Maternal Child Nursing: Newborn Assessment

Maternal Child Nursing: Newborn Assessment
 
PURPOSE:
 
The following information is to be used in guiding your preparation and participation in the virtual simulation scenario for this course. This document will provide applicable course outcomes in preparation for your simulation.
 
SCENARIO OVERVIEW:
Newborn (Baby Moore) was born at 1330 to their mother (Angela Moore) and their father (William Moore). You are the nurse conducting the newborn assessment.
LEARNER OBJECTIVES:
1. Utilize clinical reasoning skills to perform a health history and physical assessment on a newborn client. (CO 2, 3, 6, 8)
 
2. Construct a plan of care based by prioritizing assessment findings and nursing diagnoses (CO 2, 3, 6, 8)
 
3. Evaluate patient outcomes to determine the effectiveness of nursing interventions and need for ongoing care (CO 2, 3, 6, 8)
 
4. Communicate and collaborate with the patient, family and interdisciplinary healthcare team members (CO 5, 6, 8)
 
STUDENT ROLES DURING SIMULATION:
 
You are the staff nurse at the hospital who will be conducting a comprehensive physical assessment, interpreting labs, and applying clinical judgment in your nursing plan of care. After completing your assessment, you are expected to document your findings as a Nurse’s Note in SBAR format.
 
KEY FEATURES OF i-HUMAN PATIENTS®:
 
· As the nurse, you are expected to complete the case scenario using the following tabs: EHR, History, Physical, Analyze, Actions, Nursing Notes, Summary
 
· There are required questions and/or additional information provided related to this case. The questions, information, and videos must be completed/reviewed prior to progressing to the next tab.
 
· Nursing Notes: At the end of the simulation, you will document your assessment findings using ISBAR.
 
CONFIDENTIALITY:
 
To preserve the educational value, integrity, and safety of the learning environment, you agree to maintain strict confidentiality about the proceedings of the simulation session, details of the training scenarios, and the performance of all participants. You acknowledge that this expectation aligns with the guidelines related to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) as well as laws governing Protected Health Information (PHI) in client care environments.  You will not view, discuss, share, record, or disclose any confidential information pertaining to the session. You understand that lapses in confidentiality are considered academic misconduct and could result in dismissal from the academic program. 
 
 
 
FICTION AGREEMENT:
 
You will suspend judgment of realism for any given simulation in exchange for the promise of learning new knowledge and skills. This process will require you to treat the simulated patient as a real patient with a genuine desire to learn, even when it may be difficult to do so.  
 
DUE DATE:
 
The virtual simulation must be completed during Week 6.
 
SIMULATION TIMING:
· Pre-brief: 30 minutes
 
· Run Time: 2.5 hours
 
· Debriefing: 60 minutes
 
ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION
Faculty will utilize your participation measurements in the i-Human Patients® case, and debriefing discussions to identify areas of opportunity for enhancement of your clinical growth. Your experiences in i-Human Patients® will contribute to your overall completion of clinical requirements for the course as documented on the Clinical Learning Evaluation tool.

REVIEW AND COMPLETE PRIOR TO THE START OF THE VIRTUAL SIMULATION:
In order to prepare for the simulation, you are required to complete the pre-simulation questions below and submit this prework to the faculty by uploading your responses in Canvas prior to the start of the virtual simulation. If you do not complete the pre-simulation questions and upload them, you will not be able to access or participate in the simulation.
 
1. Describe the assessment components and key considerations when conducting an APGAR assessment. What interventions are required for a score of:
 
a. Score 0-2
 
b. Score 3-6
 
c. Score 7-10
 
2. What assessment components are essential to include when performing a thorough admission assessment of a newborn?
 
3. List strategies that a nurse can implement immediately after birth to promote bonding and attachment.
 
4. Create an educational plan for newborn care and breastfeeding.
 
COMPLETE AFTER THE VIRTUAL SIMULATION:
To finalize your clinical learning experience, you will need to complete the following steps:
 
· Immediately following the completion of the virtual simulation, you will complete the evaluation of the simulation using the survey link provided.
 
· After completing the i-Human Patients® case, you will need to download the i-Human Patients® PDF Performance Evaluation and upload it to the Weekly Clinical Learning Assignment in the week the case is assigned.
 
· Document your clinical learning experience after completion, you are required to document on a Clinical Learning Evaluation (CLE), your performance rating and the specific simulation performed within the formative comments.
