A physical therapist sees a patient who has been sent home from the ER t wice. She identifies deteriorating neurological symptoms, contacts the neur ologist and gets lifesaving help for the patient. Another agency patient en ds up in the ER in fluid overload, gasping for breath, because the home car e nurse did not check weight trends at every visit. What made the differen ce in these two situations? The answer is critical thinking and action - or the lack thereof.
Clinicians will assess their own critical thinkin g attributes and skills. They will learn how to delve for relevant informa tion, how to recognize patterns and how to apply intuition and clinical exp erience to patient care. The session will also explore how to think critica lly under extreme pressure, how to build a repertoire of resources, the rol e of computers and clinical guidelines in critical thinking and how to iden tify and manage assumptions and bias. Participants in this interactive sess ion will participate in case study analyses and critical thinking exercises .
