Pregunta Respuesta
What can nurses do for young people in their care? Work in partnership Involve family where appropriate Advocate Empower - acknowledge them
Why does the way we treat our young patients change so frequently? Children grow up faster and have a better understanding in a short period of time. A 15 year old will understand things differently as a 12yo or an adult.
What important factors impinge on the way we treat our patients? We treat the entire family, from recognising they have trouble with travelling, or a damp, mouldy house and put them in touch with the appropriate services.
How does politics affect care? Pressure to cut costs We in turn put pressure on the family to learn to care for their child Culture of blame and HEALTHCARE CLIMATE OF LITIGATION!
How can we provide good quality care? Empower the child to do things themselves, and don't rush them. Let them learn at their own pace. KEEP GOOD RECORDS - document any referrals made, not that you've just discharged.
What challenges to children face during the transition? Adult wards are scary - new people, not as friendly, busier, noisier. No respite in adult hospices - crisis management only.
List the 4 aspects of family centred care Empowerment Partnership - delegate to family safely Negotiation - constantly changing goal of care Advocacy
