The document discusses patient teaching by nurses. It defines patient teaching as informing patients to secure consent, cooperation, and compliance. The main purposes of patient teaching are to maintain health, prevent illness, and teach patients to cope with their condition. The process of patient teaching involves assessing learning needs, developing objectives, planning and implementing teaching, evaluating learning, and documenting. Key aspects of effective patient teaching include considering the patient's condition, background, and ensuring the environment supports learning.
“Patient Education is an individualized, systematic, structured process to assess and impart knowledge or develop a skill in order to effect a change in behavior. The goal is to increase comprehension and participation in the self-management of health care needs.”

Patient & Family Education: A Multi-modal approach to improve the experienceWellbe
This session will describe educational concepts to enhance the orthopaedic patient experience. The elective nature of orthopedic surgery creates an opportunity to intervene with patients and family early and often throughout the episode of care. Multimodal teaching strategies (individual, group learning, written materials and web based tools) delivered prior to surgery and reinforced multiple times across care transitions can reduce anxiety, increase satisfaction, improve ability to manage pain and help patients feel more prepared for surgery.
Improving the patient experience is increasingly important as quality and satisfaction metrics are becoming linked to reimbursement. Transitional care interventions, such as discharge planning, follow up calls with emphasis on participation in self care have shown to improve continuity of care, reduce readmissions and prevent poor health outcomes.
About the Speaker:
Jack Davis MSN, RN, ONC is the Manager of Patient Education Programs at Hospital for Special Surgery in NYC. Jack has over 30 years experience in orthopaedic nursing. He has been an active member of the National Association of Orthopaedic Nurses (NAON) since 1991. Jack currently serves as Director of the Orthopaedic Nurses Certification Board (ONCB).

How to Reduce Readmissions by Changing Patient EducationChuck Jones
The challenge is no longer finding the perfect medication but rather convincing the patient to take their medication as prescribed. It's no longer providing discharge instructions but educating the patient so they understand the need to follow through on behavior change to avoid repeating habits that brought them to the hospital in the first place.
10 Tips for Selecting Video for Your Patient Education LibraryChuck Jones
Patient education can no longer be left to the last few minutes before discharge. It must begin with admission. Video is the perfect tool to use throughout the patient's stay. Here are 10 tips on selecting video for your hospital's patient education video library.

What technology challenges are you facing today? A recent forum of CTO's found that while funding is an on-going issue there are other challenges that can be equally as daunting.
To compound the technology issues, a recent survey found that only 51% of school districts had their own IT Director. This means 49% of Districts are staffed by a part-timer (i.e. Principal or Teacher) or the position is not staffed. Given the growing importance of integrating IT and Digital Learning this could be a major obstacle for many districts.
We've highlighted some of the challenges and provided resources where available to help you chart a course.

Overview
Develop a educational program on the nursing process to first semester students.
Utilize advance nursing knowledge to assist students in understanding the nursing process, critical thinking skills, and implementation needed to deliver best nursing practice.
This practicum experience will involve teaching novice-nursing students beginning their first semester of the nursing program. It is at this time that students are introduced to the nursing process and critical thinking skills. Nurse educator teaches the students that the American Nurses Association Standards hold the nursing process as the framework for critical thinking. The writer chose the nursing as an educational curriculum to provide a thorough understanding of the nursing process for the nursing students to gain knowledge of critical thinking, problem soloing, and passing of the NCLEX-RN examination. The nursing process is used by nurses worldwide to explore the delivery of care.

The nursing process was developed in the 1950’s as an educational tool to promote patient centered nursing.
It provides a solid framework for the nursing practice.
It is integrated throughout in the nursing curricular in most of the nursing colleges and the National Council Licensure Examination-Registered Nurse (NCLEX-RN).
It provides the student the ability to use critical thinking skills and response on the basic of the scientific method.
A scientific method that us a step-by-step process to identify and problem solve.
Critical thinking is a vital process for the students to connect the dot in the nursing process.
Introduction
The nursing process was introduced in the 1955 by Hall and Johnson (1959). Nursing process is the essential core of practice for the nurse to provide holistic, patient-centered care. It is provide critical thinking competency that should be taught through out the nursing curriculum. The nursing process is a systematic approach to identifying patient’s actual problem or potential problems and establish a plan to meet the identified needs. It is a process that can be implemented in all areas of nursing. The nursing process is a framework that nursing students and nurses should use consistently and methodically use throughout their career to enable them to organize data and deliver evidenced based practice-nursing care.

#5 problem objectives
The nursing process and critical thinking is the essential core of practice for nursing students to deliver holistic, patient, patient-centered care. It is important that novice-nursing student learn what the nursing process is and how it will be used throughout their nursing career. According (1998) to Ferguson objectives are statements of desired behaviors, observable, teachable, and learnable that exhibit evidence of learning. The objectives are written to assist the students to focus on what is the important to learn. The students chosen for this program are first year novice nursing students.
#6 Program Agenda
This is an ongoing program that will be taught every Monday from 10.00 am to 11:30am. Their will be two instructor teaching this program, and will have a total of fifteen students each. The class will be held on the first floor, room 128 and 130. At the beginning of class I introduced myself and give a short summary of my nursing experience. Overview of what is expected from the students for them to succeed in learning the nursing process and critical thinking skills. At the end of class time will be allowed for answers and questions and the students given a folder which included the syllabus, handouts ,and how to excess webinars and tutorials.

Nurses’ patient education is important for building patients’ knowledge, understanding and preparedness for self-management. The ultimate goal of patient educational program is to achieve long-lasting changes in behavior by providing patients with the knowledge to allow them to make autonomous decisions to take ownership of their care as much as possible and improve their own outcomes.
CONCEPT OF PATIENT EDUCATION
Education on health issues is necessary for a patient’s physical and mental health.
Everybody finds themselves in situations where they require special knowledge and skills in order to meet their basic needs and sustain their lives.
All patients have the right to be educated on maintaining their health, disease prevention, and health promotion.
Health promotion is the process of advancing knowledge, influencing attitudes, and determining relevant solutions so that people can make informed choices, change their behavior and subsequently attain a desirable level of physical and mental health improve their social and physical environment.
Effective patient education starts from the time patients are admitted to the hospital and continuous until they are discharged. Nurses should take advantage of any appropriate opportunity throughout a patient’s stay to teach the patient about self-care.
The self- care instruction may include teaching patients how to inject insulin, bathe an infant or change a colostomy pouching system.
MEANING OF PATIENT EDUCATIONThe Latin origin of the word doctor “decree” means “to teach" and the education of patients and their families, as well as communities, is the responsibility of all physicians.
Family physicians are uniquely suited to take a leadership role in patient education.
Family physicians build long- term, trusting relationships with patients, providing opportunities to encourage and reinforce changes in health behavior.
Patient education enables patients to assume better responsibility for their own health care, improving patients’ ability to manage acute and chronic disorders.
Patient education provides opportunities to choose healthier lifestyles and practice preventive medicine.
Patient education attracts patients to the provider and increases patients’ satisfaction with their care, while at the same time decreasing the provider’s risk of liability.
Patient education promotes patient-centered care and as a result, patients’ active involvement in their plan of care.
Patient education increases adherence to medication and treatment regimens, leading to a more efficient and cost- effective health care delivery system
Patient education ensures continuity of care and reduces the complications related to illness and incidence of disorder/disease.
Patient education maximizes the individual’s independence with home exercise programs and activities that promote independence in activities of daily living as well as continuity of care needed

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
3. Patient Teaching
Nurse can perform patient Teaching as and when
required.
This could be more fruitful if it is planned properly
after the assessment, nurse understands the
clients educational background, his perception
about health , illness, his disease condition and
overall his knowledge.
Nurse should always be ready for incidental Health
Teaching to the patient depending on the
situation and the need and the incident.
4. Purposes of Patient Teaching
• The three main purposes of patient education
are
1. To maintain and promote health
2. Prevent illness, restore the patient’s health,
3. Teach the patient how to cope with their
condition.
5. • So in order to fulfill these goals, it is the
responsibility of the nurse to educate the
patient appropriately and successfully in order
to receive understanding from the patient. To
do so, there are some imperative (important)
components the nurse needs to consider
before following through with the teaching
process.
6. Prerequisites(Preliminary assessment) of Patient
Education
1. Before even starting to educate the patient,
the nurse must always assess the patient to
see what type of environment will be most
beneficial for them and factors that may
interfere.
2. Another component to consider about the
environment is appropriate lighting,
temperature, and furniture.
7. 3. Along with comfort, it is important to always
asses the patient for any pain before proceeding.
Pain would interfere with my patient’s necessary
level of strength in order to perform learned skills
and distract them from the learning material.
Also she should be well-rested in order to stay
alert and fully engaged in discussions for
maximum learning. The patient should always be
assessed for coordination and sensory acuity as
well in order for them to perform certain motor
skills and receive and respond to messages being
taught. Lastly, the nurse must take into
consideration their condition and how it may
interfere with the learning process.
8. Importance of Patient Teaching
• Patient education enables patients to assume
better responsibility for their own health care,
improving patients’ ability to manage acute and
chronic disorders.
• Patient education provides opportunities to
choose healthier lifestyles and practice
preventive medicine.
• Patient education attracts patients to the
provider and increases patients’ satisfaction with
their care, while at the same time decreasing the
provider’s risk of liability.
•
9. Importance of Patient Teaching conti..
• Patient education promotes patient-centered
care and as a result, patients’ active involvement
in their plan of care.
• Patient education increases adherence to
medication and treatment regimens, leading to a
more efficient and cost-effective health care
delivery system.
• Patient education ensures continuity of care and
reduces the complications related to illness and
incidence of disorder/disease.
• Patient education maximizes the individual’s
independence with home exercise programs and
activities that promote independence in activities
of daily living as well as continuity of care.
10. Process of Patient Teaching/Education
The process of patient teaching refers to the steps
you follow to provide teaching and to measure
learning.
The steps involved in the teaching-learning process
are:
1. Assessing learning needs
2. Developing learning objectives
3. Planning and implementing patient teaching
4. Evaluating patient learning
5. Documenting patient teaching and learning
11. 1. Assessing the Learning needs
Learning needs vary according to the patients
health status every time during his stay in the
hospital and even after the follow up visits.
e.g. On admission the patient teaching would
include the ?????
Before starting of the treatment patient would want
to know???
Before the surgery or during any special treatment
or investigation patient must understand it…….
12. 2. Developing learning objectives
• What you want to achieve at the end of the
teaching should reflect in the learning
objectives of the patient.
• Objectives should be achievable and
assessable.
• Mention clearly what is expected form the
patient in relation to his attitude, lifestyle,
understanding etc.
13. Planning and implementing patient teaching
Always be ready for patient teaching.
P.T can be more fruitful if it is well planned and
organised.
Planning is done according to the need of the patient.
Environment, Time of the P.T., patients health status
has be taken into consideration.
Good to take an appointment with the patient and fix
the time of the P.T. and also tell the approximate time
you are going to require.
Use of charts, flash cards, posters can be useful.
Introduce the topic and also don’t forget to tell the
patient and the family that they may stop you anytime
during the patient teaching to clear their doubt.
Before ending the P.T. confirm that client understood
the topic and also whether the objectives of the P.T. are
achieved.
14. Evaluating the patient teaching
• Check out the P.T. objectives.
• Evaluate the P.T. according to the objectives
met/unmet/needs more time to change the
attitude of the patient.
• Take feed back from the patient, family
members, and other patients if at all they
were attending the P.T.
15. Documenting the P.T.
• Document the Patient Teaching, along with the
Topic, Time, patients response and number of
participants who attended the P.T. to avoid the
repetition of the information for the patient and
prevent health care professional from repeated
works.
• It is safe for the nurse because client may admit
some time that he was unaware about the facts
that created harmful situation for him or
others(Oxygenation –safety precautions).
16. Role of Nurse in Patient Teaching
a. When focusing in on my patients learning needs, before I
begin the teaching process, I must ask a number of
questions and perform specific assessments. This is
important to determine her readiness and ability to learn.
b. The very first thing that I must ask is if she is willing or
able to accept the reality of her illness, which my patient
states she is.
c. So the next step I would need to do is introduce a
teaching plan. In order to provide an effective teaching
plan you must consider the developmental and physical
factors of your patient. For my patient I assessed her to
make sure she was able to read and write. This will make
the learning process much easier, allowing her to
understand and apply the things she is learning.
17. d. Another consideration I need to take is her age. Since my
patient is an elder, the best teaching approach would be
in short sessions and making sure she is involved in
discussions. According to LeCroy (2009), “To decrease
frustration in the learning process, information should be
given in an easy-to-understand format since the learner’s
attention can wane after only 10 minutes” (p 155).
e. Next you have to consider their physical capability. This is
an obstacle for my patient because she is morbidly obese
and is limited in movement. So in order for her to learn, I
think it would be more beneficial to use a cognitive or
visual method rather than a psychomotor method.
18. f. Another consideration I need to take is her age. Since my
patient is an elder, the best teaching approach would be in
short sessions and making sure she is involved in
discussions. According to LeCroy (2009), “To decrease
frustration in the learning process, information should be
given in an easy-to-understand format since the learner’s
attention can wane after only 10 minutes” (p 155).
g. Next you have to consider their physical capability. This is
an obstacle for my patient because she is morbidly obese
and is limited in movement. So in order for her to learn, I
think it would be more beneficial to use a cognitive or
visual method rather than a psychomotor method.
19. h. Finally after all these components are evaluated
and you have taught your patient the material
needed, you must evaluate what they have
learned.
i. As stated by Hohler (2004), “To assess what your
patient has learned and determine whether he
needs more teaching, ask open-ended questions
or have him explain what he’s learned” (p.
32hn8). Then you can evaluate what the patient
absorbed and what needs more work.
