Reinforcing the Teach-Back Method for Nurses Providing Stroke Patient Education
(North Dakota State University, 2014) Dosch, Ahren Evangeline
Literature indicates an opportunity to improve the stroke patient education experience. Enhancing stroke education for nurses is a method by which the patient education experience may be improved. The purpose of the problem-solving project is to provide educational sessions for nurses who have experience in caring for stroke patients and who have received prior education on utilization of the teach-back method. Analysis of the problem solving project helps gain understanding of what demographic factors play a role in nurses’ perceived usefulness of the teaching session. Identifying common demographic factors of nurses’ perceived usefulness will allow nurse educators to direct education efforts toward those groups which demonstrate a lack of understanding regarding the topic presented. The problem solving project was guided by the conceptual framework of Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory.
