Individualization of PD medication creates vulnerability during care transitions.CONCLUSION: All groups improved with respect to perceived comfort and competency. Copyright (c) 2021 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Inc.METHOD: Four interprofessional groups took part in this study: baccalaureate degree senior nursing students (n = 113), master's level nurse anesthesia students (n = 35), doctor of osteopathic medicine fourth-year students (n = 32), and doctor of clinical psychology fourth-year students (n = 22). Groups participated in an unfolding case study simulation involving a mock code with a focus on the omission of time-sensitive PD medication. Pre- and postsimulation test results were compared.RESULTS: Findings indicated an increased understanding among three of the four groups relating to medication timing during care transitions.Originally published: Nursing Education Perspectives. 2021 Dec 21Fiscal year: FY2022Digital Object Identifier: Date added to catalog: 2022-02-21Item type | Current library | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
