COURSE OUTLINE This section comes from the curriculum guide (May 2004). 2 of 17 The focus of this course is on people s experience with healing, with particular reference to simple episodic health challenges. Participants integrate theory and concepts of health as they relate to healing. Participants develop a repertoire of nursing practice skills, including critical thinking, decision making for nursing practice, interpersonal, organizational and psychomotor skills to promote healing. PROCESS This section comes from the curriculum guide (May 2004). Nursing 2250 is a weekly 3-hour nursing course. It is delivered as a three hour face-to-face class. Classes consist of a variety of methods including but not limited to short lectures, presentations, discussions, individual work, and small and large group work. Guest speakers may be invited to some classes. CLASS OR CLINICAL PRACTICE CANCELLATION The nursing department makes every effort to replace a nurse educator when he or she is unable to attend a class or clinical practice. If a nurse educator needs to cancel a class or a clinical practice day, for whatever the reason, information regarding the class cancellation will be posted on MyLangara site as well as at the Registrar's Office (B-Building). As for the cancellation of clinical practice, individual nurse educators will inform his or her students of how cancellation will be conveyed during orientation week. It is important then to log on to Blackboard the day of class and of clinical practice. LEARNING OUTCOMES Students have the opportunity to: Explore the personal meaning of an episodic health challenge and treatment modalities with a family experiencing an episodic health challenge. Develop an awareness of the personal meaning of the hospital experience from the perspective of the family. Explore how the selected concept, transition, relates to the individual s/family s experience. Compare your family s experience of transition with that described in the literature relating to transition. Reflect on what has been learned when writing this paper and how it will influence your future practice. OVERVIEW OF CONCEPTS e Lucille Aunger, 201020. Revised, 201020

ASSIGNMENTS Appendix 1 Episodic Health Challenge Family Paper Assignment 7 of 17 Throughout your nursing program, you have learned about health and health challenges from the perspective of the individual and family. Important resources have been your resource family in Term I, and in Term II, your chronic health challenge family. In Term III, as you learn about episodic health challenges, you will meet with another family, one who is experiencing an episodic challenge. This family will become your Episodic Family. You will be meeting with the family, perhaps while you are caring for the client. You may consider making arrangements to meet with the individual family on the ward after your shift or in the evening. LEARNING OUTCOMES Explore the personal meaning of an episodic health challenge and treatment modalities with a family experiencing an episodic health challenge. Develop an awareness of the personal meaning of the hospital experience from the perspective of the family. Explore how the selected concept, transition, relates to the individual s/family s experience. Compare your family s experience of transition with that described in the literature relating to transition. Reflect on what has been learned when writing this paper and how it will influence your future practice. IN PREPARATION FOR THE MEETING 1. In consultation with your clinical nurse educator choose an individual/family from your practice area. This individual should be a client that you have cared for in your practice placement. If you are unable to find a suitable family in your clinical area, you may choose a family you know who is experiencing an episodic health challenge. This family should not be your family or any relative. In addition, the episodic health challenge must have been experienced within the previous 30 days or the information in the interview will be too faded to be of true learning value. 2. Explain the purpose of the meeting to the individual and family as required. (Eg. this assignment does not include hands on care.) 3. Give the individual/family an Information Letter to reinforce the purpose of the meetings. 4. Make an appointment with the family. It may be possible to meet with the client and family during your clinical experience. If you are meeting the client and family during clinical hours, be sure you clinical nurse educator and the unit staff are aware of the meeting. If you are meeting with the client and family after normal clinical hours, e Lucille Aunger, 201020. Revised, 201020

8 of 17 arrangements must be made with the ward staff. Your clinical nurse educator will help with this. 5. Submit the original signed consent form to your clinical practice nurse educator, who will attach it to your clinical evaluation for filing. If a consent form is not signed your paper will not be marked which will result in a grade of 0. 6. Arrange a date and time for your meeting. You must make a minimum of one family visit. Please bear in mind the nature of the episodic health challenge may mean the individual is not be able to meet for a long period of time. Ensure you are arranging mutually convenient times and time periods with the family. Have the individual/family sign the verification of visit form. Submit the original verification of visit form to your clinical practice nurse educator. Submit a photocopy to your N2250 course nurse educator the day your paper is due. It should be submitted separate from the paper--do not attach to your paper. Your paper will not be marked if this form is not received. 7. Prepare for your visit by reflecting on the interactions you have had with this family, reviewing your class notes and clinical worksheets, and reading your texts. The content you should review includes family theory, peoples experience with an episodic health challenge, people s experience with healing and other Term III concepts. 8. Prior to meeting, identify questions you would like to ask the individual/family that will help you understand their lived experience. 9. Consult your nurse educator well ahead of time regarding any problems you envision in preparing for writing this paper. This is a formal, academic paper. Many students have limited experience writing academic papers and are therefore encouraged to visit the Writing Centre for assistance in both the planning and writing phases of their paper. e Lucille Aunger, 201020. Revised, 201020

The paper consists of the following: The Introduction should include what your paper is about; be explicit The Body of the paper should include 9 of 17 Part I: An assessment of the family and family development: life cycle stages and tasks which include internal & external family structure as well as family function & expressive function. The family s experience with the episodic health challenge which lead up to the need for hospitalization, the hospitalization, the health care professionals, and healing in the hospital This part of the paper is not asking for your interpretation of the family s experience. You are expected to ask the family about their experience with a view to understanding why they feel the way they do. Part II: Describe the concept of transition and discuss how it relates to your family s experience. Reference your nursing content using recent and relevant literature and/or research. Discuss this family s experience as it compares with the selected literature. Identify common themes and patterns as they relate to your family and the research. Internet sites may be used to a maximum of three references. Textbooks and journal literature are preferred. Reflection on what you learned from this assignment and explain how your new learning will help you provide care for future individuals/families experiencing an episodic health challenge. The Conclusion should include A brief summary of what your paper was about and identification of main themes or points Submission of this paper is necessary for successful completion of Nursing 2250 Healing I. In certain unexpected circumstances, it may be necessary to request an extension for submission of your paper. This request needs to be negotiated with your nurse educator individually and preferably at least a week prior to the submission date. It is understood that this would be the exception. No papers will be returned until all assignments have been received. e Lucille Aunger, 201020. Revised, 201020

GROUP PRESENTATION 12 of 17 Each group will complete a creative, forty minute presentation on one of the course concepts. Each group will sign up for a course concept. The presentation format might unfold as a story; a lived experience of an episodic health challenge of a client and family from the clinical setting or one created by the group. Focus on the concept and base your teachings around that concept. The presentation should be an opportunity for you to draw from your clinical experiences and classroom theory to come to an understanding of the lived experiences of families in an episodic health challenge. Marking Criteria for Group Presentations: a) Creativity b) Comprehension of the concept c) Relevance of Concept with nursing practice d) Class participation (Question/Answer period) The following are question to help you think about marking your classmates: 1. Subject. Was the presentation informative? Did it have a clear focus? Was it well researched? 2. Organization/Clarity. Was it easy to follow? Was there a clear introduction and conclusion? 3. Preparation. Had the speakers rehearsed? Were the speakers in control of the sequence, pacing and flow of the presentation? Did the group make effective use of notes, without relying on them too heavily? 4. Sensitivity to audience. Did the speakers maintain eye contact with all members of the class? Did speakers give you time to take notes as needed? Did speakers repeat the main ideas more than once? Did speakers make effective use of pauses, gestures, change in pace and pitch? 5. Visual aids. Did the speakers make effective use of handouts, overheads and/or the blackboard? If used, were overheads or board writing large enough to see easily?
