Week 3 Clinical Questioning Assignment

Guidelines & Scoring Rubric

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to provide educator students with a tool for working with nursing students and staff members when they are caring for complex healthcare cases.

Course Outcomes

Through this assignment, the student will demonstrate the ability to:

CO 3 Integrate pathophysiologic mechanisms with advanced assessment and pharmacologic concepts to maximize patient outcomes in complex disease states. (PO 1, 4)

CO 5 Analyze risk factors associated with complex disease states in individuals, aggregates, and populations to devise effective disease management and/or health promotion strategies that reflect pertinent psychosocial, cultural, legal, ethical, and safety considerations. (PO 4, 6)

CO 7 Examine mechanisms and processes of homeostatic, adaptive, and compensatory physiological functions in complex disease states with an emphasis on appropriate assessment strategies and pharmacologic interventions. (PO 1, 4)

CO 8 Determine clinical data essential to identifying specified pathophysiologic or psychologic problems and the best plan of care. (PO 1, 4)

CO 10 Correlate changes and disruptions in major physiological systems and pathophysiological mechanisms with clinical data resulting from physical examination, laboratory data, and diagnostic test data with anticipated pharmacologic treatment. (PO 1, 4, 11)

Due Date:Sunday 11:59 p.m. MT at the end of Week 3

Requirements:
In this assignment you are the nursing professional development specialist (NPD specialist, formerly called the “staff educator”) assisting your assigned new graduate nurse in applying the nursing process. In the role of NPD specialist, you will not only take care of your patient at an advanced level, incorporating advanced physical assessment findings, associated pathophysiologic mechanisms that underlie the presenting disease, and the appropriate pharmacologic treatment approach, you will also consider the educational needs of your orientee.

1. Review Charles Gibson’s electronic health record, which provides information that is necessary to care for him in Second Life (SL) in the Emergency Department.

2. Meet and greet Charles Gibson and his wife, obtaining pertinent health history information as prompted.

3. Take special note of the objective and subjective data obtained, including the National Institute of Health (NIH) Scale for Stroke score and the prescriber’s orders.

4. As you develop this assignment, remember that you need at least two peer-reviewed references.

5. Be sure that your assignment has a cover page and a reference list with proper APA formatting.

Preparing the paper
While your patient, Charles Gibson, is in CT scan, you are to take some time to reflect with your orientee. This assignment requires you to develop five reflective questions that pertain to your mutual case, Charles Gibson. Use the NR526_W3_Clinical_Questioning_Templatefound in “Course Resources” to complete this assignment.

1. Develop a question that pertains to the first five minutes that you spent with the patient. Stop and consider what would be obvious to you as an expert clinician, but would not be obvious to the developing graduate nurse. Your question can be a two-part question or a one-part question. Provide the appropriate answer to the question that you posed. Be sure your answer includes references, proper citations, and adequate detail to support a comprehensive answer.(The answer should be approximately 100 words.)

2. Develop a question that addresses the prescriber’s orders. Is there an order that exemplifies a treatment approach for “brain attack”? How would you promote critical thought for a new graduate in order to support his or her analysis and evaluation of new orders? Provide the appropriate answer to the question that you posed. Be sure your answer includes references, proper citations, and adequate detail to support a comprehensive answer. (The answer should be approximately 100 words.)

3. Develop a question that stimulates the graduate nurse to think about the pathophysiologic basis for the patient’s presenting disease. Provide the appropriate answer to the question that you posed. Be sure your answer includes references, proper citations, and adequate detail to support a comprehensive answer. (The answer should be approximately 100 words.)

4. Develop a second question that has the graduate nurse think about the pathophysiologic basis for the patient’s presenting disease. Provide the appropriate answer to the question that you posed. Be sure your answer includes references, proper citations, and adequate detail to support a comprehensive answer. (The answer should be approximately 100 words.)

5. Develop a question of your choice about this case. Consider where you were on the learning curve as a graduate nurse. Consider how you would promote critical thought and developing knowledge for a graduate nurse. Provide the appropriate answer to the question that you posed. Be sure your answer includes references, proper citations, and adequate detail to support a comprehensive answer. (The answer should be approximately 100 words.)
