Assignment: The Patient Safety Pamphlet
Create a 2 pages tri-fold Pamphlet using any type of publisher software you choose to educate clients on a current patient safety issue.
For example:
A. How aging adults can care for themselves at home
B. Medication-polypharmacy and how a patient cannot make a self-medication error,
C. Or other appropriate safety issues like Fall prevention etc.
Your pamphlet must include the following items:
A. At least 5 Tips for preventive care for the patient.
B. Family/Caregiver information that should be shared with family or caregivers.
C. Local Resources in the community that might be available for this type of safety concern.
For the 5 Tips: Think about preventive care here and what information could be provided to the patient to prevent a safety issue. Perhaps a tip could be to add a shower bar for support. What about rugs or cords that might need to be removed? Think about your safety issue and what could be shared here.
Family/Caregiver information: What information could the nurse share with the family or caregiver as part of the pamphlet to provide better support for the patient? What does the family or caregiver need to know?
