摘要:

The Cardiac Rehabilitation Home Program provides the structural framework for patient access to cardiac recovery in the home setting. Using an interdisciplinary team approach, the program standardizes patient education, establishes a personalized activity program, and provides psychosocial support to the patient and family during the recovery process. The Cardiac Rehabilitation Home Program reduces the cost of delivering healthcare to the cardiac population while improving customer satisfaction, strategically positioning home health agencies for managed care contracts.

摘要:

Studies of client satisfaction of the Traditional and Cluster Care service delivery models are virtually nonexistent. In an effort to provide healthcare services to Medicaid-eligible elderly home care clients, the New York City Human Resources Administration has implemented a new concept, Cluster Care. Because Cluster Care is probably going to be the wave of the 21st century, nurses need to be creative so that this new model will be more palatable to its recipients

摘要:

Individuals who did not participate in an organized cardiac rehabilitation program were interviewed to discover how they made lifestyle changes after a cardiac illness. The themes obtained from the analysis of the interview data were consistent with the components of Barrett's nursing theory of power as knowing participation in change. Implications for professional nursing practice related to the themes are described.

To keep pace with the rapid expansion and increasing complexity of home healthcare, training needs of home healthcare nurses must be identified and subsequent training programs implemented. In this study, training needs of home healthcare nurses were identified and prioritized by comparing their ratings of important content areas of home healthcare nursing with ratings of their competence in each of these areas. High importance ratings matched with low competence ratings determined training needs. It is concluded that these identified needs form the basis for the development of training programs for the continued professional development of home healthcare nurses.

摘要:

Home health clinical nurse specialists are camouflaged. The contributions that they make to the home health specialty are stymied and often are invisible to individuals outside of the specialty. Their role is less developed and is less implemented than in other nursing specialties. There are impediments to role development, including difficulties in defining the clinical base of the specialty, the independence and consultative nature of all home health nursing practice despite differences in educational backgrounds or levels of practice, and regulatory and reimbursement restrictions. Responsibilities and qualifications of the home health clinical nurse specialist are presented. The author suggests that these nurses review and sign Medicare Plan of Treatment insurance forms (instead of physicians), because most of home healthcare is nursing care dealing with functional abilities rather than medical care.
