R‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‍eflect on an incident in practice where an acute care patient’s physiological condition has deteriorated. In writing this assignment you should consider the following: LEVEL 6,30000 words National drivers relating to caring for an acutely ill patient. An ability to relate pathophysiology to therapeutic interventions and management. The ability to critically analyse and apply evidence based practice. The ability to reflect upon personal learning and implications for future practice. Although the length of your assignment is important (maximum 3000 words) because it indicates the breadth and depth to which you have explored the subject matter, credit is awarded for the quality of arguments and counter-arguments put forward. The structure of the assignment should include an introduction, main body and conclusion. The introduction needs to set the scene and provide a clear background to the case study you are analysing. The context of acute care within contemporary healthcare needs, including national drivers in relation to acute care and the wider NHS should to be considered. The introduction should be in the region of 500 words The main body is the main focus of the assignment and as such should be in the region of 2000 – 2500 words long. The main body should focus on a “snapshot” of deterioration including their clinical observations and document a detailed patient assessment utilising the ABCDE framework or similar (SBAR/RSVP). Include the treatment interventions with physiological basis and research evidence base. Do not forget the importance of the "Six Cs" and the psychosocial implications of acute care .Your actions / interventions need to be analysed in relation to what the literature says. Most important of all you need to demonstrate what you have learnt from the experience and how you can improve or enhance the aspect of patient care in relation to what the evidence base is recommending. The conclusion needs to pull your work together and summarise what you have analysed, what you have found and what you have learnt. You do not introduce new points within the conclusion. The conclusion should be in the region of 250-500 words dependent upon the word-c‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‍ount of previous section. Do not forget to proof read your work for typographical errors. Present it using spacing and ensure the text is justified. Ensure your work is fully supported by the literature. Aim to use research, which is within 5 years old. Any older and you need to justify why you have used such literature. Use journal articles rather than textbooks to support your work, as these are peer –reviewed and contemporary. In presenting your work for assessment you must be sure that you have addressed all of the learning outcomes of the module. Your submission will be marked against these learning outcomes and the assessment criteria. The assessment criteria are a measure of how well you have met the learning outcomes at this level of academic study. References in the text and reference list should be based on the University referencing Harvard System. These types of assessment evaluate students’ ability to critically analyse the holistic care of an acutely ill patient. Following comprehensive critical care, the acutely ill are no longer confined the intensive care environment. Through the case study students are able to explore the evidence base in relation to a variety of psycho-social aspects in relation to the patients and their families acute care journey. Through analysing a patient case study and clinical data, you will be able to demonstrate your knowledge, skills and understanding relating to assessing, planning , implementing and evaluating nursing interventions for a acutely sick individual. This is aimed to measure your achievement against the module learning outcome 1 to 5. The use of case study as a method of assessment is important to consolidate your role you within clinical practice. It will allow you to develop your knowledge, skills, competence and most importantly confidence when caring for the acutely ill patient within the interprofessional team. This will allow you to meet the national standards to effectively recognise and respond appropriately to the needs of the acutely ill adult and to develop the "Six Cs"of Compassion in Practice (DH, 2012) A draft essay is also submitted with documents, course tutors feedback also included in the dr‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‍aft essay
