Book Description

Individualized Healthcare Plans for the School Nurse is a comprehensive work detailing 57 chronic and acute conditions encountered daily by school nurses. Each chapter provides in-depth information on a condition s pathophysiology, management, and important assessment considerations. The individualized healthcare plans (IHPs) for each chapter
include NANDA nursing diagnoses, goals, interventions, and outcomes. Finally, each chapter includes a case study and sample care plan to facilitate the creation of a comprehensive and accurate IHP. Eighteen supporting chapters take a thorough look at many of the special issues and school nursing
concepts along with unique student issues school nurses face in practice. Includes coverage of the purpose and use of individualized healthcare plans, evidenced-based nursing practice, delegation of school nursing activities, collaboration with other educational, health and home care agency plans, integrating
NANDA, NIC, and NOC into IHPs, IHPs in the special education process, HIPPA/FERPA and privacy concerns, using IHPs with 504 plans and special education other health impaired (OHI) plans, third party reimbursement, responding to students in times of crisis, and wellness promotion. Special student issues include coverage of chronic health conditions, immigrant students, psychosocial aspects of students with chronic health conditions, medically fragile students, homeless students,
and a genetics overview for the school nurse developing IHPs. Accompanying this work is an easy-to-use, interactive software program that aids in the development and creation of individualized healthcare plans that include 1) nursing diagnoses; 2) goals; 3) interventions;
4) outcomes; & 5) a column to add individualized assessment data. Detailed student demographic information is added to each care plan to provide a comprehensive and complete record for each student. Allows for multiple conditions and is compatible with both Windows and Macintosh systems. Software creates care plans for all 57 conditions found in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Individualized Healthcare Plans for School Nurses, October 16, 2005
This review is from: Individualized Healthcare Plans for the School Nurse: Concepts, Framework, Issues And Applications for School Nursing Practice (Paperback)
Just published in July, 2005, this comprehensive reference helps school nurses to move into 21st century school nursing. It begins with twelve chapters of frameworks that focus on the challenges and realities of school nursing today, addressing such issues as delegation, evidence-based practice, NANDA, NIC and NOC, HIPAA and FERPA, integrating IHPs with Special Education and 504 plans, insurance reimbursement, crisis planning, and even wellness promotion. A separate section on special student issues covers chronic health conditions, disabilities, homelessness, medically fragile children and more, with emphasis on what the school nurse needs to know.

Although there are four authors for this referernce book, the twelve introductory chapters are authored by well-known authorities whose names will be familiar to school nurses who keep on top of our profession; Judith Harrigan, Deborah Ilardi, Martha Dewey Bergren, Denise Herrman, and Jan Denehy, just to name a few.

Each IHP topic listed in the publisher's description includes an overview of the condition, nursing assessment, intervention, goals and outcomes measures as well as all of the Nursing Diagnoses related to the condition. The plan itself is then presented in the familiar 5 column nursing care plan format.

As if this were not enough, a disk is also included. The plans are on the disk and the school nurse can individualize them for her students following the steps on the disk. The disk is easy to use and works in both Mac and PC formats.

Although the price seems high at first glance (much more than the now out-of-print original IHP Sourcebook) in my opinion, it is a bargain for all that you get: an excellent updated framework for our nursing specialty; 57 IHP's; and a disk that will save you many hours and ensure that you do not miss a thing.

If you do only one thing for your professional development, knowledge advancement and professional accountability this year, I highly recommend that this reference book be at the top of the list!

4.0 out of 5 stars It's all in the details, March 5, 2009
This review is from: Individualized Healthcare Plans for the School Nurse: Concepts, Framework, Issues And Applications for School Nursing Practice (Paperback)
This book and the cd that comes with it is very informative and intimidating at the same time. If you are not comfortable with nursing diagnoses, it could be a challenge to formulate IHPs on your own. Using the pre-set IHPs is easier. Once you get the hang of it, it's very useful.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Individualized Healthcare Plans for the School Nurse: Concepts, Framework, Issues And Applications for School Nursing Practice (Paperback)
This book makes care planning as easy as 1-2-3! Great information on just about any health problem you will encounter in a school setting. You can zoom through your care plans instead of dreading to write them! Also keeps track of your students in an organized fashion.
