Anna Liza D. Fernandez Case Summary

With the support and backing of such tools that the hospital employs, I’m not as nervous about making mistakes and costing the company money or losing my job. Billing and Coding is a very important job for the health care organization and they go the extra lengths to help the coders achieve accuracy and compliance at the time of coding. Not only does it help the health care organization but it helps the patients get their correct benefits from their insurance company. It was a great experience and I can’t wait until I can get out there and apply what I have

The perioperative experience involves the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phase. I had the opportunity to closely observe the health care staff during the last two phases of the perioperative process. This experience allowed be to gain a better understanding of the role of nurses throughout these different phases. It was apparent that their day to day duties are different than registered nurses in other areas of the hospital. During the perioperative experience, I was able to observe the role of the registered nurses, the role of other staff members, the progression of the nursing diagnosis, and patient teaching.

In our facility administration provide continuous training to leadership and staff in order to increase patient satisfaction, our motto is ”Communicate clearly and often", every interaction with patients is an opportunity to educate them. We start teaching and educating people from the day they come in, making sure they are prepared to take care of themselves at home. Another tool that we use to ensure effective communication is providing interpreters for patients who do not speak or understand English, this is crucial for information about medication and discharge instructions. Patient whiteboards were upgraded and are use to the fullest, they serve as a communication tool between hospital providers and as a mechanism to engage patients in their care, whiteboard use could improve teamwork communication as well as patient care and awareness of their care team, admission plans and duration of admission, and significantly improve patient overall satisfaction.

Together, the two systems were devised to establish a means to extend intensivist expertise to a greater number of ICU patients and potentially maximize both effectiveness and efficiency of critical care treatment. The eICU program comprises of a suite of information technology tools that monitor and support the remote team and the on-site team. The core information system collects data from various sources and reorganizes it to optimize data presentation and facilitate physician work flow.

(2008). I would like to challenges Chief Nurse Executives (CNEs) to lead the journey and highlights how patients, their families, and health care organizations would benefit immeasurably if CNEs stepped forward and accepted this leadership role, then and only then can the best practice changes begin to improve what we as nurses already know. The processes of leading are intended to enable more people to develop into leaders and more people to share the roles of leading, to enhance the quality and safety of patient care (Stone P.

Additionally the hospital needs to take appropriate disciplinary action against all employees involved that were not performing their job’s properly, this includes not only the technicians but the head of sterile processing. Furthermore the staff must improve the training on sterilization methods, this includes the consequences of not following proper

It It f It frustrates me what Dr. Anna Pou had to go through with the lawsuits of the Memorial Medical Center incident. As Healthcare professionals, being sued for making the rightful decision for the patient and the hospital is unjust. Healthcare professionals like Dr. Pou, have taken the Hippocratic oath, and one of the promises made within that oath is “first, do no harm”. Hospital’s should not be so quick to make such an important decision of pressing charges to their faculty; more trust should be placed in them. In addition, she made it clear her intentions were just to ‘‘help’’ patients ‘‘through their pain,’’ on national television.

Vicente Flores is a twelve-year-old, Hispanic, male. In class, he is one grade level below grade level and is an English Language Learner. Vicente understands and speaks conversational English with hesitancy and difficulty. He understands parts of lessons and simple directions. He is also a pre-emergent or emergent level of reading and writing in English. Vicente needs graphic organizers and pictures or artifacts to help him build vocabulary. He needs flashcards. Shortened assessments need to be done orally, or in multiple choice format. Assignments need to be at a lower reading level, adapted, and directions need to be given in small, distinct steps. He needs access to a translator or bilingual dictionaries that allows for a deeper understanding of content. His plan also states that he would benefit from peer assistance, and being in the classroom 100% of the time improves his progress.
