NURS FPX 4900 Assessment 3 Assessing the Problem Technology Care Coordination and Community Resources Considerations

Interoperability is essential for quitting smoking because it enables the sharing of relevant data between healthcare providers and organizations involved in patient care. Legal ramifications, such as fines for medical personnel for disclosing addicted patient information without authorization, highlight the significance of secure interoperability. This guarantees that the health plan for Daniel to quit smoking is reliable and consistent (Kadakia et al., 2021).

The ALA provides thorough endorsements for quitting tobacco use, with a focus on evidence-based methods that support people in giving up smoking. The ALA’s guidelines address several topics, such as medication, counseling, and behavioral interventions (Liu et al., 2022). To improve accessibility, the ALA promotes using quitlines, support groups, and online resources. These recommendations seek to enhance the success of tobacco cessation and promote lung health in general by addressing the psychological and physical components of tobacco addiction (Leone et al., 2020). 

I can efficiently influence technology, such as offering telehealth services, to support Daniel, ensuring effective care coordination and utilizing community resources optimally. Adhering to ethical professional practice guidelines implies promoting Daniel’s well-being through beneficence and non-maleficence. Additionally, safeguarding Protected Health Information (PHI) becomes a priority when implementing ethical professional guidelines (Leone et al., 2020). I have also recorded two practicum hours spent with Daniel, exploring his engagement with technology and its impact on improvement in well-being.

Conclusion

In conclusion, treating tobacco addiction needs an inclusive strategy that incorporates health technology and community resources. A comprehensive approach to tobacco cessation can be supported by utilizing organizational guidelines, ethical professional practices, and technological advancements to improve Daniel’s health outcomes.
