Introduction CarePlus- a NZ chronic care initiative
Funding for extra primary care visits
Aims to improve chronic care management, primary health care teamwork and reduce health inequalities (MoH, 2004)
Focus on education, self-management and linkage with related chronic care programmes
Department of Primary Health Care and General PracticeUniversity of Otago – Wellington – New Zealand
Research Aim
Develop a practical and theoretical understanding of what the patient understands the nursing contribution to be in a NZ chronic care programme (CarePlus)
To ascertain from patients those elements of the overall nursing contribution they find helpful and why
Department of Primary Health Care and General PracticeUniversity of Otago – Wellington – New Zealand
Background: the literature Limited literature on patient perception of nursing
contribution particularly in primary care
Gaps in literature around how patients perceive the role of nurses in long-term conditions programmes
Most of the literature on patient perception:-Older-Secondary care based-Physician based-Nurse specialist/Case management
Department of Primary Health Care and General PracticeUniversity of Otago – Wellington – New Zealand

al.,2005; Patterson & Britten, 2000; Phillips et al., 2007; Wiles, 1997; Wright, et al., 2007).

What the participants said about ‘coaching’They just went through everything within the first day. But not too much, because … she could see that I was … a bit dazed and confused, and going, "Oh my God, this is too much information." So that's why they had me back every day for the week and a bit, to make sure that I was understanding what was going on.

What the participants said about ‘interpersonal communication’
I probably talk to the nurse about more things… And then when you talk to the doctor…about specific things… the nurse is probably more general, and then if there's any problems that she sees, then that's what I would talk to the doctor about [the problems].

We're going to look at weight first…She thought this was a good way to start things, and… then we can look at other things…I thought it was a good idea… because every time I'm going to get weighed, I'm going, "God, I haven't lost anything. I haven't put anything on." I says, "My God, but I know I'm overweight."

What the participants said about ‘self management support’
I've been trying … to weigh myself every Saturday morning, before breakfast. I've started doing that again … I bought myself a new set of scales, so that I can read them properly, so that's made a big difference, because I just had a set of scales with a clock sort of thing, and they were hopeless. So I bought myself a digital pair. Now I really know whether I'm going up or down.(Participant 8: 64 years old, New Zealand European Female, 12 Months Registered, Type 2 Diabetes/Arthritis).
Department of Primary Health Care and General PracticeUniversity of Otago – Wellington – New Zealand
What does this mean for general practice?
Patients limited understanding of CarePlus
Overall: Patients feel “guided” through the
management of their long term conditions;
Patients perceive the nurse works with them (intentionally) to determine what they take to the doctor.
Department of Primary Health Care and General PracticeUniversity of Otago – Wellington – New Zealand
So what does this mean about the nursing contribution? Deficit in technical support Accessibility and sustained contact with
knowledgeable nurses with social and emotional skill
Lifestyle advice and interpersonal communications Relational continuity important Variation in delivery
Department of Primary Health Care and General PracticeUniversity of Otago – Wellington – New Zealand
Limitations Project small and in one geographic location Those who chose not to participate may have
different thoughts about the nursing contribution Data collected from single point in time Favorable perceptions cannot be linked to
improved patient health outcomes Participants all English speaking Data collection by nurse Limited literature on the actual nursing
interventions in chronic conditions management
Department of Primary Health Care and General PracticeUniversity of Otago – Wellington – New Zealand
Recommendations Review how general practice explains benefit of
CarePlus/frequency of follow up Enhance intentional patient centered goal setting
and care planning Development of nursing competency and
capability Protocol for follow up and discharge of patients Patient advisory
Department of Primary Health Care and General PracticeUniversity of Otago – Wellington – New Zealand
Playing the advantage EIT evaluation of Nurse Healthy Lifestyle Clinics Purposeful and deliberate nursing consultation by:
NursePoint Seminar Series; Development of suite of assessment tools; Nurse sensitive patient outcomes (DRINFO); Structured supported self management; Clinical supervision; Nursing workforce development steering group
HBDHB Long Term Conditions-Nursing Workforce Development funding/CarePlus reserves.
Department of Primary Health Care and General PracticeUniversity of Otago – Wellington – New Zealand
Conclusion Establish what patients value and why; Patient understanding of CarePlus is limited; Patient motivation to engage; Opportunities for nursing development: e.g. sleep, mental
health, and pain; Patient world view vs: disease screening and monitoring; Nurses need clinical skills to plan for right care and
communication skills for relational continuity Patient increased confidence-especially when service is
recommended; Patient preference with specialist need Function of careplan questionable
