NURS FPX 4050 Assessment 3 Care Coordination Presentation to Colleagues NURS-FPX 4050 Coord Patient-Centered Care ​​​​​​​Care Coordination Presentation to Colleagues

Greetings to all! I am Manjit, a health coordinator. The session will deliver essential aspects of care coordination approaches for working with people and communities. I will also cover features for change management, the benefit of ethical decision-making, and the impact of healthcare strategies on care coordination. 

Care coordination is an extensive strategy vital for managing patient health care, particularly with long-term diseases. It assures the timely and appropriate provision of care to each patient’s needs and preferences. Care coordination includes primary care, prevention, diagnosis, self-management support, interprofessional care, and disease therapy. Care coordination is essential for increased efficiency, lower costs, and improved care measures (Khatri et al., 2023).

Evidence-Based Strategies of Nurses for Collaborating with Patients

Effective collaboration is required between nurses, the healthcare team, and patients for the desired health outcomes. Evidence-based educational programs that are culturally appropriate and modified to specific medicines are essential. It enhances care delivery and improves collaboration (Jeong & Park, 2022).

Patient Education

Effective patient education is essential for patients and caregivers to take responsibility for their diseases. It is necessary to update the patient and their family participants about medication administration and challenges throughout the care coordination strategy. Educational initiatives have positive effects on behaviors, disease outcomes, and general quality of life for a variety of patient demographics. Nurses have an essential contribution to the success of educational programs (Correia et al., 2022).

Nurses collaborate with patients to provide efficient support and education about medicine, treatments, and possible drug adverse effects. Nurses educate patients using preferred language and culturally relevant and evidence-based care coordination strategies. The expansion of digital technology facilitates patient education in healthcare settings by using various smart apps to achieve desired health outcomes (Correia et al., 2022).

Shared Decision-Making

Shared Decision-Making (SDM) is a cooperative approach between patients and medical specialists collaborating to make decisions about assessment and treatment options. Person freedom and contribution to healthcare SDM are critical components of care coordination (Galletta et al., 2022). SDM encourages patients to manage and be responsible for their health through different aspects of care. Nurses are an integral part of SDM, raise awareness of health issues, and encourage adherence to preventative measures. Patients feel more empowered and make fewer clinical mistakes in the SDM process to attain better outcomes (Galletta et al., 2022).  

Cultural Competence Strategies

Cultural competence is essential for addressing the issue of culturally diverse patients and its influence on the early provision of quality care. It encourages healthcare experts to give patients and their families safe, efficient, and excellent care. Cultural competence promotes the health of all patients, especially those from minority backgrounds, through awareness, knowledge, sensitivity, and understanding (Solanas et al., 2022). Culturally competent caregivers frequently see reduced healthcare costs and more productive care coordination. Nurse-patient and family collaboration can be significantly improved by implementing techniques like raising cultural sensitivity and incorporating patient values into care plans. It develops effective cross-cultural communication to enhance patient health outcomes (Solanas et al., 2022).

Role of Communication in Care Coordination

Efficient communication in care coordination is essential in providing personalized care. Nurses and healthcare professionals encourage patients to listen to their concerns and preferences actively. Evidence-based resources empower patients and families to participate actively in their care decisions and enhance confidence (Hellzén et al., 2022). Effective communication improved patient understanding, health outcomes, and patient-centered care coordination. Nurses can gather systematic assessment data, engage patients in modified care plans, and guarantee smooth communication between patients and medical teams. Linguistic difficulties, social capability, and health terminology knowledge are all significant factors of active collaboration to deliver patients quality healthcare (Hellzén et al., 2022).
