Establishing The Role Of The Clinical Nurse Specialist For The Older Adult In A Model 2 Hospital
Background On average 87.5% of inpatients in our Model-2 Hospital are aged sixty-five years or above. Equally 57.5% of inpatients have medium to maximum dependency care needs. In order to meet the needs of this cohort of patients a new post “Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) For The Older Adult” was established in September 2023. Methods Using an online referral system, criteria for referral included i) new onset confusion or delirium, ii) clinical frailty score (CFS) of six or greater, iii) known Parkinson’s disease and iv) nursing or medical team clinical judgement. All reviewed patients received a comprehensive geriatric assessment using the Geriatric 5M framework (Mobility, Medications, Multi-Complexities, Mind and Matters Most) ensuring all aspects of patient care were assessed and promoting timely input from our multi-disciplinary team (Physiotherapy, Dietitian, Speech and Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Pharmacy). Results Over a period of 207 days the newly established CNS service received a total of 317 referrals. Two thirds (n=206, 65%) received CNS review, one third (n=111, 35%) did not; 45 (14%) were under the care of a consultant Geriatrician and not reviewed to avoid duplication and 66 (21%) were discharged before review could occur. Conclusion Referral numbers received since the established of the CNS post emphasises the need for the service in our hospital inpatient population. Development of the post has ensured that two-in-three referred patients receive a CNS lead CGA. Results from this pilot highlights the need to further develop and expand the service to target the one-in-five who missed review and further extension of the referral criteria.
