Discussion: Healthcare is a patient-oriented business
Discussion: Healthcare is a patient-oriented businessDiscussion: Healthcare is a patient-
oriented businessRespond to this post.Healthcare is a patient-oriented business and should
always be centered around the patient and family members involved in their care. We, as
health care professionals, do not fulfill our due diligence when leaving the patient
uninformed of decisions that are to be made that may or may not be life altering. According
to (Hoffmann et al., 2014), both shared decision making, and evidence-based practice
cannot function without one another and are essential to each other existence. Luckily, I
have not had to be a part of an incident involving leaving the patient out of the loop and not
effectively communicating with them. Our hospital purposely enforces strict rounding that
brings together the physician, nurse, charge nurse, pharmacist and the patient and family
members. One example of a shared decision-making event was when a patient had come in
for some mild chest pain and ended up having a significant blockage seen by a heart
catheterization. After this occurred the entire healthcare team rounded on the patient and
discussed the next few steps in his plan of care. The doctors discussed that it would be
extremely beneficial to perform open heart surgery, all the while taking time for the patient
to understand the risks and allowing them to decide based upon all the factual knowledge
available. Something as simple as this not only encourages evidence-based practice but also
allows the patient to ask questions and feel like a part of this care plan. According to (Kon et
al., 2016), health care professionals needs to include three imperative parts which are
information discussion, careful consideration and making a decision. Our treatment team
provided these three essentials when discussing the need for an open-heart surgery. This
was even discussed when the patient was initially brought into the hospital prior to a heart
catheterization. The health aid I chose that was most closely related to this patients chief
complain was the coronary artery disease: Should I have an angioplasty for stable angina.
This patient did have stable angina and had a heart cath performed, but there were too
many occlusions to perform an angioplasty/stent. This decision aid would have been
appropriate for this patient before the heart cath by showing the patient his options and the
benefits/risks of the procedure. Through the utilization of this decision aid or others that
were used in the process of shared decision making, the patient was found to have
significant blockages that required an open-heart surgery. This knowledge would have
never been made aware to the staff and the patient, thus potentially saving this patients life.
I would utilize this aid in my life if anyone I personally know would need to make a decision
about getting an angioplasty as it completely lays out in detail what occurs during the
procedure, risks/benefits/ additional options, etc.ORDER NOW FOR ORIGINAL,
