In the week from 31 march – 4 april 2014, MeduProf-S expert Froukje Johanna Bijlsma provided the module CVA/Stroke Care in the Rehabilitation Nursing program for the White Yellow Cross, Sint Martins Home Rehabilitation Centre on St. Maarten.
The training focused on the design of a Care Plan for Rehabilitation Nursing and the difference between such a plan and a plan for General Nursing Care. The training combined theory (anatomy & pathophysiology) on stroke and the consequences for everyday nursing care. The course started with a discussion assessment based on items meeting rehabilitation needs. On the last day the students presented three Care Plans of one patient (the patient was a real life case). In this they showed all the training subjects of the whole week.
Participants as well as the coordinator of the Rehabilitation Centre and the trainer herself enjoyed the training and appreciated the outcome.
