Interprofessional Collaboration (SBAR) The Original Prompt:…

Interprоfessiоnаl Cоllаborаtion (SBAR) The Original Prompt: Differentiate therapeutic vs. interprofessional communication and explain how SBAR empowers the nurse. The Day-of Twist: The Deteriorating Patient. Scenario: You are a novice nurse caring for a patient who is suddenly having difficulty breathing. You hear loud wheezing in their lungs, and their oxygen saturation has dropped to 88% on room air. You need to call the on-call physician, who is notoriously difficult to talk to and frequently hangs up on nurses. Application: Write out the exact script of what you will say into the phone using the SBAR framework for this patient. Conclude by demonstrating how you would use SBAR communication if the physician tries to brush off your concerns and refuses to come see the patient.
