Abstract

Tonsillitis, especially among hospitalized children, can cause worse impacts or complications. Dynamic, planned, and patient-centered nursing care is needed, which can be done by implementing discharge planning. This study aimed to analyze and evaluate the implementation of discharge planning among hospitalized children with tonsillitis. A case study method involving one patient and his family in the pediatric inpatient room; was carried out from April 3 to 6, 2022. The results of this study show that the implementation of discharge planning has been carried out following the theory. Discharge planning is carried out when the patient enters until the patient returns with stages assessment to evaluation; besides that, from the implementation of discharge planning, there is an increase in parents' knowledge about disease and skills about the importance of a healthy lifestyle and nutrition/dietary pattern in children. This study concludes that discharge planning is important in providing nursing care because it can increase independence, knowledge, and skills in healing and maintain the patient's health status. It was needed for a more detailed discharge planning assessment format because this study only includes studies that focus on tonsillitis patients and are linked to theory. If it is implemented on patients with different diagnoses, it is necessary to update the assessment format.

Abstract

Discharge planning is essential for providing special education or training to patients and their families when a patient is admitted to the hospital and prepares for discharge. It is a crucial part of nursing care that requires collaboration across multiple disciplines. The goal of discharge planning is to facilitate communication between nurses and patients, enabling the provision of procedures for managing and preventing diseases at home. Typhoid fever, an endemic infectious disease, necessitates continued care and treatment. The ability of nurses to effectively implement discharge planning significantly enhances families' understanding and capacity to care for patients with typhoid fever. This study analyzes the implementation of discharge planning for patients with typhoid fever at Treatment Room D of Kaliwates General Hospital in Jember. This case report examines the discharge planning process for these patients. To assess changes in understanding disease prevention, the study measured patients' knowledge before and after implementing discharge planning using a questionnaire on understanding typhoid disease. The results indicate that implementing discharge planning effectively improves patients' understanding of disease prevention related to typhoid fever. Before discharge planning was instituted, patients scored an average of 50% on the pretest regarding their knowledge. After the discharge planning was carried out, the posttest score increased to 90%. This demonstrates that providing discharge planning to families and patients significantly enhances their knowledge about typhoid fever.
