Teaching Plan (TP) Format

 

Teaching Need:

Patients participating are males of various ethnicities, cultures, cognition, and education levels, and range from ages 18 and older.  It is important for patients to be able to identify their medications to avoid medication errors.  Knowing their medication can promote medication compliance.  Teaching plan will be given in both English and Spanish if necessary.  Upon completion of teaching plan, patients will obtain the information needed for medication safety.

 

Rationale for Teaching: (What made you decide that this needs to be taught?)

Educate patients on importance of knowing their medication by name, description, dosage, and frequency.  Patients should feel comfortable reporting any side effects.  Medication knowledge can help patients maintain medication compliance during stay at Mesilla Valley Psychiatric Center and at home.

 

Goal of the Teaching Session:

The goal of this teaching session is for patients to understand importance of knowing their medication to avoid medication errors. Patients should be able to recognize side effects.

 

Measurable Objectives (Expected Outcomes):

 

1. The patients will verbalize why it is important to know their medications. (cognitive)

 

2. The patients will verbalize different way on recognizing their medications (cognitive)

 

3. The patients will verbalize importance of reporting side effects. (cognitive)

Teaching Strategies (Methods and Materials):

As patients are oriented times three the teaching will be done in a group session, with a calm and quiet environment.  Teaching will be done by verbal instruction in patients preferred languages.  Teaching plan will consist of patient’s interactions to determine what information regarding medication safety patients are already aware of.

Learner Activities:

Patients may ask questions to better understand information.  Upon completion of teaching plan patients will be expected to verbalize information provided.  If teaching plan is unsuccessful, information will be given again.
