Quotes From The Trenches © 2008 www. Alfaro. Teach. Smart. com 8
The public needs to know that nurses -- regular, ordinary bedside nurses, not just nurse practitioners or advanced practice nurses -- are constantly participating in the act of medical diagnosis, prescription, and treatment and thus make a real difference in medical outcomes. Nurses can help the public understand that nursing is a package of medical, technical, caring, nursing knowhow -- that nurses save lives, prevent suffering, and save money. If nurses wear not only their hearts, but also their brains on © 2008 www. Alfaro. Teach. Smart. com their sleeves. Perhaps the public…. will 9
How are you all dealing with staff “change fatigue? ” Our staff is constantly bombarded with new JCAHO and other requirements. They’re already overwhelmed with work. How do you get new information to them in a timely way at a time when they can handle it? How do you get them to come to educational © 2008 www. Alfaro. Teach. Smart. com 10
I was just asked to "investigate" the possibility of starting a RN PICC team. This team would consist of RNs on various units throughout the medical center. Our intensive care nursery just did this, but now the VP wants it to go house-wide. Any ideas, comments, and how to's would be much appreciated as this is not a specialty of mine! © 2008 www. Alfaro. Teach. Smart. com 11
I wouldn’t call this a PICC team and would run the other direction as fast as I could. For the past 15 years of training hospitals to place PICCs, I have seen many, many facilities try this approach and fail over and over again. First, PICC insertion is a complex process that demands an advanced body of knowledge about vascular anatomy, central venous catheter technology, and nursing care and complication management. © 2008 www.

WORRIED WELL & WALKING WOUNDED Many patients today are the “worried well” (people who don’t need a doctor, but think they might) and “walking wounded” (people who are living with--or recovering from-- complex injuries or chronic illnesses at home). Knowledgeable staff with highly skilled thinking, communication, and coaching abilities are cost-effective coaches who help people manage their health at home © 2008 www. Alfaro. Teach. Smart. com 14
CRISIS IN CRITICAL THINKING Only 35% of new RN graduates, regardless of educational preparation and credentials, meet entry expectation for clinical judgment. Although well-versed in content, the majority are unable, or have considerable difficulty translating knowledge and theory into practice. (Del. Bueno, 2005, p 279) © 2008 www. Alfaro. Teach.

WHAT DO LAWS SAY? Unless you’re an Advanced Practice Nurse state laws prohibit you from making medical diagnoses independently. (Buppert, 2008) You are, however, accountable for giving high priority to assessing for--and reporting--- signs and symptoms that may indicate the need for attention from a professional more qualified than you © 2008 www. Alfaro. Teach. Smart. com 17
INCREASED RESPONSIBILITIES 1. Not expected to make definitive dx 2. Are expected to recognize when signs and symptoms may indicate a common problem (Diabetes, MI, CHF, Pulmonary Embolus). 3. They are the first in the chain of command a lot of responsibility goes with this. © 2008 www. Alfaro. Teach. Smart. com 18
EXAMPLE If the patient has signs and symptoms of an MI (chest pain-shortness of breath), you’re accountable for: • suspecting that this could be the problem • recognizing that it’s a high priority, • doing what you can to address the problem (e. g. raise the head of the © 2008 www.

ACTIVATING THE CHAIN OF COMMAND • Follow policies and procedures for getting help • Be persistent---stay with the problems until the patient gets the qualified help they need. © 2008 www. Alfaro. Teach. Smart. com 20
