Improving the Accuracy Rate of First Aid Operations of the Nursing Team in the Acute Ward of the Psychiatric Department.

An unpredictable emergency situation might happen due to the adverse reaction to psychoactive drug plus physiological disease problems. When a first aid incident occurs, psychiatry nurses who are inexperienced and lack confidence might have impared judgements and inefficient division of labor, which can contribute to an issue of first aid. The current analysis confirmed that task assignment is not specific, a lack of recognition of the accurate position of the first aid cart materials and standard operation procedure, and that the education training is deficient. Moreover, the restrictions of the first aid environment is also related to first aid results. This project defined the division of task assignment, developed first aid cart material pairing software, revised standard operation procedure, and conducted first aid simulation training classes. Results indicated a rise in the accuracy of first aid procedure from 63.7% to 95.6%, and the first aid procedure cognition rose from 64.89% to 92.12%. Additionally, the project increased the awareness of first aid procedure, self-confidence, and brought the team together to reduce the misstep of first aid procedure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
