Culture of Patient Safety Case Studies

The purpose of this assignment is to create a culture of patient safety using information and communication technologies and informatic processes to deliver safe nursing care while promoting health.

Part 1: Creating a Culture of Patient Safety

Instructions: Please review the following scenario and answer each of the following questions in 150-200 words using one to two sources to support your ideas.

Michael is a nurse working on a busy medical-surgical unit. He is responsible for the care of five patients with complex medical needs. Michael checks on his first patient, Mrs. Wallace. She is lying in bed with the call light button within her reach. The identification armband is in place. Michael verifies that the IV is working and the correct IV fluid is infusing. The monitor is on, and the limits/volumes are set appropriately.

Michael proceeds to check on his second patient, Mr. Baker. As he walks in the room, he finds Mr. Baker on the floor and alert. Mr. Baker tells Michael that he fell trying to get into the bed because the bed rolled away. Michael notes that the locks for the bed were not engaged. There is no call light in the room. The monitor is turned off. Mr. Baker does not have an identification armband on. There is an identification band on the bedside table, but it does not belong to Mr. Baker. Michael checks the IV fluid infusing and discovers that the name on the IV bag is the same as the identification armband on the bedside table.

Basic safety design principles help to reduce risk of harm. Examples of these include error-proofing, safeguards, and training.

· Select one of the safety design principles and explain how it applies to Mrs. Wallace and Mr. Baker.

· Discuss the benefits of using reporting system processes to understand causes of error and improve patient outcomes.

· Support your ideas using one to two sources.

Part 2: Delivering Safe Nursing Care Using Information and Communication Technologies

Instructions: Please review the following scenario and answer each of the following questions in 150-200 words using one to two sources to support your ideas.

Stephanie, a home health nurse, is visiting an elderly man, Mr. Turner, who lives with his daughter. Prior to the visit, Stephanie reviews the electronic health record (EHR) and the clinical decision support tools for Mr. Turner. He has a pacemaker to help with his congestive heart failure. There is a module in his home that sends information from his device to the cardiologist to monitor. During this visit, Stephanie will be assisting Mr. Turner and his daughter to send a report to the cardiologist via the module connected to the internet. Mr. Turner is also a type II diabetic using an insulin pump that is connected to an app on his phone. Due to the neuropathy of his feet, Mr. Turner is unstable with his gait and uses a walker to ambulate. He wears a senior medical alert button in case he should fall. Mr. Turner is also scheduled for a telehealth visit with his doctor during Stephanie’s visit.

Stephanie arrives at the home for the visit. As she is starting her assessment of Mr. Turner, the insulin pump is beeping and there is an error message. Mr. Turner states that it has not been working right the last couple of days and his daughter was going to try to fix it. He also tells Stephanie that he has stopped wearing the medical alert button because it kept beeping and he was unable to get it to stop beeping.

Clinical Decision Support Tools

· Describe two examples of clinical decision support tools (CDST) for Mr. Turner.

· Evaluate how decision support tools impact clinical judgment and help provide safe patient care.

Performance Metrics

· Explain how CDST are used to report and monitor performance metrics on patient outcomes.

· Discuss two to three examples of healthcare performance metrics.

Technology Use for Care

· Describe how the technology used to care for Mr. Turner enhances the quality and safety of care.

· Identify two modalities that could be used to communicate care delivery for Mr. Turner.

Benefit of Emerging Technologies

· Select two emerging technologies that are used to improve healthcare delivery and clinical decision making.

· Describe the benefit of these emerging technologies to improve the health promotion for this patient.

Reporting System Processes and Functional Issues

· Identify the importance of reporting system processes and functional issues (error messages, mis-directions, device malfunctions, etc.) according to organizational policies and procedures.
