Study Notes
Overview of Education in Health Care
- The focus is on outcomes, whether it be that the patient and their family have learned essential knowledge and skills for independent care or that staff nurses and nursing students have acquired up-to-date knowledge and skills needed to competently render care.
- Nurses must have a basic prerequisite understanding of the principles, practice, and process of teaching and learning to carry out their professional responsibilities with efficiency and effectiveness.
Historical Foundations for the Teaching Role of Nurses
- Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing, was the ultimate educator and developed the first school of nursing.
- For decades, patient teaching has been recognized as an independent nursing function, and nurses have expanded their practice to include the broader concepts of health and illness.
- The National League for Nursing Education (NLNE) recognized the responsibility of nurses for the promotion of health and the prevention of illness in various settings.
Comparison of the Education Process and the Nursing Process
- The education process and the nursing process run parallel to each other, although they have different goals and objectives.
- The nursing process focuses on the planning and implementation of care based on the assessment and diagnosis of the physical and psychosocial needs of the patient.
- The education process identifies instructional content and methods based on an assessment and prioritization of the client's learning needs, readiness to learn, and learning styles.
Teaching and Learning
- Teaching is a deliberate intervention that involves the planning and implementation of instructional activities and experiences to meet intended learner outcomes according to a teaching plan.
- Instruction is one aspect of teaching, and it involves the use of various teaching strategies and materials.
- Learning is a process that involves the acquisition of knowledge, attitudes, and skills.
Barriers to Education and Obstacles to Learning
- Barriers to education are those factors that impede the nurse's ability to deliver educational services.
- Obstacles to learning can include factors such as the learner's readiness to learn, learning style, and prior knowledge.
Skin Structure and Function
- The skin is classified as thick or thin based on the structure of the epidermis.
- Thick skin is found in areas subject to pressure or friction, while thin skin covers the rest of the body and is more flexible.
- The skin's color is determined by pigments, blood circulating through the skin, and the thickness of the stratum corneum.
Hair and Glands
- Hair color is controlled by several genes, and dark hair color is not necessarily dominant over light.
- Associated with each hair follicle are smooth muscle cells called the arrector pili.
- Sebaceous glands produce sebum and are connected to the upper part of the hair follicles, preventing skin drying and protecting against some bacteria.
- Sweat glands are either eccrine or apocrine, with eccrine glands opening directly onto the skin surface and apocrine glands opening into hair follicles.
Leukocytes
- Granulocytes contain specific granules and include neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils.
- Agranulocytes have no specific granules and include monocytes and lymphocytes.
- Neutrophils are the most common type of granulocyte and are phagocytes.
Platelets
- Platelets are minute fragments of cells that are produced in the red bone marrow from large cells called megakaryocytes.
- Platelets play an important role in preventing blood loss by forming platelet plugs and vascular spasm.
