Designed Nursing Case:
Instruction through the Electronically-mediated approach would ultimately segue into graduating involvement with real case management scenarios. The practical design of this aspect of the curriculum will revolve on breast cancer, which is useful for our purposes both because of its commonality and its high survival rate with early detection and properly stewarded treatment. Therefore, nurses undergoing the curriculum would follow up the GEM driven instruction period with engagement of several written case scenarios. Said scenarios would describe subjects undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer treatment with differentials including age, additional health considerations, family circumstances, socioeconomic context and a host of other circumstances which might impact treatment. Nurses will be asked to compose treatment strategies centered on the biopsychosocial realities of the respective case scenarios. This will include description of engagement of family members and patients. The primary concept at play in these case scenarios will be treatment and consultation under the biopsychosocial umbrella.
The concept activities driving the treatment approach will be 1) medically-driven procedures and 2) long-term self-care consultation. The first of these concept activities denotes the administration of chemotherapy and treatment of its side effects with proper bedside manner, effective communication to the patient's support system, provision of thorough information preparing the patient for the experience and compassionate responsiveness to the rigors of the treatment both physically and emotionally. The second of these concept activities refers to the consultation necessarily to facilitate the transition from inpatient care to home self-care. Nursing procedure and orientation should be directed toward providing the patient and family with lifestyle-driven ways of coping with treatment and reducing the risk of recurrence. To the point, "as more individuals diagnosed with breast cancer are surviving for extended periods of time, oncology nurses are providing long-term follow-up care. Part of the care should include proper screening and patient education for healthier recovery and prevention of further healthcare complications as a result of cancer treatment." (Limburg, 55) This is especially a point of focus given the rigors of standard chemotherapy treatment procedures and the various lifestyle adjustments that may be necessary to cope with these rigors.

They concluded that the health care decision makers when using Gershon safety tools, which appear to have sufficient reliability
Analysis of Quality Improvement in Healthcare-Patient AdvocacyProblem Area and Current ProcessThe quality improvement project I am planning to implement will focus on patient advocacy.
