Psychomotor:The student will demonstrate proper procedure for preparing simulated medications.The student will demonstrate proper procedure for administration of oral medications.2. Cognitive:The student applies the concept of the 6 rights of medication administration to a simulated pt med pass.Fidelity (choose all that apply to this simulation)Setting/Environment:X Med-Surg UnitX Other: HospitalSimulator Manikin/s Needed: Virtual Simulation: Second Life Computers/laptops Headsets w/ microphonesProps: Virtual props: Bedside equipment: BP cuff, stethoscope, thermometer, walker, Incentive spirometerEquipment attached to manikin/virtual:XID band XOther: Allergy bandEquipment available in room/virtual:XIncentive SpirometerMedications and Fluids: N/ADiagnostics Available:X Labs: BS, PBCDocumentation Forms: X Physician OrdersX Flow sheetX Medication Administration RecordX KardexX Graphic RecordX Shift AssessmentX Code RecordX Anesthesia / PACU RecordX Other: Discharge ordersRecommended Mode for Simulation (i.e. manual, programmed, etc.)Synchronous Learning activity-Role assignments: Med/surgical nurse/student #1 Patient/Facilitator Nursing assistant/student #2 Instructor- observer clinical group- simulation performed in pairs Roles/Guidelines for Roles:X Primary NurseX Clinical Instructor/observerX Family Member #1X Observer/s (clinical instructor)X RecorderX Unlicensed Assistive Personnel/Nursing Assistant X Other: Patient/facilitator Important Information Related to Roles:Patient role- scripted responses for facilitator at times.Medication distractions- Pt. facilitator- scripted with distraction of request for BR, refusal of a med, & request for prn pain meds after regular med pass.Nursing assistant- scripted with distraction of family questions about meds during med pass & giving message of TC from ER for reportSignificant Lab Values:Glucose: 110PBC: WBC 8,000 H/H: 9.9/32Physician Orders:BRP w/ assistance w/ walker; 1800 cal ADA dietMedications:Persan 75mg po daily; Mylanta 10ml po qd, Lanoxin 0.125mg; PRN: Vicodin 1-2 tabs po q 4hrs.; pericolace prnAssessment data:BP: 122/78 HR: 92 RR: 18 Temp: 98.8Pain Score: 6 (0-10 scale)Student Information Needed Prior to Scenario:XHas been oriented to simulator/virtual environment XUnderstands guidelines /expectations for scenarioXHas accomplished all pre-simulation requirementsXAll participants understand their assigned rolesXOther: Testing of technology equipment/headphones w/ mic & computer connections for virtual environmentReport Students Will Receive Before Simulation:Time: 0745 post AM shift report.The scenario begins after the day shift report. During report, you are notified that you will receive an ER admission, too. Mr. Patterson is a 68 year old male who was admitted for a LTKA with PMH of chronic a-fib, gastric reflux, NIDDM. He is two days post op, and will be discharged home today with his wife. You have completed his assessment, and it is time to pass medications to Mr. Patterson, one of three patients you are currently assigned to today.References, Evidence-Based Practice Guidelines, Protocols, or Algorithms Used For This Scenario (site source, author, year, and page): AACN (American Association of College of Nursing).
