Abstract

Urethral carcinoma or urethral cancer is that is located in the urethra is one of the rarest types of urological cancer. Cystectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the bladder. The condition of post operative patients is of particular concern to health workers. Most patients and families do not know about post-operative patients care while at home. Therefore, the knowledge and attitudes of patients and families regarding post-operative care are important things that need to be educated by health workers. Providing education to patients and families before returning home is called discharge planning. Based on data from October 9 to October 31, there were patients diagnosed with urethral carcinoma who were treated in the Parangtritis room at Dr. Hospital Saiful Anwar Malang. This research method uses descriptive research with a case study design. Implementation of discharge planning starts from the time the patients first come to the room until the day the patients return home. The implementation of discharge planning for patients went well. Nurses can carry out their duties as health workers in carrying out discharge planning procedures.

Abstract

Falling risk is an increased sensitivity to falling that can result in physical injury and health problems. Nurses play a crucial role in reducing the risk of falls among patients in hospitals; therefore, nurses must adhere to established fall prevention protocols. The aim of this study is to assess nurses' compliance in implementing fall prevention measures for post-operative patients in the Jepun Room of Bali Mandara Regional General Hospital. The research design used is descriptive analysis in the form of a case study, with the study population consisting of 3 nurses from the Jepun Room at Bali Mandara Regional General Hospital. This study observes nurses' compliance in implementing fall risk prevention measures for patients. Based on observations, it was found that the implementation of mild fall risk prevention measures by 3 responsible nurses achieved 100% compliance. Specifically, ensuring non-slip footwear was applied 100% on the first day, with the lowest application being 0% on day 2 and 3. Meanwhile, measures such as providing patient orientation, obtaining patient consent to keep night lights on, and ensuring walking aids are within reach (if used) were never implemented, also at 0%. Regarding moderate fall risk prevention measures by these nurses, it was found that implementation was 100%. However, the installation of fall risk signs outside patient rooms had 0% implementation. From these findings, the role of these nurses as care coordinators in implementing fall risk prevention measures for patients is crucial to prevent undesired incidents.

Abstract

Patient safety is a critical component of healthcare quality. Surgical procedures pose significant risks, with frequent incidents such as wrong-site surgeries and retained surgical instruments. To mitigate these risks, the Fourth Patient Safety Goals emphasize the correct site, correct procedure, and correct surgical patient. Nurses, who are involved in every stage of surgical care, play a vital role in ensuring of the correct site, procedure, and surgical patient. The objective of this research is to analyze and identify the role of nurses in implementing the Fourth Patient Safety Goal, specifically in ensuring the correct site, procedure, and patient in surgical settings. This study employed a literature review method using databases including Google Scholar, PubMed, and Science Direct. A total of 11 articles published between 2024 and 2025 were selected using inclusion and exclusion criteria based on the PICO(S) approach. Article quality was assessed using JBI Appraisal Tools. The findings show that nurses contribute significantly to all three phases of the Surgical Safety Checklist (sign in, time out, sign out). Their roles include verifying surgical information, ensuring team communication, providing emotional support for patients, coordinating interdisciplinary collaboration, and integrating technology-based tools. Barriers identified include lack of training, incomplete documentation, and limited compliance with protocols. Nurses play a central role in ensuring the correct site, procedure, and surgical patient. Strengthening their competence, fostering interprofessional collaboration, and applying technological innovations are essential strategies to enhance patient safety in surgical settings.
