UPDATED TASK TO DO (3,000 words)
You need to write 3000 words adopting a case study approach that facilitates the critical analysis and evaluation of leadership demonstrated in the safe and effective delivery of evidence based care.
SCENARIO
Susan is a patient on a rehabilitation unit. She has a diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder and borderline personality disorder. She often experiences mood swings and constant feelings of paranoia and being watched. She copes with these feelings by occasional self-harm and can sometimes be aggressive and disturbed, when bothered by paranoid feelings and a raised mood.
The past 72 hours have been particularly disturbed for Susan. She has expressed concerns that both staff and patients are plotting to poison her food, and she has made indeterminate threats to “retaliate” if she feels she has been poisoned.
You receive a phone call from Susan’s sister, who lives in a different city. Susan is visiting with her 12 year old nephew and would like to visit that evening. Susan is very fond of her nephew and often talks of him and spends her limited money on buying him gifts.
Staffing levels are adequate but low on the ward that evening and several other patients are quite unwell and agitated. Outline a management plan for this situation.
Case studies are adapted from, Callaghan P, Playle J and Cooper L (eds) (2009) Mental Health Nursing Skills, Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press.
With sample practice experience, analyse and evaluate your management and leadership skills and those of nurses/clinicians around you in the safe and effective delivery of evidence based care by:
(a) Critically review and appraise appropriate evidence and relevant scientific theory to evaluate clinical risk and promote safe decision making when caring for people with complex needs.
(b) Critically evaluate the application of leadership and management theories in promoting professional values and standards in relationship – centred care.
(c) Critically analyse and apply leadership and management skills in ensuring high quality innovative and evidence – based care.
