Measurable Achievements And Outcomes Of The Health Care Education

Teaching-learning session is almost the same to the nursing process that is used in clinical settings (Habel,2006). In the learning process, the initial step is assessment of the learners understanding towards their health condition, which is then followed by the questions what do they need to learn and what will be the appropriate approach to teach them (Habel, 2006).

In 2008 the Alliance for Advanced Practice Credentialing and the National Council of State Board of Nursing published specific masters educational, accreditation, licensure, credentialing, certification processes. The masters educational, accreditation, licensure, credentialing, certifications are based on a set of values steps to practice will ensure that NPs have the skills training to place themselves to serve an fundamental role in national health care reform (Graduate NursingEDU,

Before the Flexnor report there seem to be a big chunk of missing components when teaching in the medical field. It seemed that there was major emphasis on scientific knowledge and not enough on practical skills, clinical thinking and most of all bed side manners such as development of one’s character, compassion and integrity. When Mr. Flexnor

Dez' Janani Mangram is currently a freshman enrolled at Clayton State University working hard on her BA degree in Biology to become a surgeon. She has never been a huge fan of writing, but coming to college has helped her gain more knowledge on how essays should be organized and constructed. She has written many essays and reports since coming to Clayton State, she plans on writing many more reports as she further her medical career. In the future she plans on using writing as way to distribute out patients medicine, and write down signs and symptoms of a patient. She feels that writing is important in the medical field because just one little mistake you make writing down someone prescription can cause epic problems in their

This educational needs assessment will cover the hospital I serve in. It is a full service, 139 bed community hospital located on a scenic campus in. The hospital staff pride ourselves on providing the highest quality care in all service areas. Our intense focus on customer service and patient safety has created a unique healing environment. In addition to our personalized care, we offer state-of-the-art technology and a medical staff consisting of the finest physicians in the area. All of the patient rooms are private and we provide free, convenient parking in a safe neighborhood. We have also achieved top scores from the Joint Commission and the State Department of Health and are accredited Chest Pain Center. The hospital is partially owned by physicians. Needs Assessment The nursing services provided at my hospital include a number of clinical services in areas such as bariatric care, cardiology, robotic surgery, the day hospital, pediatrics and a number of other areas. As mentioned above, the hospital is a full service institution that is well awarded and provides a lot of services. However, even in great institutions, things can be improved for the approximately 200 nurses employed on staff. From the research that this author has doen, the geatest gap in our hospital's educational needs (and possibly the most expensive is the lack of knowledge of HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) amongst hospital staff nurses. To test fellow

Introduction: Development training and continuation of education are critical in the healthcare industry. This type of practice allows health care providers an opportunity to receive ongoing training, and that can opens up avenues of resources for professional development. In this paper, I will explain the reasons why training and education is necessary and relentless in healthcare. I also, will provide valuable insights regarding the importance of measuring and the accountability of competency levels in organizations. Finally, I will describe different processes organizations may use for tracking and

Writing is a practice that most of us were taught when we were young. We were taught the basics of grammar, how to form a sentence, conjunction words, how to write paragraphs and more. Although we have learned this skill while growing up and have used the skill every year after entering kindergarten, this does not mean our writing process will ensure the best work. The authors that I chose each encourage their audience to excel in the art of writing in their own way to help with the writing process.

Individuals who are given the opportunity to learn new skills, increase their abilities for specific accomplishments, and increase their overall knowledge in their field are more likely to remain with their employers. Therefore, many health care organizations realize that continuing education is not only a requirement for certification but also a method for attracting and retaining the best employees. Providing employees with a chance to polish their skills and learn new methods of providing the best care increases job satisfaction. It also makes employees more valuable as they are more able to provide the kind of care that patients expect and deserve. Employee competence is what makes health care what it is. Failing to provide adequate opportunities for continued education in the field will result in less overall care.

The role of an Advanced Practice Nurse (APN) is evolving as the shortage of primary care providers occurs as a result of an aging population and the implementation of Affordable Care Act (ACA) (Laurant, 2014). The advancement in medical technology, increasing aging population, and the prevalence of chronic diseases increase the expectation of public in healthcare system. In order to meet those needs various nursing roles evolved, and all those fall under the umbrella of APN (Ramis, Wu, & Pearson, 2012). Evidences support the role of APN in reducing patient length of stay, subsequent hospital costs, and functions as a recruitment strategy to encourage nurses to stay within the profession (Bauer, 2010). In order to be a successful APN, a nurse needs to have the advanced knowledge and expertise in the designated area. The APN is one who has advanced knowledge and skills in meeting the needs of a population with complex and unpredictable health needs. The skills needed to be successful as an APN is critical thinking, leadership skills, and clinical judgment in addition to the mastering of core competencies required by the National Organization of Nurse Practitioner Faculty (NONPF). For the purpose of this project I interviewed Mrs. A.C, who is an APRN for the Cardiovascular Surgeon. The main focus of the interview was to analyze the NONPF core competencies possessed by Mrs.A.C. The part of this paper includes the Description of the NONPF NP core competencies, Interview

There are studies based on evidence based practice that proved competencies have a positive impact on educating Frontline leaders. Connelly et al., (2003) claimed that competencies are needed for the charge nurse to be effective in portraying the role while Platt and Foster (2008) evaluated the effectiveness of educating nurses through the use of competencies. The goal of competency is to expand and update healthcare professionals in their knowledge and skills at their own pace.

The various kinds of health professionals are educated in separate schools but with considerable overlap in curricula and training requirements. They are, however, expected to integrate their training and work together after graduation. Identify the advantages and disadvantages of this approach to professional education in terms of costs, educational efficiency, and patient care quality. List one advantage and one disadvantage for each.

The objective of this study is to examine the conduction of a FLEXnet orientation classroom in which the student's participation the remainder of the time in an asynchronous environment. Program outcomes include identifying patient confidentiality issues including HIPAA. There are five students enrolled in the class including: (1) Maria Sanchez: Maria is fluent in both Spanish and English and has prior health care work experience; (2) Olga Bartold: Olga is 50 years old and new to the United States. Having come from Germany, she has limited English proficiency and is fluent in German. Olga does not have any experience working in a health care environment; (3) Dr. Ranzin: Dr. Ranzin is from India and speaks fluent English and has several years of experience working in a health care environment; (4) Joe Antone: Joe is a member of the Pima Indian Community. This is Joe's first experience working in a health care environment; and (5) Martha Scott: Martha is from the Midwest and has several years of experience working in a health care environment. This study will identify which model would be the most effective to respond to this situation based on the analysis and will answer as to what alternative assessment can be used to evaluate student learning.

The Towson University Health Care Management Program curriculum and internship program has provided us with the necessary tools and sources to achieve the Knowledge, Skills, and Attitudes (KSA’s) listed in the Core Competencies. Even though we have been guided in the right direction, I find that I am not fully aligned or parallel with all the given

You need not be a scientist or doctor to become a medical writer but you must possess the relevant skills to collect an collate scientific data and then present it to the medical fraternity in a proper and timely manner. Without presenting the data in an accurate and digestible manner the research work is of no use. As a medical

The nurse should act as a facilitator, creating an environment conducive to learning that motivates individuals to want to learn and makes it possible for them to learn (Musinski, 1999). The assessment of learning needs, the designing of a teaching plan, the implementation of instructional methods and materials, and the evaluation of teaching and learning should include participation by both the educator and the learner. Thus, the emphasis should be on the facilitation of learning from a nondirective rather than a didactic teaching approach (Knowles, Holton, & Swanson, 1998; Musinski, 1999; Mangena & Chabeli, 2005; Donner et al., 2005).
