Pre-visit Planning in the Community Health Setting Using Connectivism Learning

Sonja Watford

On average, a patient healthcare appointment lasts about 121 minutes. Fifty percent of their healthcare appointment will be spent waiting for care or filling out forms. Much of this can be done using a pre-visit planning session, saving time thus and allowing the patient more time with the health care team during the actual visits. An educational innovation aimed at nurses in a community health setting on how to provide pre-visit planning was developed grounded in the connectivism learning theory. A flipped-classroom approach was presented, resulting in the clinical staff efficiently implementing pre-visit planning in the everyday workflow.
