Read the case study presented at the end of Chapter 10, which begins The elderly patient resided at the nursing home for almost a year before she died at the hospital. (Guido, p. 183)
    Did the lack of documentation in the admitting nurse’s assessment and notes affect the ultimate outcome of this case?
    Was there negligence on the part of the nursing staff in the care of this patient?
    What could the nurse have done differently to facilitate a different outcome in this case?
    How would you decide this case?

Using the sample professional liability insurance policy (Chapter 11 p. 191-192 Figure 11-1) locate the various provisions:
    Limits of liability
    Declarations
    Deductibles
    Exclusions
    Reservation of rights
    Covered injuries
    Defense costs
    Coverage conditions and supplementary payments
    Did you have difficulty finding some of the sections? Would this be a policy that you would consider purchasing for your own liability coverage? Why or why not?

Read the case study presented at the end of Chapter 11, You Be the Judge, which begins, During an unexpected heat wave, (Guido, p. 195):
    What provisions of an insurance policy would you consult to determine if an insurance company should pay such a claim, and what would the limits of the liability be?
    Is the nursing home insurance company correct in saying that this is a professional judgment issue?
    Which insurance company (the nursing home’s or that of the administrator of the nursing home, assuming she has coverage) should pay the court-ordered judgment?
    How would you decide the case?

YOU BE THE JUDGE CHAPTER 10
The elderly patient resided in a nursing home for almost a year before she died at the hospital. She had been hospitalized for six days, with admitting diagnoses of gram negative septicemia, gram negative sepsis, and acute myeloid leukemia. Also, discovered on admission to the hospital was a necrotic Stage III pressure ulcer on her coccyx, which was nowhere documented in the clinical records from the nursing home. A review of the nursing progress notes was silent regarding any specialized mattress or other comfort devices used for this patient. The family sued on behalf of the patient, alleging that the patients demise from leukemia was linked to the negligence of the care that the patient had received in the nursing facility. The defense lawyer for the facility denied any negligence in the cause of the patients death.

YOU BE THE JUDGE CHAPTER 11
During an unexpected heat wave, the administrator of a nursing home decided against turning on the air conditioner, which resulted in the death of four of the residents of the home. One of the deceased residents daughters brought a lawsuit against the home for a wrongful death suit. She was awarded a judgment of $275,000. She then filed a second lawsuit against the nursing homes insurance company to collect payment on the judgment. The insurance company refused to pay, stating that the judgment underlying the lawsuit was professional liability and the insurance company did not cover the nursing home for professional judgment. The nursing home then filed a lawsuit against the insurance company for payment of this judgment.

Scenario

You are a nursing supervisor at a private, critical access hospital offering a variety of clinical care and hospital services to the community. As part of this role, you conduct weekly patient satisfaction phone calls regarding their hospital stay and create patient satisfaction improvement plans for the weekly leadership meetings for any patient concerns.

You just completed a disheartening phone call with a geriatric patient named Mabel who had a six-day hospital stay following a diagnosis of pneumonia. Mabel started the call sharing that fifteen years ago, she was hospitalized with pneumonia at your hospital but was very pleased with her first stay. Unfortunately, this hospital stay presented a lot of challenges for her. She shared she had to stay an extra night because the doctor never showed to sign discharge papers; the pharmacy was closed overnight, so her prescriptions werent ready; and she still had not received a bill which had to be mailed because the computer system was shut down for maintenance when she called to inquire. She continued to share that she was provided access instructions for an online portal to view her records but the link does not work, and the user ID and password she was promised would be in the discharge paperwork but was nowhere to be found. 

Instructions:

You are preparing for the weekly leadership meeting and only have one patient satisfaction improvement plan to create in response to Mabels feedback about her hospital stay. Also, they have asked each leader to bring two innovative technologies that they feel would improve patient safety to this meeting to start a conversation for purchasing new innovation. They are looking at the next fiscal year and want to budget for the integration of 2 innovations. Create an improvement plan using the format of your choice and add the two innovative technologies under the improvement plan. Be sure to include the following components:

Identify all of Mabels hospital stay concerns.
Specifically, identify how the failure of technology impacted her healthcare delivery.
Describe any innovative strategies you would recommend for improving Mabels concerns.
Identify how you will measure this innovative strategy.
Recommend two innovative technologies that the hospital should implement to promote patient safety.
Identify evidence from the literature to support how each technology has been shown to impact patient safety.
Describe how either of these innovative technologies could have improved Mabels hospital stay.

Evaluate the role and scope of practice for nursing informatics.

Scenario

You are a registered nurse employed at the local hospital working in the education department and have been asked to prepare a digital poster presentation for the local Universitys Nursing Student Associations Annual Conference next week. They have asked you to showcase a specialty in the nursing profession that has changed healthcare delivery and patient outcomes. Your supervisor suggested showcasing the various roles and scope of practice for nursing informatics as it is often not as prevalent to student nurses, as other specialties.

Instructions

You have started your digital poster presentation and sifting through the multitude of resources to support this specialty. You are carefully showcasing this profession geared for students at the baccalaureate level since that is the intended audience. You have chosen to create an infographic (i.e. Visme, Snappa, Google charts, Piktochart) as it leverages the NI profession perfectly. Specifically, the presentation guidelines require the infographic to include the following elements:

Identify various roles of nursing informatics.
Describe specific settings within your community that nursing informatics could be used
Identify two Nursing Informatics organizations or journals to provide attendees with more information.
Explain how the building blocks of Nursing Informatics prepare nurses for practice
Examine defining characteristics from the scope of practice for nursing informatics
Describe educational requirements for the role
Analyze the impact nurse informatics has had on healthcare delivery.
How has it specifically impacted patient outcomes?
Describe the future of Nursing Informatics and its impact on healthcare delivery.

Scenario

You are a staff nurse at Healing Spaces Hospital, and through your dedication and passion for healthcare technologies, you have been voted as the nursing delegate to sit on the Emerging Innovations Steering Committee. In preparing for your first committee meeting you have read through the last year of meeting minutes and determined what the past nursing delegate had achieved and what future goals were set for this specific role. The meeting minutes from last month show that the steering committee is currently looking at emerging communication technologies and how the hospital can leverage cost effective technological advances. In preparation for the first meeting you have created a list of best practices based on your scholarly research and create a list of action plans for leveraging these into practice.

Instructions

You have just walked into your first steering committee meeting and quickly see this committee is ready to move forward with levering technology specific to communication. As the nursing delegate, you have been tasked with creating a comparative analysis of two communication technologies and how they can be used to improve communication between healthcare teams as well as how it can influence patient outcomes. Before the next monthly committee meeting, they want you to send them a comparative analysis using a format of your choice (i.e. table) of two communication technologies that you feel best improve safety and quality healthcare. Write a comparative analysis including the following:

Discuss the two selected communication technologies you have chosen with support from scholarly research
Describe the function of each technology
Analyze how it is used in the healthcare setting
Examine how the two selected technologies can be used to improve communication among the healthcare team.
Provide a specific practice example from the literature to support how each technology has been shown to improve communication among the healthcare team.
Discuss how each communication technology has been shown to improve patient outcomes.

Scenario

You are a nursing case manager working in a 100 bed community hospital in a rural setting. Many clients are elderly with chronic health conditions and have several factors that impair their timeliness of follow-up appointments for chronic care management. Since they are remote, the hospital struggles to meet the needs of this community health population. Therefore, the hospital experiences a delay in client care and chronic care management due to a lack of provider access. Many clients also report having to align transportation needs for their nurse appointments which further limits their availability. Recently, client complaints have increased with regards to lack of reliable, prompt service for client chronic care consults and lingering concerns for their overall health.

Instructions

A Clinical Standards and Innovations Committee has been created to look at leveraging technology to expand care for remote, community health populations. The Chief Nursing Officer has assigned you to this committee to examine strategies for best practice related to use of telehealth to support rural settings and expand care to all community populations. As the lead RN on the committee you have been tasked with leading the telehealth initiative and have one month to research, analyze, and propose the best evidence based strategy to implement telehealth services through telecommunications-ready tools. You will present your findings to the Chief Nursing Office and CEO of the facility in a succinct one-page summary leveraging your committees recommendation. They have asked for the summary to include the following components:

Discuss the defining characteristics of telehealth
Include your own definition of telehealth
How does telehealth impact the nursing role
Examine how telehealth is currently integrated in healthcare
Describe the evidence based practice that supports the use of telehealth in rural and community healthcare settings.
Provide a detailed description of your recommended evidence based strategy to implement telehealth
Provide rationale supporting your strategy
Summary to include current evidence from the literature.
