While the focus of case management activities may involve the individual receiving direct care, the emphasis should be on the interaction and interdependence of individuals within the family, as well as the family s interaction with other systems. Health assessment, promotion, and restoration activities should occur within a family sociocultural and environmental framework. A list of typical nurse case management activities will be provided to serve as a guide for suggested clinical activities. However, each clinical agency differs in respect to focus, scope, and scheduling of health care services provided within the health care continuum. Logs must include dates, times, locations, personal contacts, activities, and a running total of accrued clinical time.
Preceptors verify the completed log with their signature.
These should have been purchased from the SLU Bookstore for the NURS 621 course. If not, order a tag from the Bookstore within the first two weeks of the course. A student will not be able to attend clinical without the proper nametag. Each student will select a topic related to family health on which to lead a 50 minute class seminar discussion. Provide peers with a reading list the week prior to the seminar.
