TRANSCRIPT
11.8 Describe the process of assessing, planning, organizing, implementing and evaluating the educational needs, reflecting concern for cultural differences and language, of patient populations at all levels of the organization.
The Massachusetts General Hospital’s (MGH) Patient and Family Education policy clearly
defines the role and responsibility of Staff Nurses in assessing, planning, implementing and
evaluating patient educational needs. Health care providers collaborate as needed to assist the
patient and/or significant other to gain the knowledge and skills needed to meet the patient’s health
care needs. Learning opportunities are individualized to the patient’s/family’s relevant health care
needs appropriate to their level of understanding and congruent with their cultural values as stated in
the Patient and Family Education policy (Attachment 11.8.a).
Patient/family learning needs are assessed upon initial admission to the hospital, or on initial
outpatient visit, and reassessed throughout the course of care by a registered nurse or other licensed
health care provider. The assessment considers the patient’s specific learning needs (knowledge and
skill acquisition) as well as his/her ability to learn (preferences, desire, motivation and readiness);
cultural and religious practices; emotional, physical, cognitive, or language barriers; and financial
implications of care choices. The nursing admission dataset form is used as a tool to guide nurses to
identify patient learning needs when a patient is admitted to the hospital. The dataset form also lists
patient education resources that the nurse can consider using if an educational need is identified
within a particular section of the dataset form. The patient problem/intervention list is then used to
outline the appropriate teaching plan and includes the patient’s educational goals and the nursing
interventions to be implemented. A sample problem/intervention list is provided as attachment
11.8.b.
Nurses are trained during initial orientation and through a continuing education process on
how to access and use patient teaching tools that include on-line printed materials, a patient
education television channel, and skill-based equipment needed to teach each individual patient.
During the patient’s hospitalization, the nurse documents the evaluation of patient learning in the
progress note using a problem oriented documentation format. When a patient is discharged from
the hospital, the nurse documents the patient’s discharge education (including discharge instructions,
follow-up needed etc.) in the electronic medical record “discharge documentation” module. In the
outpatient setting, patient education is documented in the electronic medical record, or in the
progress note or appropriate clinical department form.

Patient Education Committee
The Patient Care Services Patient Education Committee, a subcommittee of Collaborative
Governance has been actively involved in shaping clinician patient education practice through a
variety of programs and activities. The committee’s charter is to stimulate, facilitate and generate
knowledge of patient education materials, programs and systems that will improve patient care and
enhance the environment in which clinicians shape their practice. The 2006 Patient Education
Annual Report highlights the most recent accomplishments (attachment 11.8.c).
The Patient Education Committee completed a patient education survey of Collaborative
Governance (CG) members in August 2005 (attachment 11.8.d) to measure practice in the areas of
patient education assessment, planning and resource utilization, teaching techniques, evaluation of
patient learning, and confidence in teaching patients. Results of the survey provided a strategic
guide for the committee’s goals for the following 18 months that included: heightening staff
awareness about patient education tools and resources available at the MGH, providing continuing
education opportunities to learn more about patient education principles and practices, developing
an annual patient education practice competency for nurses, and consolidating all on-line patient
education resources into one central website for easy access. Results of the survey were
communicated to the MGH clinical staff through a Caring Headlines article (attachment 11.8.e) and
a poster that was displayed during Nursing Research Day in May 2006.
The committee worked collaboratively with other CG committees to sponsor several hallway
displays aimed at staff and patients to heighten awareness of patient education topics and issues.
These included:
♦ A health literacy table display in October 2005 organized by the patient education and
diversity committee. The theme of “Health Literacy in Many Languages” focused on
education materials and services that are available at MGH for non-English speaking
patients and families. This event was highlighted in an issue of Caring Headlines
(attachment 11.8.f).
♦ A patient education resource fair and film fest conducted in July 2006. A hallway display set
up in the main corridor contained samples of patient education resources available to staff.
The Blum Patient and Family Learning Center housed a film fest where staff learned how to
operate the on-demand patient education television channel and preview patient education
videos.
112
♦ An advance care planning display organized by the CG Patient Education and Ethics
Committees held in the spring of 2006 and 2007, targeting both staff and patients to
educate them about advance directives, naming a health care agent, and completing the
health care proxy form. Attachment 11.8.g is an issue in Caring Headlines detailing this
initiative.
The Patient Education Committee also developed an RN “Patient Education” competency
packet in 2006 for Nursing Directors to use during annual competency evaluation of nursing staff
(attachment 11.8.h). The packet provides a review of the nurse’s role in assessing, planning,
implementing and evaluating patient education. It also includes a practice guideline for patient
education, a self paced tutorial to learn how to access on-line patient education resources, a quiz to
validate knowledge, and criteria that should be used to evaluate and document competence in
patient education practice. The committee presented the competency packet to the Combined
Leadership meeting in September 2006 along with recommendations for implementation
(attachment 11.8.i).
In the summer of 2006, the committee developed and launched a website that serves as a
central source for all on-line patient education resources found at the MGH
(http://www.mghpted.org). Staff can access general information about the Patient Education
Committee; link to committee goals and accomplishments including four years worth of articles
published in Caring Headlines; and access MGH patient education policies, procedures and the
patient education competency packet (see attachment 11.8.j for a flyer advertising the new site). The
site also provides links to several patient education document databases as well as information on
how to use the patient education television channel and how to develop patient education materials
in common language. Attachment 11.8.k is a Caring Headlines article that highlights the new
website.
MGH has a commitment to the cultural and language differences represented in the patient
populations served. In order to meet the learning needs of these patients, several of the patient
education document databases that are available for staff contain both English and Spanish versions
of materials including CareNotes/DrugNotes (attachment 11.8.l) and patient education videos
(attachment 11.8.m). In addition, the MGH drug formulary offers drug information for patients in
sixteen different languages. Staff has access to professionally trained medical interpreters when
needed for all patient education activities. Medical interpreters can be access through the hospital’s
113
Interpreter office or through a newly implemented 24-hour medical interpreter telephone service
known as the iPop project (Force 6.17).
Chaplaincy
The Chaplaincy department also plays an important role in working collaboratively with
MGH nurses and other clinicians to ensure that patient’s cultural and educational needs are met. A
recent example of this includes a terminally-ill Cape Verdean patient who had a great fear of death
but who could not discuss it with her family due to cultural prohibitions. The chaplain was able to
work with clinical staff and use spiritual resources to help the patient and her husband have the
needed conversation about death, which led to a much more peaceful death for the patient. Nursing
staff also identified a need for chaplaincy intervention with a Haitian patient who wanted a voodoo
ritual performed with lighted candles to strengthen her spirit. A chaplain on staff, who speaks Creole
and understands the Haitian culture, educated staff and helped to facilitate a ritual with an electric
candle that met the patients’ needs and was in keeping with hospital safety policies.
The Blum Patient and Family Learning Center
As outlined in the attachment brochure (attachment 11.8.n), The Blum Patient and Family
Learning Center serves as a consumer health and patient education resource center for MGH.
Managed by a master’s prepared registered nurse, the Blum Center is involved in many projects and
programs that support patient education throughout the institution. The Blum Center provides
services that include information searches in a variety of languages, free delivery of materials to
patients at home or on the patient care unit, a library with over 500 book titles, 300 pamphlet titles,
30 consumer health journals, and a web site with links to a variety of consumer health databases and
resources. A registered nurse manages the patient education television channel (attachment 11.8.o)
that provides patients with on-demand access to over 200 educational videos in English and
Spanish. Video content is managed by the Blum Center’s Patient Education Nurse who solicits
clinician input for recommendations of video content needed, collaborates with interdisciplinary
clinicians to preview video materials, and educates nursing staff on use of the video system.
The Blum Center
The Blum Center is the co-principal with the Stoeckle Center for Primary Care Innovation in
a research study that evaluates the effectiveness of shared decision-making videos in assisting
114
patients with treatment or health behavior management decisions; such as, reviewing choices for
colo-rectal cancer screening methods or making a decision about total hip replacement surgery.
Primary Care physicians order a video title for their patient through the electronic medical record.
The Blum Center receives the order and distributes the video along with a questionnaire to the
patient. Preliminary study data has shown that the evidence-based decision support videos are a
valuable patient education tool. Over 900 patients have participated in the study and responses are
very positive.
The Cancer Center
The MGH Cancer Center also offers a variety of educational programs and resources for
oncology patients and families including the HOPES program as well as two Cancer Resource
Rooms. The HOPES (Health Oncology Patient Education Service) program offers free education
and support workshops plus wellness services for patients with cancer. Social workers, chaplains,
nurses, experienced patients and caregivers, and other experts work together to provide HOPES
workshops and services. The Cancer Center Room offers a variety of services and educational
resources in print and electronic format. (http://www.massgeneral.org/cancer/crr/index.asp)
Primary Care Outpatient Practices
The MGH Primary Care outpatient practices offer a variety of consumer focused, easy-to-
read patient education materials designed and written by a registered nurse.
(http://oi.mgh.harvard.edu/pcoi/frontpage_frames.asp This library of on-line, intranet materials is
available to clinicians through a link within the electronic medical record for easy access and
distribution to patients at the point of care. Many of the documents are available in both English
and Spanish.

c. Hold a hallway display day to promote patient education resources available at MGH
Accomplishments: 1.Three 2-hour workshops were scheduled in the FND 6 computer workroom for the months of February, May and September 2006. The May workshop was cancelled due to low attendance. The workshops were advertised in the KNCCPD online calendar, Caring Headlines, and emails sent out to unit NM’s and CNS. Total attendance for the Feb and Sept workshops was 9 clinicians. Evaluations of the workshops were overwhelmingly positive. 2. A patient education staff nurse competency was developed by the committee and submitted for consideration to the PCS competency taskforce that met in April and May 2006. The competency included learning objectives, the newly revised patient education practice guideline, a listing of electronic patient education resources for nurses to practice accessing, a five question quiz to validate knowledge, and a requirement for staff to access one DrugNote document to submit to the Nurse Manager as well as a sample of their documentation on the Interdisciplinary Patient and Family Teaching Record. The task force did not select the annual competency. The committee then made a presentation at the Sept 5 2006 Combined Leadership meeting announcing that the competency packet was available on the Patient Education Committee website and could be used as a unit based competency for those who saw value in having their staff demonstrate competence in patient education. 3. A patient education hallway display was held in July 2006. Committee members provided samples of patient education materials and electronic resources. A convenient computer sticker was distributed listing online patient education resources and how to access them. A self-study tutorial was made available on how to access electronic patient education information. A sample of appropriate documentation on the Patient and Family Interdisciplinary Teaching Record was also provided. Goal: Communicate and disseminate Patient Education information and activities to the larger MGH community.
a. Write a quarterly column in Caring Headlines related to patient education projects and initiatives.
b. Disseminate results of the Patient Education Survey conducted by the committee.
Accomplishments: 1.Caring Headline articles published quarterly and targeted specific committee initiatives including: JCAHO preparation (April 06), MGH patient education TV channel (July 06), patient education practice survey results (Sept 06), The Nov 13th “Essence of Patient Education” workshop (Dec 06)
123

Discussion F/U Action
Sharon Bouvier and Marita Prater presented: Documentation and Communication Project Update
• Pilot for this program will start on September 12th on White 8 and Bigelow 14. Pilot will be conducted over 4 months. • Goal is to use new Nursing Data Set instead of former admission note and nursing assessment regardless where patient comes in from and to make sure that it transfers with them to the floor. • The Care Team Model is how we deliver care. It is designed to help establish a relationship between patients and their families. This model provides consistency in the care by the Care Team. • As for now, Nurses are the only disciplines that are able to enter info on these forms. This may change down the road. • ICU units are adult specific. Pedi to be developed at a later date. • Cardiac CHF packets/patient education should be reflected in the correspondence notes See attached presentation: file://j:\pcsldr\Combined_Leadership\2006_Attachments\09-05-06_Documentation_and_Communication_ Project.ppt
Marita and Sharon created sample sets and will share with the group before they get rolled out.

George Reardon presented: CBeds
Impacts to Patient care units
• As of now, different floors have different procedures. CBeds will help streamline the bed process across the hospital. Please refer to link below to review charts of current state and future state with CBeds.
• USA’s will be getting beepers. The CBeds champions will teach them how to use the beepers and the phone system.
• CBeds cannot support intra-unit transfers. • PACU will have new system but will use
CBeds as an inquiry.
Cbed Implementation Schedule • Please review schedule by clicking on the link
below. If these dates do not work, please email George Reardon.
Implementation Approach
