New research demonstrates that home health nurses proceed through a three-stage process to become successful and autonomous in their practice. It also indicates that they must be adaptable in order to function effectively and successfully in home care. This research has many implications for clinicians, managers, and administrators.

Development of a Managed-Care Team in a Traditional Home Healthcare Agency

JONA The Journal of Nursing Administration (1997)

Nancy L. Brown Leslie Jean Neal

Increasing numbers of home health clients have managed-care insurance plans. Issues related to the care of these clients in the home are different from those that relate to the care of Medicare clients. The Visiting Nurse Association (VNA) of Northern Virginia developed a managed-care team whose staff is trained to work effectively and efficiently with managed-care companies while maintaining a goal of quality care. The evolution of the managed-care team concept is described and offered as a model for other traditional home health agencies. Critical success factors for implementing a dedicated managed-care team are defined. Speculation about the future of the VNA's managed-care team and the implications for nursing and home healthcare of the managed-care team concept are discussed.

IS Anybody Home

Home Healthcare Nurse (1997)

Leslie Jean Neal

Clients with strokes, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, brain injury, or other conditions that are neurologic in origin abound in home care. Other clients may have neurologic deficits that are not so obvious. This article describes basic neurologic assessment and how it can be performed in the home setting with minimal inconvenience to the client and the nurse. Using a catchy mnemonic, the home care nurse can ensure that valuable information is obtained during the visit.
