DQ1: Communication and Problem Solving
Research the question listed below and share the information
with your classmates;
Address all the points listed in the question;
All citations and references should be in APA format.
As the manager of an acute care nursing unit, you are
approached by Jacklyn Smith, MD and Matthew Gonzalez, NP. They express frustration because the morning
vital signs are often not completed by the time they arrive on the unit. You
tell them you will look into it and see what you can do to facilitate a more
efficient process. After investigating, you find the following:
An RN must take the initial set of vital signs on each shift
in your facility per policy. An aide can take subsequent vital signs.
Vital signs are to be taken minimally every 8 hours.
The shift changes at 0700 and the RNs are in report until
0730.
The health care providers arrive at approximately 0730 and
usually leave by 0830.
Aides change shift at 0700, and use the last 30 minutes of
their shift to complete their documentation.
Using the five part problem solving process from your
readings, discuss how you will address this issue so the health care providers
get the information they need to make patient care decisions. Discuss how you
will modify the process, while still observing both policy and practices on
your unit. Analyze what communication strategies would be most effective in
implementing a change that is sustainable.
