    Care coordination is the process of providing a smooth and seamless transition of care as part of the health continuum. Nurses must be aware of community resources, ethical considerations, policy issues, cultural norms, safety, and the physiological needs of patients. Nurses play a key role in providing the necessary knowledge and communication to ensure seamless transitions of care. They draw upon evidence-based practices to promote health and disease prevention to create a safe environment conducive to improving and maintaining the health of individuals, families, or aggregates within a community. When provided with a plan and the resources to achieve and maintain optimal health, patients benefit from a safe environment conducive to healing and a better quality of life.
    This assessment provides an opportunity to research the literature and apply evidence to support what communication, teaching, and learning best practices are needed for a hypothetical patient with a selected health care problem.
    You are encouraged to complete the Vila Health: Cultural Competence activity prior to completing this assessment. Completing course activities before submitting your first attempt has been shown to make the difference between basic and proficient assessment.

    By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the course competencies through the following assessment scoring guide criteria:

    • Competency 1: Adapt care based on patient-centered and person-focused factors.
      • Design patient-centered health interventions and timelines for care delivered through direct clinical interaction that is logged in the CORE ELMS system.
    • Competency 2: Collaborate with patients and family to achieve desired outcomes.
      • Use the literature on evaluation as a guide to compare learning session content with best practices. Final Care Coordination Plan Paper
    • Competency 3: Create a satisfying patient experience.
      • Describe what the literature says about effective care coordination and patient satisfaction verses experience, including how to align teaching sessions to the Healthy people 2020 document..
    • Competency 4: Defend decisions based on the code of ethics for nursing.

    • Preparation
      In this assessment, you will implement the preliminary care coordination plan you developed in Assessment 1 and communicate the plan to the hypothetical patient in a professional, culturally sensitive, and ethical manner.
      To prepare for the assessment, consider the patient experience and how you would present the plan.
