Book Home Based Medical Care for Older Adults

Download or read book Home Based Medical Care for Older Adults written by Jessica L. Colburn and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-29 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the population of older adults in the U.S. continues to grow, medical house calls are increasingly part of a system of comprehensive home-based care for patients who have difficulty accessing office-.based care. Clinicians who have been trained mostly in office and hospital settings must adapt their usual approaches to accommodate a wide range of environmental, social, and physical circumstances that impact home-limited patients. Ideally, a comprehensive team of clinicians proficient in multiple domains of functional, social, and medical care can work together to address potential gaps in any one clinician’s expertise. Unfortunately, such teams are still rare. This book aims to equip individual clinicians with the interdisciplinary knowledge, skills, and perspective they need to provide the best care possible with limited formal interdisciplinary support. This book offers 20 patient cases drawn from the collective experience of experts in home-based medical care from highly respected academic and clinical programs across the United States. Each case demonstrates a scenario that is frequently encountered and/or very important in home-based medical care practice. Each scenario frequently proves to be challenging for many professionals because it requires an approach or leverages aspects of care delivery that most are not trained in. Additionally, each scenario reflects an approach to care that is enhanced by interdisciplinary input. Finally, each case lends itself to a practical problem-solving approach that could be accomplished by most home-based medical care providers, even in the absence of an interdisciplinary team. Written by interdisciplinary experts in geriatric home-based care, this book serves as both an educational tool for learners in all related disciplines as well as a quick reference for experienced clinicians looking to augment their existing house call “toolbox.”

Book A Change in Catheter Care to Reduce CAUTI s

Download or read book A Change in Catheter Care to Reduce CAUTI s written by Winsome Jakins and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of urinary catheters has become a common standard of care for most patients that are going to be admitted to the hospital. According to Jaggi and Sissodia (2012) Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infections (CAUTI) contribute 30%-40% of all the nosocomial infections and they are associated with substantially increased institutional death rates. These rates will only continue to climb if there is not better catheter care implemented. The solution to this implementation of better catheter care is conduct a study on the old standard maintenance and care using soap and water as opposed to the current practice of chlorhexadine wipes and comparing it to the use of a specialized maintenance and care using non-medicated bath wipes. The setting would take place in the intensive care unit and would be conducted on those patients with an indwelling urinary catheter for six months. The first three months would be trialing the soap and water method and the last three months trialing the use of the non-medicated bath wipes. The materials and would consist of a bath basin, soap and water for the first three months and then non-medicated bath wipes for the last three months. The methods for implementation would be a literature review to see what resources were available and then an educational tool, demonstration on a manikin and a reverse demonstration would be done with an evaluation after the demonstration. Results of proper maintenance and care of the indwelling urinary catheter could potentially decrease the CAUTI rates significantly once patient care staff was educated properly. According to Strouse (2015) chlorhexidine (CHG) wipes were not found to lower incidence of CAUTI and these are the techniques that are being used currently and with this evidence the practice needs to change. Once the staff is properly educated and demonstrations were done, the project would be implemented and could potentially be a big benefit for the hospital by reducing CAUTI's.
