Several difficulties arise in executing comprehensive psychosocial support programs into practice. These difficulties include the stigma surrounding mental health, reluctance to adapt, and a lack of resources. To destigmatize mental health issues, the organization should start educational awareness campaigns that emphasize the value of mental health in people with chronic kidney disease (Shahwan et al., 2022). Similarly, we can foster effective interprofessional cooperation and the gradual introduction of psychosocial services to combat resistance among interprofessional teams.
This action guarantees effective task delegation, preventing staff from overburdening and encouraging participation. Furthermore, integrating services gradually motivates patients to improve quality by increasing their knowledge about the advantages of mental health support. Lastly, resource limitations can be addressed by leveraging existing resources, coordinating with external stakeholders, and implementing telehealth services to broaden the program’s scope and optimize resource utilization.
Interprofessional Team Benefits
Interprofessional collaboration and teamwork are essential for implementing successful change management within the healthcare organization, enhancing the effectiveness of the QI initiatives. An integral aspect of this collaboration is effective communication. Through clear and accessible communication lines within the teams, patients’ information is transferred without communication gaps, ensuring appropriate and holistic decision-making (Robinson, 2020). Moreover, influential teamwork guarantees that team members operate on shared goals. These objectives are imperative to provide equitable care without discrimination, improve care quality, and create healthcare accessible. Eventually, preserving patient safety and producing desired goals of the change implementation plan – improve quality of life and provide adequate psychosocial support. This analysis assumes that the interprofessional team is ready to adapt and implement new protocols and that the organization’s stakeholders are well-prepared to manage staff workload and provide fringe benefits for additional responsibilities.
Overall Project Benefits
In conclusion, the overall benefits of the project are to reduce CKD-related depressive symptoms and stressful events for patients undergoing re-hospitalization and long-term hemodialysis treatment. This poster presentation’s professional and scholarly resources recommend comprehensive psychosocial support programs to improve quality of life scores and provide adequate psychosocial assistance. The program components include peer mentoring, support groups, and educational interventions. These programs offer multifaceted benefits to CKD patients. By integrating mental health services into care, this change implementation enhances patients’ stress coping and improves emotional well-being and adherence to treatment plans. Overall, these programs contribute to a holistic patient-centered approach, enhancing the quality of life, reducing the psychosocial burden, and promoting better long-term outcomes for CKD patients.
