Standards for Nursing Practice and Governmental Policies with Health Technology

The American Diabetes Association’s initiative aims to improve healthcare professionals’ awareness of various diabetes technologies to help them implement cutting-edge diabetes technologies into their practice (Guo et al., 2020). Additionally, ADA pairs patients with the appropriate technology to help them achieve their goals. The ADA’s current clinical practice recommendations are included in the Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes, which also includes basic treatment goals and standards. It also includes instruments for assessing the quality of care. My nursing career will be governed by these standards and policies. The American Diabetes Association guides patients in managing a variety of chronic illnesses, coordinated patient care, and effective technology use (Guo et al., 2020). 

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

Local, state, and federal laws affect my nursing career in terms of coordinating care for diabetes patients, utilizing neighborhood resources, and employing various technologies. According to the research, federal programs such as the Century Cure Act promote the use of technology in patient care, research, and the discussion of health data via digital healthcare technologies (Cole & Florez, 2020). The Cure Act improvement aims to regulate events and administrative frameworks to minimize modification, produce predictable outcomes, and enhance patient, healthcare system, and organizational outcomes. The goal of this law is to include patient viewpoints in the design of medical devices and medications. Technological treatments also help to improve healthcare professionals’ capabilities to adapt clinical trial designs and the use of real-world data for patient outcome assessments. My patient Anne can also improve her health by utilizing the latest technologies to better manage her diabetes. The care model helps Anne to maintain their diabetes and also provides guidelines for proper care (Nguyen et al., 2021).

Ethical Professional Practice 

By restricting the use of ineffective technology, community, state, and federal regulations enhance safety of patients and decrease the risks associated with providing care. Electronic health records (EHR) are used to manage healthcare data and coordinate patient care (Wherry et al., 2021). EHR makes it simple to track and communicate patient medical records, which effectively reduces care duplication and improves coordination. It establishes authority, which helps healthcare teams develop advanced solutions to improve patient quality of care and safety in the healthcare system. It aids in increasing the effectiveness and security of telemedicine, Medicare, and EHR technology (Wherry et al., 2021).
