Care coordination is the process of overseeing a patient’s medical care to make sure that every part of the healthcare system is operating as efficiently as possible to deliver the best possible care and results for the patient. This entails organizing every aspect of the patient’s care, from making appointments to speaking with the patient’s medical team. Which makes sure that all services are delivered on time and efficiently. Communication between all of the patient’s physicians is made easier by care coordination, allowing for the sharing of medical information and the timely and proper implementation of any modifications or updates to the patient’s care plan (Droz et al., 2019).
Nurses are the first line of defense in recognizing and treating possible health risks and issues. Moreover, nurses are essential in educating patients about correct disease treatment, preventative care, and health maintenance, helping them to live healthier, more active lives. They frequently act as patient advocates, making sure that their needs and rights are addressed (Swan et al., 2019). Similarly, patients are more capable of making wise decisions about their health when they are provided with the relevant resources. This evaluation offers the chance to do literature reviews and apply data to support the best teaching, learning, and communication techniques required for cardiac patients with high blood pressure.
Patient-Centered Health Interventions and Timelines
Cardiac patients with the medical condition of high blood pressure commonly have issues with diet and nutrition, physical activity, and stress or anxiety (Schultchen et al., 2019). Diet and nutrition are crucial for cardiac patients with high blood pressure. A tailored nutrition plan comprising advice on healthy eating, portion control, and salt intake monitoring is given to cardiac patients with high blood pressure as an intervention toward this goal. Community resources include nearby dietitians, nutrition education programs provided by community centers or hospitals, and websites with information on healthy eating (Zhou et al., 2021). This intervention should be completed in one week.
