Patient and Family Centered Care in Perianesthesia
Arena:
WELCOME AND COME ON IN!
Describe and discuss patient and family centered care in the perianesthesia setting
Discuss approaches to encourage staff and promote patient and family centered care
Identify opportunities to improve Patient and Family Centered Care by describing missed circumstances and successful patient stories
Objectives
Patient and family centered care is an approach to the planning, delivery, and evaluation of health care that is grounded in mutually beneficial partnerships among health care providers, patients, and families. It redefines the relationships in health care
(Institute for Patient and Family Centered Care,n.d.).
DEFINITION:
Patient and family centered care is an approach to health care that shapes policies, programs, facility design and staff day-to-day interactions. It leads to better health outcomes and wiser allocation of resources, and greater patient and family satisfaction
(Institute for Patient and Family Centered Care,n.d.).
DEFINITION
Respect and dignity. Health care practitioners listen to and honor patient and family perspectives and choices. Patient and family knowledge, values, beliefs and cultural backgrounds are incorporated into the planning and delivery of care.
Core Concepts
Information Sharing. Health care practitioners communicate and share complete and unbiased information with patients and families in ways that are affirming and useful. Patients and families receive timely, complete, and accurate information in order to effectively participate in care and decision-making.
Core Concepts
Participation. Patients and families are encouraged and supported in participating in care and decision-making at the level they choose
Core Concepts
Collaboration. Patients and families are also included on an institution-wide basis. Health care leaders collaborate with patients and families in policy and program development, implementation, and evaluation; in health care facility design; and in professional education, as well as in the delivery of care.
Core Concepts
Family
“The word "family" refers to two or more persons who are related in any way—biologically, legally, or emotionally. Patients and families define their families.”
“In the patient- and family-centered approach, the definition of family, as well as the degree of the family's involvement in health care, is determined by the patient, provided that he or she is developmentally mature and competent to do so. The term "family-centered" is in no way intended to remove control from patients who are competent to make decisions concerning their own health care. In pediatrics, particularly with infants and young children, family members are defined by the patient's parents or guardians.”

Family
A Definition of Family:
“Families are big, small, extended, nuclear, multi-generational, with one parent, two parents, and grandparents. Living under one roof or many, a family can be as temporary as a few weeks and as permanent as forever. We become part of a family by birth, adoption, marriage, or from a desire for mutual support. A family is a culture unto itself with different values and unique ways of realizing its dreams. Together, our families become the source of our rich cultural heritage and spiritual diversity. Our families create our neighborhoods, communities, cities, states, and our nations.” ( Christiana Care Health System, PFCC Sharepoint)
Family
Definitions of Family Cont…,
“When the patient can communicate, the ideal definition of family is whomever the patient defines as her or his family. When the patient is unable to communicate, a practical definition of family is anyone who shares a history and a future with the patient.”
( 2012-2014 Perianesthesia Nursing Standards and Recommendations)
Family
Pre-op phase~ 1.Pt is informed that family member may visit in
immediate post op phase; 2.Asked if they would prefer visit and whom would
like to visit; 3.The designated family member receives info about
PACU environment and expected behavior of visitors 4. If the family member accepts the invitation to
visit, they are told to wait for contact by PACU staff at appropriate time
(pg. 63 of Perianesthesia Standards etc., 2012- 2014)
ASPAN Practice Recommendation
Induction~ 1. Widely accepted and expected by many
parents 2. Premedication effective in reducing child
anxiety in some cases
(pg. 63-64 of Perianesthesia Nursing Standards etc., 2012-2014)
ASPAN Practice Recommendation
Postoperative Phase ~ 1. Appropriateness of family visitation is based on pt
status/pt wishes/activity of unit/nurse ability to provide time with pt and family member
2. Primary nurse available to answer appropriate family questions and reassure patient and family members
3. Termination of visitation is at discretion of primary nurse and based upon patient/visitor/unit circumstances
(Pg. 64 of Perianesthesia Standards etc., 2012-2014)
ASPAN Practice Recommendation
Evaluation Phase ~ 1. Evaluation of the visitation practice begins when
visitors arrive in PACU and lasts until postoperative phone calls are made to ambulatory patients or when patients are assessed for satisfaction related to visitation
2. Visitation guidelines should be re-evaluated per institution policy
3. It is helpful to have posted unit guidelines that specify expectations concerning family care.
(Pg. 65 of Perianesthesia Standards etc., 2012-2014)
ASPAN Practice Recommendation
Family visitation in PACU first surfaced in mid 1980’s aligning with similar issues facing other specialty units
Nurses personal experiences forced them to consider the traditional visitation policy of their unit
One study in the late 1990’s showed that 89% of patients and 96% of families thought family presence was beneficial.

Post-op phase: Most hospitals have a policy to allow parents in PACU Utilizing parental presence, distraction, instruction of
coping skills are associated with less distress Studies show pain management and recovery at home
is less than optimal

Staff preferences and family preferences:
Units that supported open visitation had increased job satisfaction of their nurses
Study showed close family member preferred one single visit with verbal updates while distant family member preferred verbal update only

Randomized control trial (RCT) evaluated impact of PACU visitation on anxiety levels of the family members, using a pre and post test design, and a convenience sample at a 400 bed community hospital
