Description

Literature indicates an opportunity to improve the stroke patient education experience. Enhancing stroke education for nurses is a method by which the patient education experience may be improved. The purpose of the problem-solving project is to provide educational sessions for nurses who have experience in caring for stroke patients and who have received prior education on utilization of the teach-back method. Analysis of the problem solving project helps gain understanding of what demographic factors play a role in nurses’ perceived usefulness of the teaching session. Identifying common demographic factors of nurses’ perceived usefulness will allow nurse educators to direct education efforts toward those groups which demonstrate a lack of understanding regarding the topic presented. The problem solving project was guided by the conceptual framework of Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory.
