PHAMS TEAM CONSULTATION SURVEY Do you have any suggestions for improving the current PHaMs processes / procedures / documents? To open a client’s folder in our CI Drive (I), instead of having client’s information in individual staff’s folder. Which process in your job are you currently having the most trouble with? Not been able to have our recourses books available for consultation and print outs. Not been able to find a desk set up with IT equipments, such as keyboard, mouse, pad mouse, feed rest. Not been able to have a space where we can be focus without being interacted by external voices. I would like to attend more professional developments training, as I believe it is the most important factor contributing to clients’ recovery,
Interprofessional teams in health care are considered to be one of the best approaches to improve patient outcomes. Interprofessional teams provide the means to integrate patient care with input from many different professional disciplines (Rose, 2011). Nurses are an important part of the interprofessional team, since they are often the team member that is closest to the patient (Miers & Pollard, 2009). I recently participated in a team that developed a work flow for daily readmission rounds. The team was interprofessional, the hospitalist, who was an APRN led the team. There was the case manager and the primary nurse who were both RN’s. The team also consisted of a resident, pharmacist, nutritionist, physical therapist, and social worker.
This method is grounded in the strengths perspective, a perspective in which the worker center’s their sessions around the clients’ abilities, gifts, and strengths (Shulman, 2016). Instead of focusing on what is wrong with the client, the worker highlights what is right with the client building on their strengths instead of emphasizing their deficits: the client already has what they need to get better or solve their problem (Corcoran, 2008). The role of the worker in this model is to help the client recognize their potential, recognize what resources they already have, and discuss what is going well for the client and what they have been able to accomplish already (Shulman, 2016). Techniques commonly used in this model, although they are not exclusive to this model, include an emphasis on pre- and between-session change, exception questions, the miracle question, scaling questions, and coping questions (Shulman, 2016). These questions are used for many reasons: for example, the miracle question is used because “sometimes asking clients to envision a brighter future may help them be clearer on what they want or to see a path to problem-solving.” (Corcoran, 2008, p. 434) while coping questions are used to allow the client to see what they are already accomplishing, rather than what they are transgressing (Corcoran, 2008).

Across the nation many nursing programs are facing clinical site shortages for their students. The hardest hit population is the license vocational nursing (LVN) students. Many hospitals are trending toward achieving “Magnet Status” for their institutions. Therefore, LVN students are no longer allowed to complete their clinical training in several hospitals. This action forces many nursing programs to seek alternative methods of clinical instruction. In years past simulation training was used as an aid to facilitate learning. Today, for many nursing programs scenario based simulation is the only option for learning patient care.
The interprofessional team model is a group comprised of various healthcare disciplines working together towards common goals to meet the needs of the patient population. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines interprofessional collaboration in healthcare as occurring “when multiple health workers from different professional backgrounds provide comprehensive services by working with patients, their families, and communities to deliver the highest quality of care across settings” (WHO, 2010, p.13). In my final practicum at I have experienced interprofessional collaboration, while involved with the methadone program at Rosthern Hospital. Nurses have an important role in the methadone program, and the involvement of nurses in the program
...distractions. Taking time to observe and analyze the silence can bring something to the surface that could never be confronted in any other way. We need to embrace silence presented throughout life, for we will come out with more definitive, powerful voices.
Are you certified in a counseling approach or have you gone to trainings for a counseling approach?
We started with Phase I. I Contact client and met to discuss what to expect with our sessions. We then went to phase II, the therapist was able to sit down and understand the clients world view and the things she was going through. Phase III is Education and Integration, the therapist educated the client about existential world view. Phase IV is awareness, client was understood existential philosophy. Phase V is self-acceptance, the client understands that from now on they can choose differently. Phase VI is responsibility, the client has taken responsibility to make different choices, accepts that one can be purposeful and bring own meaning. Phase VII is choice and freedom, the client made conscious choices that are freeing from their self-imposed neurotic constraints. Phase VIII is separation, the client realizes that she no longer needs
The therapeutic aspect is focussed on the care received, and how it creates a positive outcome for the service user, this includes good communication, building strong relationships, person centred planning and the choices available to the person in receipt of care. (Miller, J, 2015) (Gibb and Miller, 2007)
...p their own solutions to problems. Clients may need some guidance, education, or direction depending on their abilities and how the therapy is going. It is then that I want to be able to help them feel more empowered and recognize that they can make changes with effort on their part.
This course influenced how I’m probably going to interact with my patients when I’m a recreational therapist. This course honestly helps you think about the reasoning people think and do things in different situations. While I will not be trained per say to help an individual overcome these symptoms, if I can better understand the reasoning behind them I can provide a better service to the individual. After all, the client is the most important thing in treatment. Without the client we have nothing.
Space should welcome both silence and speech: Most people believe that words are the only way of exchange in teaching and learning. But silence gives us the opportunity to reflect upon what we and others have said and heard. In a sense silence is a sort of speech that we have with ourselves, a sort of monologue we have with ourselves. A conversation that allows you to reflect, think or talk to yourself.
I attended the in service training and actively participated in the continuous professional development (CPD). I also supervised less experienced physiotherapists and physiotherapy assistances. I experienced working in a very busy schedule which acquired me the necessary skills of time management, working under pressure, prioritization and changing plans as required. I maintained accurate, computerized and professional documentation that respected patient's/client's dignity and
Professional development is a lifelong journey. In order for one to examine his/her individual skills, qualities, needs, and opportunities, one must be able to identify future goals. Part of identifying future goals is being able to recognize weaknesses, use of time management, and different ways to invest in oneself to make the most of his/her future. Creating a professional development allows an individual to create an action plan based on his/her values, beliefs, and experiences to advance oneself in a career situation.
Offices require lots of different equipment, like computers, printers, routers, switches, and cables. You also need software to get your tasks done everyday, like productivity, communication, time management, and the specific type of software for the type of office. You need all these things to make your office run more smoothly and get your work done.
Knowing what you need from a desk will also help narrow down your options. Desks come in many shapes and sizes.
