Definition: Patient-Centered Care
Definition Patient-centered care (patient centred care): “Is a model in which providers partner with families to identify and satisfy the full range of patient needs and preferences.”
To expand this definition, patient-centered care is dependent on the involvement of the staff and care team as well.
“To succeed, a patient-centered approach must also address the staff experience as staff’s ability and inclination to effectively care for patients is unquestionably compromised if they do not feel care for themselves" (Picker Institute).
Researchers from Harvard Medical School, on behalf of Picker Institute and The Commonwealth Fund, defined seven primary dimensions of patient-centered care model.
These factors are identified as:
Respect for patients’ values, preferences and expressed needs
Coordination and integration of care
Information, communication and education
Physical comfort
Emotional support and alleviation of fear and anxiety
Involvement of family and friends
Transition and continuity

Data collection
Data collection is the process of gathering information about a client’s health status. It includes the health history, physical examination, results of laboratory and diagnostic tests, and material contributed by other health personnel.
Types of data collection
Two types:
subjective data and
objective data.
1. Subjective data, also referred to as symptoms or covert data, are clear only to the person affected and can be described only by that person. Itching, pain, and feelings of worry are examples of subjective data.
Conti….
2. Objective data, also referred to as signs or overt data, are detectable by an observer or can be measured or tested against an accepted standard. They can be seen, heard, felt, or smelled, and they are obtained by observation or physical examination. For example, a discoloration of the skin or a blood pressure reading is objective data
Sources of data collection
Sources of data are primary or secondary.
Primary : It is the direct source of information. The client is the primary source of data.
Secondary: It is the indirect source of information. All sources other than the client are considered secondary sources. Family members, health professionals, records and reports, laboratory and diagnostic results are secondary sources.
Methods of data collection

Observation includes looking, watching, examining. Observation begins the moment the nurse meets the client. It is a conscious, deliberate skill that is developed through efforts and with an organized approach.
Observation has two aspects:
Noticing the data and
Selecting, organizing, and interpreting the data.

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.

PATIENT ASSIGNMENTS AND NURSING CARE RESPONSIBILITIES.pptxPRADEEP ABOTHU
Patient Assignments and Nursing Care Responsibilities
Functional Nursing:
Functional nursing is a care delivery model in which nursing tasks are divided among team members based on their specific skills and expertise. In this model, each member of the nursing team is assigned specific functions to perform for a group of patients. For instance, one nurse may be responsible for administering medications, while another nurse may focus on vital sign monitoring. This approach aims to promote efficiency by utilizing the specialized skills of each team member. However, it can also result in fragmented care and reduced continuity as different nurses handle different aspects of patient care.
Team Nursing:
Team nursing is a collaborative care delivery model that involves a team of healthcare professionals working together to provide comprehensive care to a group of patients. The team typically includes registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nursing assistants, among others. A registered nurse usually leads the team and coordinates care, delegating tasks to team members based on their abilities and scope of practice. This model encourages teamwork, shared decision-making, and a holistic approach to patient care. By leveraging the collective skills and knowledge of the team, team nursing aims to provide high-quality care while maintaining efficiency.
Primary Nursing:
Primary nursing is a patient-centered care delivery model in which a registered nurse takes full responsibility for coordinating and providing care to a specific group of patients. The primary nurse develops a therapeutic relationship with the patients, assesses their needs, creates individualized care plans, and provides direct care throughout their healthcare journey. This model emphasizes continuity of care and places a strong emphasis on the nurse-patient relationship. By having a dedicated primary nurse, patients benefit from personalized attention, improved communication, and a sense of continuity in their care.
Case Management:
Case management is a care delivery model that focuses on coordinating healthcare services for patients with complex medical conditions or multiple healthcare needs. A case manager, often a registered nurse, plays a key role in this model by working closely with the patient, their family, and other healthcare professionals to ensure seamless transitions between healthcare settings and to optimize resource utilization. The case manager assesses the patient's needs, develops and implements care plans, advocates for the patient, coordinates appointments and services, and collaborates with various healthcare providers. The goal is to provide comprehensive and efficient care while maximizing patient outcomes and resource allocation.
Each of these care delivery models has its own strengths and weaknesses, and the choice of model depends on factors such as the healthcare setting, patient population, and available resources.
