| Content | Advanced Practice Nurses play a central role in the management of patients with chronic illness especially within the area of self- management support. In this course, students will acquire basic clinical competencies to support adult chronically ill patients in view of their self-management and behavioral change. They will be able to assess the patient experience with patient centered communication, to perform tailored assessments, to analyze clinical cases using theoretical background and empirical evidence and will subsequently be able to develop a care management plan for an individual patient with a chronic illness. Moreover, they will position their activities in the broader context of chronic illness management programs and know key aspects of program implementation and evaluation. This course thus provides an essential fundament for future courses that integrate several clinical skills, i.e., advanced clinical assessment courses • epidemiology and impact of chronic illness • lived experience of chronic illness • principles and outcomes of models of care for the chronically ill (chronic care models) • conceptualization and state of art of patient self-management in chronic illness • theory and techniques of health behavior change and associated health behavior assessment • patient centered and motivational communication skills • implementation and evaluation of chronic care approaches |
| Learning objectives | The students: 1. critically discuss the epidemiology of chronic illness and its implications for health care delivery 2. demonstrate skills of patient centered communication and integration of the patient’s illness experience in the planning chronic care 3. describe the state of the art of outcomes research in view of chronic illness management programs 4. reflect critically on the application of state of the art evidence in view of self-management in chronic illness and evaluate the feasibility, processes and outcomes of self-management programs 5. argue on the theoretical underpinning and empirical evidence of behavioral change techniques 6. demonstrate assessment of behavioral and psychosocial factors in a chronically ill patient 7. outline behavioral change techniques in view of identified issue for an individual patient 8. execute behavioral change techniques and communication in view of identified issue for an individual patient 9. explain the characteristics of care models for the chronically ill population in general and argue on key topics for implementation and evaluation in a specific population/context |
