2 Speaker Disclosure Statement No off-label use will be discussed. Michelle Camicia has no industry relationships to disclose. Michelle Camicia will not discuss offlabel use.
3 Learning Objectives 1. Demonstrate an understanding of the essential role of the rehabilitation nurse in care coordination 2. Identify ways to optimize the meaning of work as a rehabilitation nurse 3. Explore opportunities to expand the influence of the rehabilitation nurse
4 ARN Position Statement Rehabilitation Nursing: Is a specialty practice within the profession of nursing and involves the diagnosis and treatment for individuals and groups to actual and potential health problems related to altered functional ability and lifestyle Goal is to assist individuals with disability and/or chronic illness in restoring, maintaining and promoting maximal health
5 Current Issues Where is the value in rehabilitation nursing? How will we measure rehabilitation nursing value? What historical beliefs do we need to challenge? How will we determine what intensity of service results in the best value? 5
6 Where is the Value? In attempting to arrive at the truth, I have applied everywhere for information, but in scarcely an instance have I been able to obtain hospital records fit for any purposes of comparison. If they could be obtained, they would enable us to decide many other questions besides the one alluded to. They would show subscribers how their money was being spent, what amount of good was really being done with it, or whether the money was not doing mischief rather than good and, if wisely used, these improved statistics would tell us more of the relative value of particular operations and modes of treatment than we have any means of ascertaining at present. They would enable us, besides to ascertain the influence of the hospital with its numerous diseased inmates, its overcrowded and possibly ill-ventilated wards, its bad site, bad drainage, impure water, and want of cleanliness- or the reverse of all of these- upon the general course of operations and diseases passing through its wards; and the truth thus ascertained would enable us to save life and suffering, and to improve the treatment and management of the sick and maimed poor. Florence Nightingale (1863) 6

8 Significant Dates in ARN History 1974 The Association of Rehabilitation Nurses (ARN) was formed by Susan Novak with help from Lutheran General Hospital, located in Park Ridge, IL ARN was formally recognized as a specialty nursing organization by the American Nurses Association The ARN journal, originally established in 1975, was renamed Rehabilitation Nursing Rehabilitation Nursing: Concepts and Practice-A Core Curriculum first edition was published The Certified Rehabilitation Nurse (CRRN ) exam was first administered The Rehabilitation Nursing Institute, originally established in 1977, was restructured and renamed the Rehabilitation Nursing Foundation (RNF) The landmark study, Nurse Staffing and Patient Outcomes in Inpatient Rehabilitation Settings, was published in RNJ The ARN White Paper, The Essential Role of the Rehabilitation Nurse in Facilitating Care Transitions was published in Rehabilitation Nursing.

10 Overriding ARN Assertion Successful post-acute care (PAC) transitions for individuals with disabling conditions must be facilitated by nurses with rehabilitation nursing training, knowledge, and experience. (Camicia, et al., 2013)
11 ARN Statements ARN is committed to promoting the health and welfare of clients with disabilities. The rehabilitation nurse is integral in ensuring that THE PATIENT RECEIVES THE RIGHT CARE AT THE RIGHT TIME BY THE RIGHT PROVIDERS IN THE RIGHT SETTING.
12 Current PAC Care Transitions May be fragmented, disorganized, guided by factors unrelated to quality of care or patient outcomes Do not always promote utilization of clinicians skilled in advocating on behalf of the best interests of patients and their families Can be confusing for patients and families Failure to determine the appropriate site of care leads to higher hospital readmissions
13 PAC Team Members
14 Rehab Nursing Expertise Defined by a unique skill set Have knowledge and understanding to manage care of patients with acute or chronic disabling conditions Can lead teams to develop and implement patient-family-centered interventions Can assist in evaluating outcomes
15 Standards & Scope of Rehabilitation Nursing Practice Use the standards of rehabilitation nursing practice Modify assessment, management and patient education strategies Participate with patients and families in decision making Develop a transition plan with patient and family Maintain communication Standards and Scope of Rehabilitation Nursing Practice, 2008
16 Standards & Scope of Rehabilitation Nursing Practice Establish an effective relationship with patient and family Collect appropriate assessment data for each rehabilitation patient Coordinate and collaborate with the team Demonstrate knowledge of the impact of disability and chronic illness Employ clinical assessment skills Standards and Scope of Rehabilitation Nursing Practice, 2008
17 Standards & Scope of Rehabilitation Nursing Practice Apply research findings in practice decisions Educate patients, families, payors, healthcare providers and others Provide leadership for resource management, program and functional outcomes evaluation Standards and Scope of Rehabilitation Nursing Practice, 2008
18 Essential Roles of the Rehab Nurse 1. Caregiver, Expert Practitioner 2. Teacher 3. Coordinator of care 4. Collaborator, liaison 5. Counselor 6. Case manager 7. Researcher
19 But what did they do differently? In study of 54 U.S. rehabilitation facilities, Nelson, et al. (2007) found a 1% increase in the number of certified rehabilitation nurses was associated with reduced length of stay for patients.
20 Case Manager Role Defined as the process of assessing, planning, organizing, coordinating, implementing, monitoring and evaluating the services and resources needed to respond to an individual's healthcare needs ARN, 2012
21 Essential Role Components of Rehab Nursing Case Management Data collection and assessment Data analysis and formulation of nursing diagnosis Establishment of goals and plan of care Implementation of plan of care Collaboration Documentation Community reintegration Evaluation Quality Assurance (Role Descriptions: The Rehabilitation Case Manager, ARN, 2012)
22 ARN White Paper Recommendations 1. Practice 2. Policy 3. Research 4. Education
23 PRACTICE Care transitions for individuals with disabling conditions MUST be facilitated by nurses with rehabilitation nursing training, knowledge & experience. It MUST be the role of the rehabilitation nurse to educate & inform families on options and services available. The Rehab Nurse MUST use scientific evidence that can be summarized in a meaningful way so families can make informed decisions about care transitions.
24 POLICY Rehab nurses MUST be involved in national policy decisions to ensure that cost-efficient care is being delivered without compromising the quality of patient care in the U.S. Rehab nurses SHOULD be included on technical expert panels assessing concepts for future care coordination measure development (includes transitional care) to evaluate the quality of care coordination for those with a disability.
25 RESEARCH There MUST be more studies to evaluate the impact of rehab nurses on the healthcare delivery system. Federal agencies SHOULD fund research that supports comparisons of payments and quality models and evaluation of value-based payment models.
26 EDUCATION ARN s Standards and Scope of Rehabilitation Nursing Practice and this white paper SHOULD be foundational documents for discharge planning education related to care transitions for individuals with disabling conditions.
27 CONCLUSION The nurse who is dedicated to the care of the patient with a disability MUST possess: An adequate understanding of rehabilitation/restorative concepts. Knowledge of the multitude of resources that exist to help the patient and their family transition to the next level of care A belief that the utmost goal is the return of the individual with a disabling condition back to their home and community as a productive member of society.

33 The Fundamental Transformation of the Foundations of Nursing Practice Nurse leaders must now ask a different set of questions regarding the emerging character of the nurse s role in the coordination, integration, and facilitation of value-based care in an accountable care system. Nurses will accelerate in importance Will add considerable value in managing both the partnerships necessary to render truly accountable care Tim Porter-O Grady (2014)
