This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roundtable on Health Literacy brings together leaders from academia, industry, government, foundations, and associations and representatives of patient and consumer interests who work to improve health literacy. To achieve its mission, the roundtable discusses challenges facing health literacy practice and research and identifies approaches to promote health literacy through mechanisms and partnerships in both the public and private sectors. To explore the aspects of health literacy that impact the ability of patients to understand and follow discharge instructions and to learn from examples of how discharge instructions can be written to improve patient understanding of-and hence compliance with-discharge instructions, the Roundtable on Health Literacy held a public workshop. The workshop featured presentations and discussions that examined the implications of health literacy for discharge instructions for both ambulatory and inpatient facilities. Facilitating Patient Understanding of Discharge Instructions summarizes the presentations and discussions of the workshop. This report gives an overview of the impact of discharge instructions on outcomes, and discusses the specifics of inpatient discharge summaries and outpatient after-visit summaries. The report also contains case studies illustrating different approaches to improving discharge instructions.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upon discharge from an emergency department (ED), patient education is a crucial component to ensuring adequate self-care of not only acute but chronic medical conditions. According to the CDC, there are approximately 130 million emergency department visits annually, with only 16.2 million resulting in hospital admissions. This leaves about 114 million opportunities for healthcare providers to educate patients at the time of discharge from the emergency department (ED). Research suggests more often than not, patients have difficulty understanding and comprehending the information they are given resulting in non-compliance with their treatment plans and appropriate follow-up. Although there are a variety of factors that can play a role in non-compliance with discharge instructions including language, healthcare literacy, stressful situations, a heavy workload for the healthcare provider, and an overall chaotic environment, there is a need for intervention. The purpose of this future research study is to evaluate if the use of pictographs written at a third-grade reading level improves compliance, comprehension, and satisfaction of discharge instructions as opposed to the standard written/verbal instructions commonly used in EDs across the nation.

Download or read book Emergency Care for Children written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children represent a special challenge for emergency care providers, because they have unique medical needs in comparison to adults. For decades, policy makers and providers have recognized the special needs of children, but the system has been slow to develop an adequate response to their needs. This is in part due to inadequacies within the broader emergency care system. Emergency Care for Children examines the challenges associated with the provision of emergency services to children and families and evaluates progress since the publication of the Institute of Medicine report Emergency Medical Services for Children (1993), the first comprehensive look at pediatric emergency care in the United States. This new book offers an analysis of: • The role of pediatric emergency services as an integrated component of the overall health system. • System-wide pediatric emergency care planning, preparedness, coordination, and funding. • Pediatric training in professional education. • Research in pediatric emergency care. Emergency Care for Children is one of three books in the Future of Emergency Care series. This book will be of particular interest to emergency health care providers, professional organizations, and policy makers looking to address the pediatric deficiencies within their emergency care systems.
