Private and Public Sector hospitals of Lahore, having experience of 3 years or more in dealing with patients diagnosed with Depression. However, for Medical Officers, the experience was restricted to less than one year based on their rotation. To maintain equal voices in the Focus Group, 12 participants were approached (3 Psychiatrist, 3 Clinical Psychologists, 3 Medical Officers and 3 Psychiatric Nurses) but total 8 participants (2 Psychiatrists, 2 Medical Officers, 3 Clinical Psychologists And 1 Psychiatric Nurse) participated in the Focus Group. The Focus Group was conducted with the help of Assistant Moderator, for an approximate duration of 90 minutes at the setting according to the ease of the participants. Further, it was audio recorded and transcribed for the analysis. The Braun and Clarke Reflexive Thematic Analysis was diligently followed through a series of six steps such as Familiarization with the Data, Coding, Generating Initial Themes, Reviewing Themes, Defining and Naming Themes. The findings highlighted two main themes i.e., Determining Factors of Mental Health Disparity and Improving Treatment Regimen: Making Consultancy Meaningful. The first theme was centered upon three subthemes such as Lack of Mental Health Literacy, Detached Attachment and Components of Stigma and Discrimination. The second theme included Establishing Contact and Providing Psychoeducation as a subtheme. The results manifested the need for awareness-based Stigma reduction intervention for Primary Care Staff aims to provide training in Psychoeducation and normalization to reduce Depression related Stigma and Discrimination among patients diagnosed with Depression."
