Response TO WEEK 8 DISC 2

PLEASE RESPOND TO THE FOLLOWING IN 50 WORDS OR MORE:

Since Week 1, I have learned a lot. My perspective on the concepts of trends in nursing has changed to say the least. This class has helped me build and evolve the way of thinking that nurses have to deal with low pay, lateral violence, long hours, not being heard etc, just because it’s part of our job. There are ways for us to use our voice and join different groups to help us be heard in the healthcare field. Discussion 6 I thought was especially important because it shows different ways for nurses to get involve and advocate for nurses. Trends and issues in nursing is something we can overcome with time and effort. Providing the right care and education in all aspects of nursing will help change the view people have of nursing and the believe that nursing is a just a job and not a profession.

The main goal of having an EHR is to improve the quality and safety of patient care (Hebda et al. 2018). More hospitals are turning to EHRs because it's a smoother flow of care and recording without compromising patient privacy. Other benefits include: “improving the accuracy and completeness of patient health information; increasing the speed at which care is provided; enhancing the coordination of care; and increasing transparency of health information for patients and their families, flag potentially dangerous drug interactions, verify medications, and reduce the needs for risky tests and procedures (Hebda et al. 2018).” In this scenario, the patient's PHR is limited because tests were outsourced versus being conducted all at the same facility. This can make patients question their diagnosis especially if they don't have all the information available to them. PHRs allow patients to be involved in the healthcare, however for some it may not be entirely user friendly which can hinder their understanding of the medical care. Additionally, not all patients have the level of technology available to them, whether it be a smartphone, laptop, or tablet, and therefore have limited access to their records. It has definitely been a major step forward in the medical field, and there is always room for improvements. Patients also need to understand the risks of safeguarding their personal information and how to protect their records from being accessed by non approved personnel. Both systems do provide results in real time and therefore both patient and provider can access and discuss already performed tests as well as prepare for future testing, thus ensuring they are both in line with the same goals. To ensure PHR protection, the user creates their own login and password. They are then responsible for keeping both of those safe. 

I am glad that patients have access to a PHR. I think it's helps provide understanding to their care and allows them to research and identify questions concerning their medical treatments. We oftentimes find that patients can be a little too research happy and find the 1% side affect that they are afraid might happen to them, and can cause a pause in their treatment. I do enjoy being able to discuss with my patients their results and answer questions on a nursing level, but most of the questions are referenced towards the provider. In this case, I feel like the patient could be frustrated because they don't have access to all the information, but that doesn't mean it's not attainable, just a little more difficult and a little more time consuming to put it all together.

Title: Influencing Healthcare Through Advocacy: A Personal Journey and how to 

create effective interdisciplinary organizational and systems leadership in the care of clients in diverse care settings.

Introduction

Learning the ropes of policy, politics, and advocacy is a transformative endeavor with the ultimate goal of influencing healthcare and broader social agendas that profoundly impact human health. In this discussion, I become an advocate to effect change in healthcare, reflecting the purpose of mastering these skills.

Advocacy for Universal Healthcare Access

My journey into healthcare advocacy began when I witnessed the struggles of a close friend, Emily, who was burdened by exorbitant medical bills due to a chronic illness. Fueled by empathy and a desire for equitable healthcare, I embarked on a path to advocate for universal healthcare access.

            1.         Policy Analysis and Research: I started by immersing myself in healthcare policy analysis and research (Smith et al., 2018). This included studying existing healthcare systems worldwide to understand their strengths and weaknesses. Through this, I gained the knowledge needed to advocate for an inclusive healthcare system.

            2.         Community Engagement: Recognizing that community support is crucial for advocacy, I organized town hall meetings, awareness campaigns, and grassroots movements to engage citizens in discussions about healthcare access (Gitterman, 2017). By fostering a sense of shared responsibility, we encouraged individuals to join the cause.

            3.         Legislative Advocacy: I proactively engaged with lawmakers, presenting data and personal stories to advocate for policy changes aimed at expanding healthcare access. Collaborating with like-minded organizations and lobbying for healthcare reform became integral to my advocacy efforts (Berkowitz & Wolff, 2020).

            4.         Patient-Centered Advocacy: To amplify the voices of patients like Emily, I encouraged them to share their experiences and struggles. These personal stories resonated with policymakers and underscored the urgent need for healthcare reform (Travis, 2019).

            5.         Building Coalitions: Recognizing the power of partnerships, I formed coalitions with healthcare professionals, advocacy groups, and community leaders. These alliances strengthened our advocacy efforts and allowed us to pool resources and expertise (Berkowitz & Wolff, 2020).

Conclusion

My journey in healthcare advocacy reflects the purpose of mastering policy, politics, and advocacy skills – to influence healthcare and broader social agendas. Through policy analysis, community engagement, legislative advocacy, patient-centered efforts, and strategic partnerships, I worked towards the vision of universal healthcare access.  This it highlights the profound impact advocacy can have in shaping the future of healthcare and improving human health on a broader scale.

2. I have learned to value the crucial part that politics, lobbying, and policy play in determining the healthcare landscape throughout my work as a nurse. One specific instance stands out as proof of the effectiveness of advocacy in changing health care and more general societal goals.

I recently came across a critical problem involving patient safety and drug delivery while working as a clinical nurse in a big urban hospital. It became clear that our current system had a history of mistakes, especially when it came to high-risk drugs. This finding is confirmed by Pozzi’s (2023) study. Concerns over near-miss occurrences and sporadic medication mistakes had been raised among the nursing team, and it was obvious that something needed to be done to safeguard the safety of our patients.

Seeing the gravity of the situation, I started an advocacy journey to deal with it. The first step was acquiring information and proof to support my claims. I carefully recorded incidences and reviewed the available research on the best medication administration methods. I used this knowledge to report my findings to the hospital’s quality improvement committee.

Gaining support for the suggested improvements required active participation from stakeholders, as evidenced in the study by Beaudry et al. (2019). I formed a multidisciplinary task force with other nurses, pharmacists, and doctors to enhance pharmaceutical safety. We held regular meetings to discuss solutions, examine policies, and implement actual initiatives.

The adoption of a barcode scanning technology for medicine administration was one of the main campaign initiatives. I thought this technology had a lot of promise for our hospital because it had successfully reduced prescription errors in other healthcare settings. I did a ton of study on the advantages and affordability of this approach, and I made a strong argument to hospital executives.

The practice of advocacy went beyond hospital boundaries. I spoke with representatives from pharmaceutical companies, went to patient safety seminars, and connected with industry experts. I was able to present creative solutions by keeping up with developments in medicine administration technologies and best practices.

I worked with the hospital’s nursing leadership to write a policy proposal describing the implementation strategy for the barcode scanning technology as the advocacy efforts picked up steam. This comprised a thorough rollout schedule, workflow modifications, and employee training. I made sure that frontline nurses’ involvement was included in the policy because their viewpoints were crucial for forming its actual implementation.

The conclusion of these campaign efforts was the effective introduction of barcode scanning technology for drug administration. The new approach greatly decreased prescription errors and near-miss instances, improving patient safety and boosting nursing staff trust.

This example demonstrated the significant influence lobbying may have on medical outcomes. I was able to have an impact on an important component of patient care by identifying a problem, obtaining data, enlisting stakeholders, and promoting creative solutions. It strengthened my resolve to be a proactive advocate for the welfare of my patients and the larger community, and it confirmed my belief in the ability of advocacy to bring about constructive change in the healthcare industry.
