Development of an Open Source Educational Resource: 'Clinical Procedures for Safer Patient Care'

摘要

An Open Education Resource (OER) has been developed by two nurse educators to address inconsistencies in how clinical health care skills are taught and practiced in the clinical setting, and to ensure best practice and quality care based on the latest evidence. A checklist approach aims to provide clear steps and rationale for procedures, standardized processes for clinical skills and to assist nursing schools and clinical practice partners in teaching clinical skills, and keeping procedural practice current. The format is logical, organized and focused on patient safety, and will provide information retrieval opportunities at the point of care to support decisions and plan patient care. This poster discusses the development of this resource, the framework used, and the process from conception to distribution.
