American Association of Colleges of Nursing Resources: Age-Friendly Primary Care Nurse Practitioner Unfolding Cases
The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) has released a new learning resource for nurse practitioners, "Age-Friendly Primary Care Nurse Practitioner Unfolding Cases."
The resource uses the Institute for Healthcare Improvement's (IHI) Age-Friendly Health Systems 4Ms Framework to guide learners in caring for a patient with Alzheimer’s dementia, covering scenarios from initial positive screening to end-of-life care.
Through four simulations, the learner gains practical experience involving informant family members, telemedicine delivery, providing home visits, diagnosing and care planning of type 2 diabetes mellitus and preventing falls at home.
All simulation materials can be accessed via a Google Drive Folder.
