NURS3001 Sem 1 2020 ‐ Case Study 1 CASE STUDY (WORD LIMIT = 1800 WORDS +/- 10%) What do we need to do? This group assessment is worth 25 marks and assists you achieve unit learning outcomes: ULO 1: Evaluate common behavioural responses to illness, and physical and psychological disability within different community acute contexts; and ULO 4: Analyse communication strategies employed by individuals, families and the interprofessional health care team to assist adaptive responses to acute illness. This assessment builds on your annotated bibliography assessment and uses the same case study videos. While watching the videos, you should have identified that there were areas where health professionals could improve their practice to improve patient outcomes. This assessment requires your group to evaluate your case study person’s behavioural and psychological responses to their illness and situation (i.e., the physical and social environment). You will also need to identify and evaluate the communication strategies used by health professionals during that person’s experience. Lastly, the assessment asks you to formulate specific and explicit recommendations you would make to the health service to overcome the issues/problems/concerns you have identified. Detailed instructions are as follows: • Your paper should have a title above a brief introduction paragraph where you introduce your topic, provide context to the issue, outline the main topics/ideas that your paper will discuss (e.g. “This paper first discusses…. then examines….”) so that your reader has a clear map to navigate your paper and knows what to expect. Additionally, your paper should have a brief conclusion paragraph at the end of your paper where you briefly summarise your paper and restate your main ideas. • After the introduction paragraph, give a very brief overview of the person in the case study. This should be no more than approximately 200 words. The idea is that the reader should get a sense of the main concerns in this person’s presentation but we do not need to know everything about them – only the main key concerns that you are going to talk about later in your paper. We are also aware that the case study videos contain missing information about the person so we are only interested in what information they do provide in their stories (i.e., you do not need to mention things like “unknown age” if it is not known etc. Your marker is aware that information is missing). • In the next section, you need to evaluate the case study person’s behavioural and psychological responses to their illness and situation (i.e., the physical and social environment). You must actively compare, contrast, analyse, and apply the research literature to explain why the person experienced those particular responses. Different people respond very differently to the same illness and situation so you need to compare and contrast the research literature with your person’s responses to explain why the person in the video responded in the way they did to manage their responses to the illness and their situation. For all content in this section, you must focus on the person’s psychological/behavioural characteristics, as well as the physical and social environment rather than the person’s physical illness and pathophysiology as explanations for their responses. This section will synthesise the ideas initially presented in your individual annotated bibliographies. • In the next section, you need to identify and evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the communication strategies used by the health professionals (either as outlined by the case study person in the nursing videos or strategies you have observed in the paramedicine students’ video). Determine which strategies appeared to improve the outcome for the person and ones that could have been done better. It is not necessarily that the communication was ‘wrong’, rather there are elements of the communication that may have resulted in an even better outcome for the person if conducted differently. You will need to compare and contrast the communication strategies identified in the video to those you have read about in the research literature to determine which elements are most likely to affect patient outcomes, both positively and negatively. You must then apply the findings of this research to the case study scenario. NURS3001 Sem 1 2020 ‐ Case Study 2 • Lastly, you need to make two (2) specific and explicit recommendations to the health service to overcome the issues/problems/concerns you have identified. What could the health service do differently next time to improve the experiences of future patients and enhance their health outcomes? Your suggestions must be able to be implemented by nurses or paramedics (relative to your degree enrolment) and be focused on the behavioural and psychological aspects of this case study. It is not appropriate to simply say nurses and paramedics should refer to other health professionals, such as psychologists and social workers to fix the issues you have identified. Your recommendations must be about aspects of patient care that are led by nurses or paramedics and explain how these would be specifically built into everyday practice (e.g., policies and procedures etc.) so that all relevant staff were implementing your recommendations. It is also not enough to simply write “Provide education to the ward nurses/paramedics”. You need to be specific, that is, you must explain what sort of education would be provided, as well as when it will be implemented, where, how, to who, and why. How are you going to get staff to actually put these recommendations into practice? Remember that people's actual behaviour often does not reflect their education or knowledge about something (e.g., most smokers are well aware of the health risks of smoking but continue anyway – it is not because they have a lack of knowledge about this). This section should not read like a care plan for your particular case study person. The idea is to make broader ward/hospital/health service suggestions and recommendations that nurses and paramedics (and other key stakeholders such as managers and policy makers) reading your paper could initiate to improve their service and/or prevent similar issues occurring to their patients in future. You will need to support your recommendations with research literature demonstrating your ideas have merit and an evidence- base. • APA 7th ed. format reference list. How do we submit the assessment? The assessment is to be submitted online by ONE member of your group as a Word or Word compatible (NOT PDF or .pages) document using the Turnitin link only. The student who submits the drafts to Turnitin needs to be the same student who submits the final document. The student who submits the final document must ensure that all group members agree for that version of the document to be submitted for assessment. The assessment was previously due on Sunday May 3rd 2020. It is now due by 2359hrs (WST) on Sunday 10th May 2020 (Week 10). DO NOT JUST LOOK AT THE TURNITIN % SCORE – THERE IS NO “SAFE” % SCORE. YOU MUST LOOK AT THE REPORT ITSELF. It is your responsibility to ensure you submit your drafts to Turnitin as early as possible before the due date so that you have enough time to act on the Turnitin feedback report. Drafts will be overwritten with only the last version submitted being eligible for marking. Late penalties apply to submissions after the due date as per the Unit Outline. Please ensure your Turnitin submission title AND .doc/.docx document file name is in the following format: StudentID_SubmittingStudentFamilyName_AssessmentTitle e.g., 12345678_Windsor_CS It is your responsibility to ensure that you have uploaded the correct document (e.g., not a draft, the wrong file, or an unreadable/corrupt file) to the correct submission portal before the due date and time. Please double check on Blackboard that you have correctly submitted a document to the submission portal rather than assume that everything went through ok. If you have any problems uploading your assessment (e.g., if Turnitin or Blackboard are not working on the due date) please email the Unit Coordinator with a copy of your final document for assessment as soon as possible before the due date and time. Also ensure you have received a Turnitin receipt via email - if you have not received a receipt then your submission has not gone through. All group members are responsible for preventing plagiarism and academic dishonesty within a group assessment. Curtin University considers falsely representing the amount of work you did as part of a group assessment to be academic misconduct. If you did not adequately participate and/or contribute in the group work for this assessment, you cannot claim it as your own work. Additionally, it is also considered academic misconduct for group members to attribute authorship to those group members who failed to adequately participate and/or contribute to the group work (p. 13 of Curtin’s Student Guidelines for Avoiding Plagiarism). If the group is encountering major issues with one or more group members and/or want to dispute the amount of work a member contributed to the submitted assessment (and you have already attempted to address these and are able to provide evidence of attempts to rectify the issue), then the group must contact the Unit Coordinator BEFORE submission of the NURS3001 Sem 1 2020 ‐ Case Study 3 assessment and the assessment marks are released. A Group Contract has been provided on Blackboard to assist you plan and manage your group work. How does this assessment relate to and assist me achieve my profession’s national practice/capability standards? Nursing Students This assessment has been designed to assist you to continue developing your skills in relation to the following standards of the “Registered Nurse Standards for Practice” (NMBA, 2016): “Standard 1: Thinks critically and analyses nursing practice. RNs use a variety of thinking strategies and the best available evidence in making decisions and providing safe, quality nursing practice within person-centred and evidence-based frameworks. The registered nurse accesses, analyses, and uses the best available evidence, that includes research findings, for safe, quality practice” (p. 3). “Standard 5: Develops a plan for practice. RNs are responsible for the planning and communication of nursing practice. Agreed plans are developed in partnership. They are based on the RNs appraisal of comprehensive, relevant information, and evidence that is documented and communicated; uses assessment data and best

Strengths of the communication strategies used by the health professionals
Communication is one of the key to
helping patients in the field of nursing. Good communication skills allow the nurses to learn what the patient is having with problems and thus can make a care plan accordingly mentioned James (2020). In this video interview with Thomas, there are many communication strategies used by the health care professionals that strengthen the communication.
The most important strength shown by the nurses according to Thomas was their patience as the nurses reinsured him again and again even when he had recurring infections. Thomas had to be shifted from general ward to the critical care unit as he had recurrence of infections and the nurses were patient with him. He also mentioned that he was dependent on the nurses for communication and the nurses showed good non-verbal communication skill when they gave him hope with just eye contact also stated by Pehrson (2016).
Thomas felt secure and cared for when he was at the hospital which means that the nurses were very good with their work both verbal and practical. The continuous talks that the...
