Interpretation In Patient Care Analysis

It is widely known that early recognition of a deteriorating patient can contribute largely to a successful outcome, through recognising and taking action on the deteriorating health status of the patient (National Consensus Statement, 2010). This report will explore the ways in which deteriorating patients and clinical reasoning are used in the public health care system in New South Wales (NSW).

A clinical assessment is the process in which information is gathered about a certain person and his/her environment to make decision regarding his/hers nature, as well as their nature and if needed to asses any treatment needed of any psychological problems, if necessary. A diagnosis is the identification of any illness that a human being may have, if any. The goals of a clinical assessment and diagnosis, is to be able to identify a certain abnormality or problem in a human. The assessment or tests that they are put through evaluates any symptoms (if any), the pattern of their symptoms and are watched to observe the frequency and duration of these symptoms. Their strengths and weaknesses are also

1.1 Assessment is about judging if, how and what level of learning has taken place. An assessor's function is to decide if a learner has developed skills, knowledge, understanding and competence in a particular field as well as if the learner is showing the attitude required for the application of the learning within that field. Assessing is not the same as evaluating. Rather than the focus being on the programme or course the learner is on (evaluation), the focus is instead on the learner and their development.

Hospitals regularly measure patient care, which is defined as any health care service provided to an individual. It is measured in different ways according to the type of health care service provided. However, there are basic principles that guide how all patient hospital care is measured.

Evaluation is an assessment of something or making an observation of the outcome whether good or bad. An example of evaluating is after the Year 8 disco, was the year 8 pupil’s filing out an evaluation form on how they thought the event went.

This report aims to discuss the communication observed between the Nurse and Patient portrayed in the video. There are two scenarios in which the Nurse addresses the patient’s concerns. The patient’s response is influenced by the Nurse’s approach. In a health care setting, a personal, empathic yet professional approach is most effective in communication from Nurse to Patient. Furthermore this report assesses the therapeutic techniques used by the Nurse to effectively interact with the patient.

Strengths of the evaluation tool is strong because it is given to all new hires, it has many subdivisions, includes other health care providers interactions, along with critical care thinking in reference to knowing limits and how they evaluate situations. Before a preceptor is given a new nurse to precept, they must attend a series of classes. These classes elaborate the teaching and evaluation concepts of checklist for evaluation. This brings consistency, that everyone is educated in the same manner as how to approach and evaluate a new RN. The focus is on approachable nurses and also on those individuals that are strong and difficult to teach. A weakness that is obvious, is that the evaluation is subjective in nature. After all, we

Patient health behaviors manifest in physical and emotional ways. The tools discussed in these class provides me with the understanding of tools to utilize in a primary care setting and traditional therapy settings.

Upon evaluating the effect of past five week’s classes and course material encounters each week was enchanting for me. I have had great impact on my practice with those new gained and reinforced knowledge .While reading some of the materials I realized how important the legal value of our documentation .As nurses often we do give priority to our patients care and charting as our last priority .Whatever care we give if we are not documenting its considered as not done .when it reaches court of judgement our documentation is our proof .Other impact was on the focused assessment .As our patient population mostly belong to the repeated visit for chemo therapy ,focus is mainly on the focused assessment ,my new knowledge assisting me to do focused assessment in a more systematic way. Acronyms like VINDICATE was new to me even though familiar with SOAP I never used SOAPIE before.

Laverne and Leslie, very interesting post and I enjoyed reading them both. I too was not familiar with this type of evaluation. Objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) when pioneered consisted of patients following a dialect in pre-set stories, students then rotated through the different scenarios. (Ho, Lin, & Chung, 2016, p. 1). Patient safety was not compromised with OSCE.

According to Stufflebeam, evaluation is the process of delineating, obtaining and providing useful information for judging decision alternatives. ‘Delineating’ refers to focusing of informative requirements needed by decision-maker through such operations as specifying, defining and explicating. ‘Obtaining’ implies collection, organization and analysis of information using such technical procedures as measurement and statistics. ‘Providing’ refers to synthesizing of information so that it will be optimally useful for the purpose of evaluation. ‘Delineating’ and ‘providing’ operations are carried out collaboratively between evaluator and decision-maker, whereas the obtaining of information is carried out primarily by the evaluator.
