摘要:

Culturally competent care adapts care to the patient’s cultural needs and preferences and begins with a cultural assessment that forms the care plan’s foundation. Nurses who assess their patients’ cultural beliefs, values, and practices are better able to individualize care and achieve positive outcomes. This article describes a cultural assessment tool, strategies for obtaining cultural assessment data, and a process for creating a culturally appropriate care plan.

摘要:

OASIS-derived outcome reports first became available to home care agencies in February 2002 and depicted the agency’s current (observed) outcome achievement rate as compared to a reference (predicted) rate on 41 separate outcomes. New three-bar reports are now available that allow agencies to evaluate their current outcome rates against their previous year’s rates and a reference rate. This article compares the newly-available three-bar reports with the prior two-bar reports, including information provided in those reports in the OBQI process.

摘要:

A new tool is available for agencies to use with their patient tally reports derived from OASIS data. By using queries submitted to the outcome and case mix tally reports, agencies can select a group of care episodes for follow-up in the process-of-care investigation portion of their outcome enhancement activities. An example of how an agency used the tool to select care episodes for review is provided.
