Short Description:
These learner paced, interactive virtual branching case studies aim to help learners develop their noticing and clinical judgment skills. Each case study is designed to work with a specific level of learner (novice to advanced) and uses a variety of resources to help learners prepare for the experience and reflect on their actions. Concepts of patient-centered care, communication, safety and health and illness are used to demonstrate how care is provided in a variety of health care settings across the lifespan (community and acute care).

Long Description:
These learner paced, interactive virtual branching case studies aim to help learners develop their noticing and clinical judgment skills. Each case study is designed to work with a specific level of learner (novice-advanced) and uses a variety of resources to help learners prepare for the experience and reflect on their actions after. To help with this reflection, there is a Learning outcomes rubric provided for learners to identify their strengths and areas to work on and other self-reflection activities. Concepts of patient-centered care, communication, safety and health and illness are used to demonstrate how care is provided in a variety of health care settings across the lifespan (community and acute care). Case studies have been developed based on the CASN Top 10 Adult Nursing Situations for High Fidelity Simulation (2019) and include: An older adult in a community setting living with a chronic perfusion illness An older adult in medical acute care experiencing electrolyte imbalance A young adult in the community experiencing altered mood and substance use problems A deteriorating adult in surgical acute care Following the experience, facilitators have the option of leading a debrief, on one or all case studies, and can use the reflection questions provided to stimulate dialogue. As lifelong learners, learners are encouraged to utilize these case studies as many times as they would like and can use the resources contained within to support their learning.

Maternal-Newborn Nursing introduces students to the concepts and skills related to pregnancy, birth, postpartum, newborn care, reproductive health, and social determinants related to those topics. Written and thoroughly reviewed by experienced nurse educators, the material focuses on patient safety, mental health, and inclusive care and offers robust real-world scenarios and situational patient education experiences to apply concepts to practice.

Maternal-Newborn Nursing builds on the student’s existing knowledge and skills and expands their learning to new concepts and considerations. Students will be able to implement the Clinical Judgement Measurement Model to recognize, analyze, prioritize, create, act on, and evaluate outcomes throughout the many conditions presented across the life stages. The offering integrates core frameworks such as QSEN, and its robust sets of practice questions, unfolding case studies, and additional resources support the Next Generation NCLEX.

This resource provides an overview of population health concepts along with health promotion strategies utilized by advanced practice nurses. Resources are intended to be exemplary, but not exhaustive and introduce the reader to strategies that can be practiced while in graduate school as well as in healthcare settings.

Pain may activate the stress response and hence hormone secretion from the pituitary glands, adrenal glands and pancreas. This leads to substrate mobilisation and catabolism, particularly protein wasting. These effects can impair wound healing, and in the long term result in immunosuppression. They can also cause a negative energy balance, giving weight loss or poor growth in young animals. It is important to bear this fact in mind when considering the economics of analgesia in food animal production.

Long Description:
The interprofessional health care specialty of palliative care employs holistic evaluation and person-centered communication in the care of people with life-threatening illness. Palliative care clinicians are consulted for one or more of the following reasons: Symptom assessment and management Assistance with making difficult decisions about continued use or withdrawal of life-sustaining interventions Communication for planning the most appropriate care setting to meet person/family goals for end-of-life care Assessment of suitability and eligibility for hospice care

This resource is a compilation of previously published documents and tools useful to palliative care clinicians in preparing for and conduction these consultations. In addition, it can be a reference for students and clinical trainees doing course work, analyzing case studies, or simulating clinical communication scenarios. The materials are indexed for easy retrieval, referenced to acknowledge sources and allow further exploration, and organized into the following categories: Palliative Care Definitions/Domains/Dimensions Communication Symptom Assessment Functional Status Evaluation Prognostication End-of-Life Assessment and Management Symptom Management Hospice Eligibility Criteria Withholding and Withdrawing Life-Sustaining Interventions Pediatric End-of-Life Issues
