Nursing Education Class Plan for Dementia Care: 2019

This class plan outlines a nursing education session focused on dementia care, designed to equip student nurses with essential skills for caring for patients with dementia. The session aims to improve patient recovery by covering key topics such as the identification of dementia symptoms, exploration of cognitive and behaviorism theories, classification of learning models, and assessment of patients' quality of life (QoL) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The lesson includes a structured outline with time allocations, teacher and student activities, and required aids. The assessment involves evaluating the efficacy of HRQoL in determining the quality of life of the patient. The plan emphasizes the importance of evidenced-based practices and provides practical applications for assessing HRQoL in clinical settings. The plan includes a lesson plan and assessment forms to evaluate the learning process and its outcomes. The assessment covers the HRQoL model, learning models, and interpolation techniques, focusing on patient safety and satisfaction, and data contextualization.

Part 1
Class Lesson Title: Nursing education on dementia care
Date & Time: 12 May, 2019
Part 2
Aim
 To equip student nurses with skills important to be used in caring patients with
Dementia syndrome and improve to improve their recovery.
 To assess the efficacy of the learning models and styles used in nursing teching
and education.
Learning Outcomes
On completion of this class session the students will be expected to/ be able to:
 Identify the common symptoms of dementia
• Explain the cognitive and behaviourism theories
• Classify the different types of learning models
• Assess the quality of life of patients under dementia care.
• Differentiate the HRQoL from QoL.
• Provide quality services to patients under dementia care.
Lesson Content:
• Learning theories provided important content for dementia care.
• Nursing practices requires extensive reviews if peer-reviewed articles.
• Evidenced-based practices involves analysis of various theories proposed by
different scholars (Moon, 2013, p. 30).
• The altered cognitive functionality affects the behaviour and social wellbeing of
the patients
• Focus is made on the learning models and styles applied in the education process.

• behaviourism theory has been applied most in psychological studies (Mann, 2011,
p. 68).
• This theory focuses on the observation of the behaviour of patients for effective
judgments and decision-making.

Assessments:
 HRQoL is a model covers specifically factors that affect health status of the
patients. On the other hand QoL involves the assessment of both health and non-
health issues in the provided literature reviews.
 The assessment of the learning models involves the use of various approaches.
 One of the strategies used in the assessment of HRQoL is interpolation technique.
 The efficacy of HRQoL in determining the quality of life of patient is important.
 Patient safety and satisfaction are evaluated in the assessment process.
 Data is placed in the contextual practice and compared with the information
obtained from Evidence-based practice.
