Response
PLEASE RESPOND IN 50 WORDS OR MORE TO THE FOLLOWING:
1. What staffing model is implemented at the facility where you work? What would you recommend for modifying the staffing model where you work, what is you recommendation based on and how would you implement the change? (Support your thoughts/ideas with academic literature OR required readings)
The staffing model the facility where I work is a nursing home. We use a census as our staffing model. On my floor there is a total of 23 rooms and 2 clients per room. Most of the time we are short staffed, and as a result there are only 2 nurses and we each have 23 patients sometimes less if patients get discharged. Per facility each nurse is suppose to have 9 patients. When dividing patients among nurses I think it is important to take into account patient acuity, some patients require more intense care than others. Meaning if the patients are equally divided the workload may not be. I believe that it is important to talk to your coworkers about this concern to prevent placing patients at risk and create a positive environment where the workload is shared. A lot of times coworkers are not willing to change assignments and that is where I think the unit manager should step in. To fix this problem more staff should be hired to keep the 9:1 ratio and the unit nurse should review assignments, before they are given. Most nurses experience substantial fatigue, with high acuity patients having an overall greater impact. We recommend that NPAs shall contain fewer high acuity patients than lower acuity patients. Additionally, The OFER acute fatigue scale (OPER-AF) suggests that assignments should contain no more than five patients to mitigate fatigue (Mollica and Schwerha, 2021).

Informatics in healthcare
IM3001A Module 3 Pre-Assessment (PDF)
Module Pre-Assessments are your opportunity to practice applying module content before final submission of your Competency Assessment. For your final Competency Assessment, you will address scenarios related to the importance of nursing informatics in healthcare.
For your Module 3 Pre-Assessment, respond to the following prompts. These prompts match those in your final Assessment. Be sure to support your responses with evidence from scholarly literature.
Prompts:
Scenario:
A patient approaches you after her consultation with her physician. Her physician had reviewed her electronic health record with her during the consultation. The patient realized that some of the information in her EHR was incorrect. The patient asks you to make changes to this information. Is this possible? Why or why not? Write a 1-page response that includes the following:
- Describe what you would tell the patient in this scenario regarding making changes to her electronic health record (EHR).
- Explain your reasons for responding to the patient in the way you describe.
- Be sure to reference any legal requirements related to EHRs.
