The Application Value Of All Round Nursing Care

The profession of nursing requires a capacity and joy for caring and healing others both mentally and physically. Nurses spend their careers caring for patients and their families often in the worst and most frightening periods of their lives. Nursing responsibilities can be lengthy, stressful and physically and emotionally demanding. The demands of the nursing profession coupled with the nursing shortage and longer work hours put even more stress on nurses. Despite these extreme demands, many nurses do not fully appreciate the importance self-care. Yet without proper care for themselves, nurses are not able to provide the best care for their patients.

This study design was an open-label randomized controlled trial. A total of 66 patients enrolled in this study with a mean age of 41 years old that were admitted in the intensive care unit from 2007 to 2010. The mean age was between 40.8 to 41.4 between both groups. Of the 66 participants there were 36 men and 30 women that participated in this study. The seizure etiology included epilepsy related, virus encephalitis, cerebrovascular disease, and other. The duration of seizures varied from under four hours to over 24 hours.

Healthcare has been evolving over the last 30 years from focusing on treatment of injury and illness to prevention of injury/illness. A greater emphasis has been placed on health promotion and wellness programs over the last 20 years. Over the last 10 years, due to the economic state of the country, families may find difficulty in obtaining these resources due to a high unemployment rate, increase in single-parent families, increasing cost of insurance, and shorter stays in the hospital requiring families and patients to manage their care at home. This paper is going to discuss nurse home visitation programs, community nursing centers, public health departments, home and community education, and access to resources.

What I did learn was seizure precautions need to be in place as soon as possible. Padding should be placed on the bed rails, bed in the lowest position and have suction in place in case of vomiting. I can see where it is important to master therapeutic communication so that you are not adding to the problem by causing the patient to become irritated. In Mary Townsend’s book, Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing, it says to not promote the patient’s hallucinations but to politely state the reality and change their focus to something else. (Townsend, p 349-351)

For all new admissions each shift is responsible to accurately complete at least two care plans in order to be incompliance with federal guidelines of having a care plan in place within twenty-four hours of admission. The following are the six categories to choose from:

The ongoing tests positive patient and thereby improve the quality of patient outcomes and enhance nursing knowledge is the goal (Bender, Williams, Su & Hites, 2016). Clinical characteristics and confidence that enables them to take decisions, gentle, clinical leaders, such as the qualitative study conducted by a mental health setting or in an emergency situation has been found to control the unpredictable (Ennis, Happell & Reid-Searl, 2014).

This essay will discuss the Principles of Nursing Practice with particular reference to Principle D. The professional, legal and ethical frameworks that guide Principle D will also be considered. The essay will relate this content to what I have read and experienced in practice. Firstly, it will give an overview of the Principles of Nursing Practice with a definition of Principle D. The essay will then explain how I witnessed Principle D being achieved in my nursing practice focussing on two patients, Mrs Kay and Patrick. To make sure I did not breach the NMC’s Code of Conduct (2015), I have used pseudonyms instead of using patients’ real names. I also informed Mrs Kay of this assignment and obtained consent to use her example in my essay.

"Hey you LPN, Can you get the nurse I have a question to ask them?" A common phrase heard in the nursing world and often makes the LPN feel inadequate and frustrated. The nursing field is one that is rich in history and diversity. The registered nurse has been the backbone of the nursing world for many years; however, many people recognize the license practical nurse or license vocational nurse particularly in the geriatric community. LPN/LVN in this setting perform many of the same tasks as the RN, yet is paid less and given much less respect. The LPN makes up the majority of the workforce when working in the geriatric rehabilitation setting and deserves to be treated as equals with the RN. The Scope of Practice, education given to both

This writer is also aware of the nursing theories that need to be implemented in the emergency room so that the patient are receiving the finest quality care that he or she deserves. This writer intends to increase her nursing knowledge through the other courses in her master’s degree program and every day that she is working.

D.B informed me that the driving force in the delivery of nursing care at her facility is best evidence which is a persuasive tool that is utilized in direct care; a powerful bargaining tool for changing nursing care. She was asked to give me an example of one of the best practices and she stated that “nurses can make the decision to remove Foley catheters.” Clearly, they do not need a Physician’s order and secondly, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid will not reimburse hospitals for preventable

In the broad scope of nursing care, challenges to increase healthy patient outcomes are prevalent. These challenges are present in many different forms, but are similar in how they can be improved. With enhanced education, awareness, and evidenced-based practice, the patient as well as the nurse can benefit. Current nursing practices that may improve through increased awareness, education, and evidence-based practice include hypoglycemia in the older adult with diabetes, the complex disease of epilepsy, and catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI’s).

The main idea of this paper is to demonstrate the excellent nursing knowledge to critical analysed the client’s condition relates by theoretical concepts to clinical practice for gaining the client centred care (School of Nursing & Midwifery 2014).

Therefore, what the main goal for nurse’s is to create an environment in the emergency department which would maintain to preserve the patient’s stillness even while medical procedures are being done so that distress will not rise and prevent the effect on the client’s health from getting

Gulf-Side Hospice has provided excellence of care and services to the people of the west coast communities of Florida since 1976. Due to recent, unfortunate changes in insurance coverage, eligibility for patients to receive 24 hour continuous skilled nursing home care has been limited. The new limitations will cause the responsibility of care to fall back upon the patient’s families, with only provisions allowed for on-call nursing services for emergencies only, and supportive nursing services via telephone communication. Therefore, we are forced to make the difficult decision of eliminating the full-time positions of the 24-hour continuous care nurses. Ten new full-time positions will be created for nurses to cover supportive and on-call services. While 24-hour continuous care nurses are eligible for the new positions, there will not be enough available to
