Read Case 2.3 Educational Strategies

Improved Essays
For my educational strategies I have chosen case II. Based on the needs assessment, we know that conversations will be difficult therefore the learners will need practice in delivering hard news for the patients and/or loved ones. The three learning objectives I would have are:
1. View and understand the difference between good and bad ways to deliver difficult news. 2. Learn how to talk to a patient or loved one when delivering bad news. 3. The ability to handle the delivery of difficult news in a professional manner.
For the first objective, I would start with a cognitive objective and use audio visual, as well as discussion. Finding good and bad examples of how to give difficult new to someone in video format would be a great start. The

There is no doubt that there would be the use simulation, standardized patients and role-play. Simulation would be a good way to start because we can use manikins at first. Learners often seem to feel that manikins are easier to deal with and talk to because they are not real. I think learners would be able to talk to manikins and give difficult new during a simulation easier than giving it to a real person. Once the learner feels comfortable with the manikin, I would have the learner go through a simulation with a standardized patient. Real people in the room make it more realistic for the learner. The learner will have to give difficult news and they will see the emotions that the standardized patient will portray. This will make it hard for the learner, but as the learner continues to practice with the standardized patients, they will gain valuable feedback and be able to feel more comfortable in delivering bad news. I would also encourage the learners to interact with one another in role play, allowing one to be the patient and the other to deliver the difficult news. The learners can use role play before either being involved in the simulation or the standardized patient scenarios. Again, this will help the learner start to gain confidence as they will be involved with their peers and they can stop and go as they go through the

    While reading My Stroke of Insight, I was astonished by Jill Bolte Taylor’s positive outlook with her CVA and how well she recovered. Thoughts raced continuously throughout my mind with each page that I read in her book. Each chapter amazed me more. As an instructor, I would have my students to ask themselves whether they felt that Jill’s positive standpoint with her condition affected her overall recovery along with the time duration, if they think that the people surrounding Jill affected her recovery with how they treated her, and why do they think Jill waited so long to seek help while she was experiencing signs of a CVA? People have said that the outlook one has on life can affect life itself.…

    There are various ways to deliver psychoeducation to the people involved. It can be delivered through single psychoeducation (the discussion is done one-to-one with the person affected), family-focused psychoeducation (all the family members of the patient are included) or group psychoeducation (consists of several participants suffering from the same condition). The main purpose of psychoeducation is to educate the individuals about their condition to increase their understanding. They can be more accepting of their condition and display significant positive changes in their everyday…

    The Health Care Professional’s Effect on the Psychological Health of a Trauma Patient “It is much more important to know what sort of a patient has a disease than what sort of a disease a patient has.” – Sir William Osler. This quote alludes to the idea the knowing your patient is as important that treating the disease alone. Is it possible that the positive or negative communication and attitudes of nurses, doctors, and surgeons given charge over a patient, alter the prognosis of that patient’s health? And if so, is the difference in patient outcome large enough to make the medical community change the amount of education in psychology that medical students receive.…

    I can also agree with your opinion on soft skills being far more of importance that the hard skills. Without the true relationship of getting to know your patients and showing dignity and respect amongst them, it could cause an incredible set back on problem-solving, especially during ethical dilemmas. This could also mean that the status of the patient’s health could decline and cause a longer hospital stay. At that point, the hard skills would not have as much of an effect because of the social skills not being used in the manner as they…

    In order to teach what the learner needs and focus on patient/family-centered teacher would need to assess what was important to the learner. According to Bastable (2014), identifying and prioritizing the learner’s needs are based on what the learner view as important (P.157). The two patients were very direct as what information they needed to know and what was important to each one. The older learner was more interest in making sure he was better so that he did not miss any work days. The younger patient felt more inconvenienced at being sick irritated that he did not feel like being very…

Considerations like how to finance said education, what the starting salary is, and even compliance issues must all be addressed and analyzed before making such an important decision. I.

    I am coming to understand more and more the difference in care that is required for a client who focus of care is palliative compared to someone who health focus is maintenance of illness or cure of illness or injury. In my practice experience at KBRH I have had the opportunity to care for both palliative and non-palliative clients and not only recognize the shift in care, but the understanding around the different types of care. Particularly in the shift to palliative. For example where pain medications are given in greater dose and longer term without concern for addiction or tolerance, or where family may need more care and teaching than the clients, particularly at the end.…
