Ayala Discharge Planning Checklist Discharging a patient from a hospital setting should be very easy‚ according to all of the patients that are in the hospital and don’t care about anything at the moment except getting home. While the patient is inpatient there are many things that could go wrong‚ however in house the patient is being controlled and managed. When a patient goes home there are no monitors or hourly blood draws to ensure their safety and survival. Discharge planning is not easy

The purpose of this paper is to analyze my own experience and the research I found regarding discharge planning. Discharge planning consists of an array of assessments and teachings as the patient moves from one facility (hospital) to another (home‚ nursing home‚ etc.). Essentially‚ this is significant in preventing a patient from re-hospitalization. In regards to my patient‚ she received an assessment and teachings concerning her mental status‚ mobility‚ previous surgery‚ current medications‚ and

nursing care. Discharge planning can be defined as the assessment of inpatients medical conditions for the purpose of arranging appropriate care upon leaving the facility‚ within this planning it includes how long the patient will be in the hospital‚ the expected outcomes and whether there are special needs or requirements on discharge Watts and Garner‚ (2005). According to Goodman‚ (2010) a recent audit has identified that 16% of patients did not feel involved in their discharge arrangements. Rose

ELECTRIC DISCHARGE MACHINING INTRODUCTION * Sometimes it is referred to as spark machining‚ * Its a manufacturing process whereby a desired shape is obtained using electrical discharges (sparks). * Material is removed from the workpiece by a series of rapidly recurring current discharges between two electrodes‚ separated by a dielectric liquid and subject to an electric voltage. * One of the electrodes – ‘tool-electrode’ or ‘tool’ or ‘electrode’. * Other electrode - workpiece-electrode

Discharge Plannin Discharge planning is a process that aims to improve the coordination of services after discharge from hospital by considering the patient’s needs in the community. It seeks to bridge the gap between hospital and the place to which the patient is discharged‚ reduce length of stay in hospital‚ and minimise unplanned readmission to hospital.1 Discharge planning is an established part of hospital care‚ but the process varies and is not entirely evidenced based.

Electro Discharge Machine and how it functions and what is needed to make it function Electro Discharge Machining (EDM) is a process‚ where we use the electrical energy to produce electrical waves and thermal energy to mould any alloy into a desired shape/size. This machining method can only be used with materials that conduct electrical energy well. EDM is so powerful that it can cut through into hard steel without the need to soften it. This method is not only used to shape steel but it

Introduction Research has indicated that effective discharge planning reduces patient readmission to hospital. By critically analysing the practice of discharge planning from the acute care sector‚ the factors which contribute to effective discharge planning can be identified. Furthermore‚ by employing these key factors‚ an evidence based discharge plan can be produced for a person suffering the effects of drug and/or alcohol abuse. For many patients‚ getting ready to leave the hospital is one

Background Failure to safely and appropriately discharge patients from the hospital is placing patients at risk‚ not to mention the increase costs to hospitals‚ providers‚ and insurers. Many acknowledge that the hospital discharge is non-standardized‚ unsystematic‚ and fragmented process (Anthony‚ Chetty‚ Kartha‚ McKenna‚ DePaoli‚ & Jack‚ 2005; Minott‚ 2008). Furthermore‚ the inefficiencies in the discharge planning process have also shown to have life-threatening implications‚ especially in association

There were areas where care could have been provided to meet the needs of the couple as a whole and the caregiver as the primary person taking care of the patient. The couple needed to be addressed about discharge planning from admission so that they would have more time to prepare for the transition. This would have provided them with more time to digest and accept their circumstances‚ allow time for all the questions to be thought of and asked‚ and to gather all the available resource and information
