Hi Oghene, In this case, clinical prefers that we only issue one query to get our point across because we are just verifying if the data is correct. Query Suggestions: • Nasal swab collection time is 11:20 and the vital Signs collection time is 11:20. Usually the assessments are performed during separate times. Was both assessments done at the same time? If not, please verify the assessment times and reconcile your entries on the appropriate form or clarify. • Nasal swab and Flu-Pro questionnaire was completed at 11:20; however, Flu-Pro questionnaire should be collected prior to all study assessments. Was Flu-Pro and Nasal Swab collected at the same time? If not, please verify the times and reconcile your entries on the appropriate

My colleague and I received an emergency call to reports of a female on the ground. Once on scene an intoxicated male stated that his wife is under investigation for “passing out episodes”. She was lying supine on the kitchen floor and did not respond to A.V.P.U. I measured and inserted a nasopharyngeal airway which was initially accepted by my patient. She then regained consciousness and stated, “Oh it’s happened again has it?” I removed the airway and asked my colleague to complete base line observations and ECG which were all within the normal range. During history taking my patient stated that she did not wish to travel to hospital. However each time my patient stood up she collapsed and we would have to intervene to protect her safety and dignity, whilst also trying to ascertain what was going on. During the unresponsive episodes we returned the patient to the stretcher where she spontaneously recovered and refused hospital treatment. I completed my patient report form to reflect the patient's decision and highlighted my concerns. The patient’s intoxicated husband then carried his wife back into the house.
The nurse must take five minutes at most to complete the MSAAT and has to make sure everything is complete for accurate
15) Yes it was used correctly. They gathered their information from the patients by directly asking them. Although some of the patients responses were incorrect, they method used to obtain the information was still correct.
Throughout 1918 and 1919, influenza spread quickly in three waves killing an estimated 50 million to 100 million people worldwide. With the best-recorded first case having occurred in Fort Riley, the contagious flu spread across military camps around the United States. Due to the world war, the influenza virus was brought over to Europe where it infected people in nearly every country. This disease would end up causing one of the greatest pandemics in human history, but would also catalyze great advancements in science and medicine.
middle of paper ... ... The priority for this patient was to establish that she was fully aware of what the procedure involved and the possible risks and complications. I feel that the pre-assessment form used within the unit is far too fundamental, if elements of the roper et al activities of daily living were to be incorporated this would help in achieving a much more in-depth holistic nursing assessment enabling for the best quality and level of care to be given to all patients arriving in the unit. Whilst I feel a full nursing assessment is not fully necessary for a day case unit, as previously stated I feel that the communication element is an excellent way of ensuring a better holistic approach is achieved, it will also help to achieve better documentation and communication between all staff members.
P-The patient will continue to adhere to the program policy. The next appointment is scheduled 04/13/2016 at 8am.
Additionally, the clinical staff has shown very low level of confidence in the RR documentation on observation chart. Lack of time, laziness, lack of training and knowledge and unawareness of the importance of the respiratory assessment are main reasons to neglect this important aspect of nursing as stated in this study (Philip, Richardson, & Cohen,
In Bartholomew’s Song, we are introduced to the character Barth 467 and his development into a free-thinking man with decides to break away from his oppression. The atmosphere of the short film is like that of a prison, with bare walls, little to no self-expression for the “Barths”, and a uniform schedule for the characters to follow. Barth 467 finds a box left out on the floor and proceeds to take it back to his room; from this action, he takes his first step to self-expression through owning an object other than his bed. The music that comes from the box is a vast change to the woman’s voice that he is accustomed to coming from speakers. Instead of telling him orders, the music encourages him to think for himself. Near the end of the film,
Mrs. Smith completed each assessment without a break, but took a 15-minutes in between each assessment. The measures were completed in a room
This reflection of vital signs will go into discussion about the strengths and weaknesses of each vital sign and the importance of each of them. Vital signs should be assessed many different times such as on admission to a health care facility, before and after something substantial has happened to the patient such as surgery and so forth (ref inter). I learned to assess blood pressure (BP), pulse (P), temperature (T) and respiration (R) and I will reflect and discuss which aspects were more difficult and ways to improve on them. While pulse, respiration and temperature were fairly easy to become skilled at, it was blood pressure which was a bit more difficult to understand.
Good Morning Dr. Holzner, just a heads up I was working on request for patient Lieb, Jeffrey whom you have seen on 12/28 as new process, but it looks like he started evaluation already with UCLA and had a visit on 1/4/15 with them. They already started evaluation process. So I will have to just keep him in evaluation phase with UCLA is that ok?
Templates have pre-determined options to choose from relating to examination findings. Some patients may not fit any of the pre-determined options, therefore causing inaccuracy of documentation or the chance that the examination was never performed (Weis & Levy, 2014). Weis and Levy explained that using CIT resulted in documentation errors that threatened patient safety.
