Propose an evidence-based plan to improve the outcomes the patient in the provided case study, and examine how remote collaboration provided benefits or challenges to designing and delivering the care.
Introduction
As technologies and the health care industry continue to evolve, remote care, diagnosis, and collaboration are becoming increasingly more regular methods by which nurses are expected to work. Learning the ways in which evidence-based models and care can help remote work produce better outcomes will become critical for success. Additionally, understanding how to leverage EBP principles in collaboration will be important in the success of institutions delivering quality, safe, and cost-effective care. It could also lead to better job satisfaction for those engaging in remote collaboration.
Professional Context
Remote care and diagnosis is a continuing and increasingly important method for nurses to help deliver care to patients to promote safety and enhance health outcomes. Understanding best EBPs and building competence in delivering nursing care to remote patients is a key competency for all nurses. Additionally, in some scenarios, while you may be delivering care in person you may be collaborating with a physician or other team members who are remote. Understanding the benefits and challenges of interdisciplinary collaboration is vital to developing effective communication strategies when coordinating care. So, being proficient at communicating and working with remote health care team members is also critical to delivering quality, evidence-base care.
Preparation
Before beginning this assessment, it would be helpful to review the following media activity to examine another example of remote collaboration:
You may also wish to review Selecting a model for evidence-based practice changes. [PDF] and Evidence-Based Practice Models, which help explain the various evidence-based nursing models.
Scenario

Instructions
For this assessment, you are a presenter! You will create a 5–10-minute video using Kaltura or similar software. In the video:
- Propose an evidence-based care plan that you believe will improve the safety and outcomes of the patient in the case study presented in the Assessment 04 Supplement: Remote Collaboration and Evidence-Based Care [PDF] Download Assessment 04 Supplement: Remote Collaboration and Evidence-Based Care [PDF]resource. Add your thoughts on what more could be done for the patient and what more information may have been needed.
- Discuss the ways in which an EBP model and relevant evidence helped you to develop and make decisions about the plan you proposed
- Wrap up your video by identifying the benefits of the remote collaboration in the scenario, as well as discuss strategies you found in the literature or best practices that could help mitigate or overcome one or more of the collaboration challenges you observed in the scenario.
Be sure you mention any articles, authors, and other relevant sources of evidence that helped inform your video. Discuss why these sources of evidence are credible and relevant. Important: You are required to submit an APA-formatted reference list of the sources you cited specifically in your video or used to inform your presentation. You are required to submit a narrative of all your video content to this assessment and to SafeAssign.
The following media is an example learner submission in which the speaker successfully addresses all competencies in the assessment.
- Exemplar Kaltura Reflection.
- Please note that the scenario that the speaker discusses in the exemplar is different from the Vila Health scenario you should be addressing in your video. So, the type of communication expected is being model, but the details related to the scenario in your submission will be different.
Make sure that your video addresses the following grading criteria:
- Propose your own evidence-based care plan to improve the safety and outcomes for a patient in the provided case study.
- Explain the ways in which you used an EBP model to help develop your plan of care for the client.
- Reflect on which evidence you found in your search that was most relevant and useful when making decisions regarding your care plan.
- Identify benefits and strategies to mitigate the challenges of interdisciplinary collaboration to plan care within the context of a remote team.
- Communicate in a professional manner that is easily audible and uses proper grammar, including a reference list formatted in current APA style.
Refer to Using Kaltura as needed to record and upload your video.

Assessment 04 –
Remote Collaboration and Evidence-Based Care Create a 5-10 minute video of yourself, as a presenter, in which you will propose an evidence- based plan to improve the outcomes the patient in the provided case study below, and examine how remote collaboration provided benefits or challenges to designing and delivering the care. Before you complete the instructions detailed in the courseroom, first review the case study below. INTRODUCTION Gender dysphoria is a medical condition that occurs when there is a conflict between the sex assigned at birth and the gender with which an individual identifies. To provide quality care to patients with gender dysphoria who live in rural settings or have difficulty with transportation to a care site, healthcare professionals must sometimes collaborate with other professionals in different zip codes or time zones. This case study will observe how healthcare professionals collaborate remotely and virtually to provide care for a patient with gender dysphoria. PATIENT INFORMATION The patient is a 25-year-old transgender male who lives in a rural area and has limited access to healthcare services. He was diagnosed with gender dysphoria based on a behavioral health evaluation conducted by his healthcare provider. The patient has expressed interest in receiving hormonal and surgical treatment for gender dysphoria. COLLABORATION PROCESS The patient’s healthcare provider, Dr. Smith, collaborated remotely with a team of experienced experts, including mental health professionals, endocrinologists, nurses, and surgeons, to provide evidence-based care for gender dysphoria.
• Dr. Smith: “Hello, everyone. Thank you for joining me today to discuss the care of our patient with gender dysphoria. I have reviewed the patient’s medical records and conducted a behavioral health evaluation. Based on my assessment, I believe that the patient would benefit from hormonal and surgical treatment. However, I would like to hear your thoughts and recommendations on the best course of action.”
• Mental Health Professional: “Thank you, Dr. Smith. I have reviewed the patient’s psychiatric evaluation and agree that the patient would benefit from hormonal and surgical treatment. However, I recommend that we conduct a more in-depth evaluation to exclude other conditions that might mimic gender dysphoria.”
2
• Endocrinologist: “I agree with the mental health professional. We should conduct a more in-depth evaluation to confirm the diagnosis of gender dysphoria and exclude other conditions. Once we have confirmed the diagnosis, we can discuss the best hormonal treatment options for the patient.”
• Nurse: “I concur with the mental health professional and endocrinologist. We should conduct a more in-depth evaluation to confirm the diagnosis of gender dysphoria and exclude other conditions. Once we have confirmed the diagnosis, we can discuss the best surgical treatment options for the patient with our local surgeon.”
• Dr. Smith: “Thank you for your input. I will schedule a more in-depth evaluation to confirm the diagnosis of gender dysphoria and exclude other conditions. Once we have confirmed the diagnosis, we can discuss the best treatment options for the patient.”
Consider additional consultations that might be necessary as you develop your plan of care for this patient.
