1. Our CKD Multidisciplinary Clinic will be located in an urban setting, as this will allow for easy
Kidney Disease Class Activity 2022
Refer to the article by Dr. Collister and colleagues (2019) on the assignment page. The role of the multidisciplinary team has been shown to be impactful for patients with chronic kidney disease on multiple endpoints and outcomes. Notably, there is no single recipe for success in these clinics, and more research is needed. The ability for the AGACNP to recognize effective management and risk mitigation strategies for CKD patients and appreciate the unique contribution of the multidisciplinary team is vital to practitioner success. Scenario:
College of Nursing has received a grant to develop a nurse practitioner-run multidisciplinary chronic kidney disease (CKD) center. The grant is for $1.5 million over 3 years. The health system has committed to donating the space for this clinic in a location of interest. Now they are asking the advanced practice providers (you and your group) for input on the development of this innovative health center.
Part I: Virtual Class Activity.
I. Directions for Group Activity: Please note: all groups will be assigned during the virtual class. Each group will have at least 20 mins to answer ALL of the following questions as a group. Each member should take notes, as each group will be asked to present their answer and rationale for at least ONE question when we return to the large group with the entire class to debrief. Each student will also submit their group’s answers on Canvas; see Part II. 1. In your breakout room groups, create a CKD Multidisciplinary Clinic. Describe the setting (urban, rural, etc), patient demographics, and team composition. Why did you pick this setting, population, and team? Think about impact!
2. Discuss 3 specific CKD-related outcomes you will track/measure at the clinic? (be specific – labs, diagnostics, vital signs, etc.). Include peer-reviewed references and explain WHY you chose these diagnostics and WHY these outcomes are valuable to measure.
3. Discuss 2 lifestyle interventions/outcomes you will track and promote within the clinic (be specific). Describe WHY these interventions are important for kidney disease.
4. Elaborate on the unique contributions of 3 specific team members from your center: A. Examples of members of the multidisciplinary team to discuss: Nurse Practitioner
Nephrologist
Social Worker
Dietician
Pharmacist
Additional clinicians or professionals of your choice
Part II: Case Study Assignment. I. Each individual student must upload their own submission from the Part I: Group Activity answers (#1-4). Each student will add a personal reflection to the Canvas Assignments page under Case Study #2. 1. Submit answers from Class Group Activity (Questions 1 -4)
2. Add Personal Reflection: Discuss how easy/hard it was to determine which team members and outcome measures to prioritize. What barriers do you perceive in initiating this clinic? How could you overcome these barriers?
II. Important:
1. Include a minimum of 2 peer-reviewed, evidenced-based references in APA format (for in text and reference list) to support your answers and rationale. NO title page is required. You may answer in bullet points but should still have in-text citations. You may edit your group answers if you find different answers supported by evidence in the literature.
2. Limit your assignment to no more than 500 words or one page.
