Prepare a 5-slide PowerPoint presentation about the potential use of coaching as an approach that could be employed when working with a junior who makes an error.

Your Assessment Brief

You have been asked as part of a job interview to prepare a 5-slide PowerPoint presentation about the potential use of coaching as an approach that could be employed when working with a junior who makes an error (see your field scenario below). Your presentation must be supported with a robust evidence base, which you must cite throughout. The references used in your presentation are to be provided on slide 5 using the Harvard Referencing format.
Your Overarching Scenario
A first-year student nurse shows a lack of knowledge about the management of a patient’s condition.

Field Specific Scenario

Adult

Gladys has been admitted to a medical ward with congestive cardiac failure and is on restricted fluids (1500mls per day).
A 1st year student nurse has refilled the 1 litre water jug at Gladys’s bedside.

Mental Health
Sonia is on a mental health acute admission ward due to depression.
A 1st year student nurse says, ‘Sonia is very attention seeking, I think we should ignore her.’

Child and Young Person

Thomas aged 12 attends the Paediatric Emergency Department (PED) he is reporting neck pain and pins and needles in his legs following a fall from a height.
A 1st year student nurse asks the boy to take a seat in the waiting area

Learning Disabilities
Robert is a 32-year-old man with Down’s Syndrome. He is being treated for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disorder (GERD) in the community. He experiences the symptoms of reflux after eating a meal
A 1st year student nurse has recommended that he lays down to ease the symptoms.

Learning Outcomes:

Subject-specific Knowledge, Understanding & Application

LO b) Evaluate self and situational awareness of decisions and actions to deliver constructive feedback to change behaviour
LO c) Evaluate a range of effective communication formats and styles as an effective confident and collaborative communicator
LO d) Apply complex knowledge of the human sciences applied to commonly encountered health conditions and relevant high-quality nursing interventions relevant to chosen field.

Guidance to meet the Learning Outcomes

LO d) Apply complex knowledge of the human sciences applied to commonly encountered health conditions and relevant high-quality nursing interventions relevant to chosen field.

In your presentation you need to demonstrate an in-depth understanding of the implications of the error.
Appropriate intervention/s based on the patient’s history and evidence

Consider how will you: in relation to your field

Mental Health Guidance [LO d]

You must demonstrate your critical evaluation of your knowledge of depression and appropriate high-quality nursing interventions.
Adult Guidance [LO d]

You must demonstrate your critical evaluation of your knowledge of the associated pathophysiology of congestive cardiac failure and appropriate high-quality nursing interventions.

Child and Young Person Guidance [LO d]

You must demonstrate your critical evaluation of your knowledge of Muscular Skeletal Trauma management and appropriate high-quality nursing interventions.

Learning Disabilities Guidance [LO d]

You must demonstrate your critical evaluation of your knowledge of GI tract and appropriate high-quality nursing interventions.
Consider how you will discuss and cite the evidence base to support what you are saying.

LO b) Evaluate self and situational awareness of decisions and actions to deliver constructive feedback to change behaviour

Consider how will you:

Critically examine the principles of coaching in your field specific scenario, and how you would continue to work to support this junior member of staff.

What do you need to consider when giving feedback to the student? For example the environment and why is this important

An understanding of different approaches to supporting students.

An explanation of a coaching model.

Critically examine the principles in a coaching relationship.

How will you manage the coaching interaction with justification of your approach?

Discuss and cite the evidence base that supports the rationale for choosing a coaching approach.

LO c) Evaluate a range of effective communication formats and styles as an effective confident and collaborative communicator

Consider how will you:

Critically analyse approaches which could be used when having a conversation about the issue with the junior and communicate these effectively within your presentation.

You may want to consider a range of appropriate facilitative skills with examples where appropriate.

Discuss and cite the evidence base that supports the rationale for choosing this interactive approach.
