Cards

Term

Health Education Definition

Definition

-A dimension of the required "caring" of the nurse

-recognizeses the patient as the best manager of their care

-a practice based on influence not control

-focused on behavioral changes

-a patient's right to know what is going on

Term
Reasons for health education
Definition

-help people take responsibilty for their health

-decrease risk of critial incidents occuring

-individualized care (what they cannot do for themselves)

-a professional/legal duty of the nurse

-patients have a right to know

-to gain pt. partnership

Term

Process of health education

Definition

Assessment-med/nursing diagnoses

Plan for care-teamwork, priorities, short/long term goals, specific/measurable objectives (pt. included)

Implementation-how the plan will be implemented, teaching targeted to meet mutually estabilished goals

Evaluation-how goals were met, med/nursing diagoses resolved or referred for continuing care, leads back to assessment

 

Term
Why is health education an essential element of quality health care?
Definition

-seeks to care for the whole person

-seeks to make the individual the manager of their

health

-giving people what they do not have to then be able to function better

-decreases recovery time

-supports individuals right to know

-encourages pt. participation in care/decisions

-increase longterm wellbeing

-increase coping ability

-inform regarding financial responsiblities, what to expect

Term
Four ways to include health education when time is limited?
Definition

-Set priorities

-Teach pt. about actions being done by health care provider during the action

-Provide material for the pt. to study but evaluate their understanding after

-Include multidisciplinary members to participate in teaching

Term

Health Belief Model

Definition

To identify factors that influence complience and motivation, and how a pt. percieves their health problem

Six factors are considered:

1. Pt. perception of illness severity

2. Pt. perception of susceptibiltiy to illness and consequenses

3. Value of treatment benefits

4. Barriers to treatment

5. Costs of treatment physically and emotionally

6. Cues that stiumuate taking action toward treatment of illness (ie. media, previous experience, health pamphlets ect.)

Term
Health Promotion Model
Definition

Inventor believed health was related to self-initiationed behaviors directed toward attaining hgihter levels of health.

The model assumes that people seek to create conditions of living through which they can express their unique human health potential. That people have the capacity for self awareness, value growth, try to achieve a balance between change and stablity, seek to regulate their own behavior, people interact with their environment progressively transforming the environment and being transformed overtime. Health care providers are part of this environment that influences and self initiated changes are essential to behavior change

Organized into 3 categories:

1. indivuidual characteristics and expreinces

2. behavior specfic cognitions and affect

3. behavioral outcome

Term
Behavioral theory of learning
Definition

Conditioning or behavior modification        

Formation of stimulus-response linkages or response-stimulus reinforcements

Teacher centered with passive learners     

 

Increased probability of desired response and is useful for reinforcing desired behaviors in children 

 

 

Term
Social Cognitive learning theories
Definition

Conceptual Model

From http://www.emory.edu/EDUCATION/mfp/eff.html.

 

Increased belief that one is capable of performing desired behavior and that the performace wil lead to expected outome

 Enhancement of self confidnence and self efficacy can lead to desired health behavior changes and maintencance of desired behavior

Term
Cognitive learning theories
Definition

Gains or changes insights, outlooks or though    patterns

Reorganizes perceputal or cognitive fields.         Purposive involvement, problem solving/raising. 

Teacher-student centered with cooperative and    interactive inquiry

Information processing model consists of short & long term memory. Long term memory is banked and can be retrieved later for use by short term memory.

 

Leads to purposfully acquired insights, preinciplies, relationships, concepts, generalizations, rules, theories, or lawas with enhanced scientific outlook and instrumental thinking. Diagnostic reasoning

 

Applicable to affective learning. Useful when working with groups with common problems. Useful for building and connecting information

Term

    Definition
    1. Cognitive Learning Theory

  • Term
    Social Cognitive learning theory
    Definition
    1. Social Cognitive Theory
    2. Includes elements of behavioral and cognitive learning theory

  • Term
    10 Ways a health care provider can design a learning environment that motivates learning
    Definition

    1. Encourage the learner when they suceed

         8. Use of object lessons (ie. progression of lung changes in undermangaged COPD or heart the heart in undermanged heart disease)

    9. Opportunities to practice new skills taught

    10. Establish a climate of mutual trust and safety

    Are the three domains of learning mutually exclusive? Why or why not
    Definition

    The three domains of learning are not mutually exclusive since it is possible for teaching to occur in more than one domain at the same time (ie. coaching a pt. through an insulin injection -both cognitive and psychomotor domains.

     

    side note: often necessary to address one domain before being able to address another (ie. affective domain regarding insulin need for a pt. with IDDM and using cognitive domain to work with affective domain to ultimately teach an injection in the psycomotor domain.)

    Self efficacy theory
    Definition
    Also called social learning theory. The confidence that one can carry out a behavior to reach a desired goal.

    Mind mapping
    Definition

    A mind map is a diagram used to represent words, ideas, tasks, or other items linked to and arranged radially around a central key word or idea. Mind maps are used to generate, visualize, structure, and classify ideas, and as an aid in study, organization, problem solving, decision making, and writing.

    Preparation- variable time period, prelimiary healthy behavior attempts such as brief attempts

    Action-up to 6 mo., action interspersed with recidivism and relapse

    Maintenance- 6 mo. after successful behavior change in action phase, may last for yrs if successful, relapse may occur but less common than during action stage

    What are the 4 levels of Evaluation?
    Definition

    Level A: Pt. and family involvement during intervention did they like it

     

    Level B: Pt. performance immediately after learning experience did they learn it

     

    Level C: Patient performance at home did they use it

     

    Level D: Patient's overall self-care adn health management was teaching worth it in the long run

    Term

    How is evaluation conducted?
    Definition

    Term

    Who is evaluated in the Evaluation step of the education process?

    Definition

    The teacher and learner

     

     In this phase the educator needs to measure behavior, look critically at patient care, identify problems that have prevented learning and if their are still current learning needs
