Module 1 Overview

Introduction
The first module discusses the role of the case manager in a wide variety of settings. Case management is not only a large part of the acute care setting but, is becoming more and more accessible in the outpatient setting. With current changes in CMS guidelines Case Managers must critically think and evaluate patient and family dynamics quickly to assess for needs outside of the acute care setting. In week one we will review the differences in roles of the case manager.

You have been hired as a consultant by a hospital that is going to begin using case managers in the acute, home care, and primary care settings. You meet with the vice president (VP) of patient services. She tells you that the hospital tried to use case managers 3 years ago, and the project failed. She believes one of the major reasons it failed is because there was no clear position description or role description that was understood by the staff.

five models of evidence-based practice

• Context: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) carries with it a risk of potential hypothermia and significant pain subsequent to the operation. The potential link between heightened postoperative pain and this associated risk of hypothermia requires further research.
• Objective: To determine whether the use of warming gowns during the TKA procedure has a positive effect on a patient’s postoperative pain. For further reference, locate the following article on the internet:
° Benson, E., McMillan, D., & Ong, B. (2012). The effects of active warming on patient temperature and pain after total knee arthroplasty. American Journal of Nursing, 112(5), 26-33.
Step 2 Review the five models.
Review the five models of evidence-based practice:
• PICOT Model for Writing Questions,
• The lowa Model of Evidence-Based Practice to Promote Quality Care
• Multidisciplinary Evidence-Based Practice Model
• Care Bundles
• Stetler Model of Research Utilization
1 in
Step 3 Write a two-page (500-word) paper using APA 7.0 format style..

Briefly summarize the five models of evidence-based practice.
• How might each of these models be implemented in practice to the research problen describec-in the article?
• Which model(s) would you recommend for implementation to this research problem?
Why?
• Conclude your paper with your recommendation of which of the model(s) would best be applied to the research problem and why?

Complete “The VARK Questionnaire,” located on the VARK website, and then complete the following:
Click “OK” to receive your questionnaire scores.
Once you have determined your preferred learning style, review the corresponding link to view your learning preference.
Review the other learning styles: visual, aural, read/write, kinesthetic, and multimodal (listed on the VARK Questionnaire Results page).
Compare your current preferred learning strategies to the identified strategies for your preferred learning style.
Examine how awareness of learning styles has influenced your perceptions of teaching and learning.
In a paper (750-1,000 words), summarize your analysis of this exercise and discuss the overall value of learning styles. Include the following:
Provide a summary of your learning style according the VARK questionnaire.
Describe your preferred learning strategies. Compare your current preferred learning strategies to the identified strategies for your preferred learning style.
Describe how individual learning styles affect the degree to which a learner can understand or perform educational activities. Discuss the importance of an educator identifying individual learning styles and preferences when working with learners.
