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.
2
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.

Nursing students will:
Define and explain the importance of the nursing process.
Discuss the components of nursing process.
Analyze critical thinking in nursing practice's
Implement the nursing process to a patient
care assignment.
Demonstrate the use of critical thinking to prior-
itize for a client assignment.
Program Objectives

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

11. Pin pointing needs
The needs can be identified by means of
Survey
Observation of Work Performance
interview
In our in-service programed we have used survey
method for finding needs. We have given five
topics to 20 staff nurses of Emergency and
Trauma Centre
12. The Topics were
NABH Protocol
Shock
Care of unconscious patient
Soft Skills
Triage
13. we have receive 50% response for Triage,
20% for Shock and 15% for NABH
Protocol and 15% for other topics
Thus we have planned the In-service
education programme on TRIAGE for 30
staffs as per their needs
14. At the end of this In-service education
programme the group will be able to have
knowledge about Triage
15. At the end of this In-service education
programme the group will be able to

16. Specify content/ topic and learning experience
Teaching learning method and media
Developing evaluation criteria
17. The sequence of topics proceeds from general
to specific and from simple to complex,
continuity is another factor to make the
programme effective
To plan and design sessions usually
we use four steps procedure
• Divide the session content into (a) must
know (b) should know (c) could know
• Arrange the content in logical order
• Select training techniques
• Estimate segment times
SPECIFY CONTENT/TOPIC &
LEARNING EXPERIENCES
18. Methods and media of teaching learning
activates are simple ways to provide
learning experiences.
The selected method should be
1. Effective

DEFINITION OF TRIAGE
APPLICATION OF TRIAGE
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF TRIAGE
TYPES OF TRIAGE
TRIAGE CODING
START
NURSES ROLE IN TRIAGE
BENEFITS OF TRIAGE
45. DEFINITION
The term Triage derived from the French verb
‘trier’ meaning to “sort or to choose”
It’s the process by which patients classified
according to the types and urgency of their
conditions to get the
Right patient to the
Right place at the
Right time with the
Right care provider
56. TYPES OF TRIAGE
1. Simple Triage
2. Advance Triage
3. Continuous Integrated Triage
4. Reverse Triage
5. Under Triage and Over Triage
57. SIMPLE TRIAGE
Simple triage is usually used in a scene of an
accident or "mass-casualty incident" (MCI), in
order to sort patients into those who need
critical attention and immediate transport to the
hospital and those with less serious injuries.
This step can be started before transportation
becomes available
58. ADVANCE TRIAGE
In advanced triage, doctors and specially
trained nurses may decide that some seriously
injured people should not receive advanced
care because they are unlikely to survive. It is
used to divert scarce resources away from
patients with little chance of survival in order
to increase the chances for others with higher
likelihoods.
59. CONTINUOUS INTEGRATED
TRIAGE
Continuous integrated triage is an approach to
triage in mass casualty situations which is both
efficient and sensitive to
psychosocial and disaster behavioral health
issues that affect the number of patients seeking
care (surge), the manner in which a hospital or
healthcare facility deals with that surge (surge
capacity) and the overarching medical needs of
the event.
60. REVERSE TRIAGE
Usually, triage refers to prioritizing admission. A similar
process can be applied to discharging patients early when
the medical system is stressed. This process has been called
"reverse triage". During a "surge" in demand, such as
immediately after a natural disaster, many hospital beds
will be occupied by regular non-critical patients. In order
to accommodate a greater number of the new critical
patients, the existing patients may be triaged, and those
who will not need immediate care can be discharged until
the surge has dissipated, for example through the
establishment of temporary medical facilities in the region.
61. UNDERTRIAGE AND
OVERTRIAGE
Undertriage is the underestimating
the severity of an illness or injury. An
example of this would be categorizing a
Priority 1 (Immediate) patient as a
Priority 2 (Delayed) or Priority 3
(Minimal). Historically, acceptable
undertriage rates have been deemed
5% or less.
62. Overtriage is the overestimating of
the severity of an illness or injury. An
example of this would be categorizing a
Priority 3 (Minimal) patient as a Priority
2 (Delayed) or Priority 1 (Immediate).
Acceptable overtriage rates have been
typically up to 50% in an effort to avoid
undertriage. Some studies suggest that
overtriage is less likely to occur when
triaging is performed by hospital
medical teams, rather than paramedics
or EMT
63. Triage Priorities
