Language Barriers In Implementing Transitions Of Care

We must not make any assumptions about the patients, we overestimate people’s reading levels because we are not in their position and we do not think about how something so “easy” to us can be such a challenge for others. Nurses should expertise in communication to understand their patients better and help them avoid humiliation and anxiousness. We believe in holistic care, which means caring for the whole body. Therefore, their feelings and emotions matter just as much as their health, rather they can read or

Patients should not have to deal with that kind of pressure, it is already enough having to go through treatment every day. With hemodialysis patients are able to become more independent in treating their disease. Patients shouldn 't have to feel to put a burden on their family to be taken care of. Having the home hemodialysis doesn 't only help patients, but the family as well. Moreover, Davis (2013) noted that despite home hemodialysis benefiting patients, "With quality teaching principles and good training resources, patients can even make Nephrology nurses’ lives easier because of their increased independence" ( p291-292.

Giving freedom for patients to choose where they want to be treated can impact the progression of patients’ conditions, since patients will be less stressed in their home than hospitals. I am glad that I am doing my Ambulatory Care IPPE at Jefferson Home Infusion because I learned whole new field in pharmacy and how infusion pharmacists can impact patients’ lives in patient-centered

Placebo effect coming from patient 's expectations and more physician attention can not be justified in patient population with life threatening diseases. It is difficult to find more benefits for patients that could prevail over risks of being left untreated with metastatic breast cancer if in placebo arm. Even the option of not being treated at all, being left at home, and not being given any medical care, is more acceptable, because at least patients will not be exposed to sometimes difficult transportation to hospital for study visits and various diagnostic tests. It is expected that they are very weak, easily fatigued and that they will not be able to perform even the simple activities of daily living. It is really difficult to justify all this nuisance of study visits without any benefit for an individual patient that is in such a difficult health condition.

In order to give quality care for patients, physicians need to have the necessary skills to understand the capabilities of the new technology. In this case, residents would rather have interactions between patient and physician than getting treatment toward EHRs because patients believe that EHRs could be leading to errors and patient safety could be at risk. In this case, the study shows that residents prefer more patient-physician communications after EHRs were implemented inpatient settings. On the other hand, Physicians spend more time on the computer rather than looking at patients in an outpatient environment after adapting to EHRs than a paper-based system. The goal of these studies to understand patient satisfaction between inpatient and outpatient settings while using the EHR system.

Moving forward, from this knowledge, humanity should learn to appreciate the bravery mental illness patients face from coping with their illness and reject the instinctive craving for superiority. We must provide victims with the proper care, treatment and attention for the human race will not progress if we ignore a large portion of population. We are all in this society together, it is not in our nature to abandon, but in our nature to love and care for others. This in turn benefits society to be more progressive as a healthy species. The more we are educated on mental health, the easier it becomes to heal those.

These quality measures mainly focus on medication errors, quality of medication use, and performance measures to align with physicians and health plan measures. This is a really exciting regulation because it would really help reduce the amount of medication errors and reduce health costs by eliminating unnecessary, duplicate, and harmful therapy. With this rule in place, hopefully corporates would shift their focus from quantity provided (number of scripts) per day to quality

This also means that it improved data for epidemiological research. (Ahima, 2015) Not only did ICD-10 do all of that but it did so much more, like measuring outcomes and care provided to patients. Making new clinical decisions along with identifying fraud and abuse to save patients information. No one understood the value of ICD-10 until it came out. With ICD-10 having greater accuracy, higher quality, improved efficiencies and lower costs and, reduced errors it made the medical community look easier and safer for

This has been as a result of ineffective patient-provider communication and also provider prejudice. Therefore, by implementing diversity of the team and inclusion of cultural competency in the daily running of the organization, patients will be able to receive care from providers that they are most comfortable with and that in return will improve the overall quality and outcome of care. Diversity of gender, race, socioeconomic status and thought are necessary to bring about innovation.

It allowed me to have a better understanding of the pre and post-surgical procedures, including the admission questionnaire and the monitoring needed after the patient returns to the unit. One key question to ask was which medications did the patient take and at what time. This information is necessary to determine if there are any interactions or adverse effects that can compromise the procedure. Some medications may be held due to its side effects. For example, if a diabetic patient take his medication and doesn 't eat for many hours, the risk of hypoglycemia increases.
