  • Nurse Educator Vol
    Nurse Educator Vol. 43, No. 2 Nurse Educator Copyright * 2018 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved. A Tool to Guide Students in Identifying Problem Concepts, Assessment, and Diagnosis Beginning nursing students often struggle to identify patient problems based on their assessments that link a North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA) label to them. To help students, we developed a list of common problem concepts, such as oxygenation, perfusion, and fluid/electrolytes, and paired them with appropriate assessment and NANDA labels that fit the problem concept. This tool is named the Problem Concept/Assessment/Diagnosis (PCAD) tool (see Table, Supplemental Digital Content 1, http://links.lww.com/NE/A417). While using the nursing process and completing head-to-toe assessments, students are able to utilize the tool to identify which concept is a problem for patients and quickly identify missing assessment data. The PCAD then assists students to identify appropriate NANDA labels correlated to assessment data and the patient’s priority problems. The tool is also helpful for clinical instructors, especially those who are new to teaching. Clinical instructors are able to use the tool to guide students in prioritizing problems, encourage the student to do a more thorough assessment, and link NANDA labels that fit the patient’s condition. The PCAD also reminds new clinical instructors of how novice nursing students work through the nursing process and make early clinical judgements.

Crawley, MBA, BSN, RNC-OB, NEA-BC & P. Kuchta, MBA, BSN, RNC-TNP 2011-2012 AAACN TNP SIG Co-Chairs Telehealth is the delivery, management, and coordination of health services that integrate electronic information and telecommunications technologies to increase access, improve outcomes, and contain or reduce costs of health care. Telehealth is an umbrella term used to describe the wide range of services delivered across distances by all health-related disciplines (AAACN, 2011). Telehealth Nursing Practice is the delivery, management, and coordination of care and services provided via telecommunications technology within the domain of ambulatory care nursing. Telehealth nursing is a broad term encompassing practices that incorporate a vast array of telecommunications technologies (e.g., telephone, fax, email, Internet, video monitoring, and interactive videos) to remove time and distance barriers for the delivery of nursing care (Espensen, 2009). Telehealth Nursing Practice (TNP) is recognized as a nursing subspecialty of ambulatory care nursing by the American Academy of Ambulatory Care Nursing (AAACN). AAACN has worked to formalize the practice of Telehealth Nursing by developing a Telehealth Nursing Practice Core Course (TNPCC), the Scope and Standards of Practice for Professional Telehealth Nursing , the Telehealth Nursing Practice Essentials (TNPE) textbook, competencies, and included a chapter on Telehealth Nursing Practice in the C ore Curriculum for Ambulatory Care Nursing . AAACN also offers a TNP track at their annual conference and includes many Telehealth articles in ViewPoint , AAACN’s bi-monthly newsletter.
