  3. a. Introduction/overview of week’s goals and accomplishments*

-My goal during the last two weeks has been to develop an effective 10 question survey for dialysis patients with Central Venous Catheter to assess their level of knowledge The project is not intended to teach patients to change their own dressings on their catheters, but rather monitoring the integrity of their dressings in order to recognize when a dressing change is indicated.

-Second, I managed to set up a meeting with the unit manager to discuss the implementation of using a patient survey to assess knowledge and perception of CVC care. I mentioned that an explanation of the survey will be provided and completion of the questionnaire will be assumed to imply consent. Ethical considerations include confidentiality of individual and institutional responses being protected.

-Lastly, I began to ultize the questionnaire with a total of 9 clients thus far. Responses were being collected in hours, days or frequencies per week. Participant answers were responded to in an impartial manner, with no discussion as to the correctness of responses.

It was essential to tailor specific parts of the project to address the concerns and values related to each individual department.
