Individual appointments are designed to discover what each patient needs to learn regarding their Coumadin treatment.
Information provided includes:
Patients are encouraged to bring family members to their appointments at the Coumadin department so they can ask questions as well as provide support to the patients.
Educational displays and posters serve as visual demonstrations to help patients understand the disease process and how Coumadin can help in treatment. Education materials and practice tools are also provided for patients to keep for long-term self-reference.
Throughout the course of their appointments, patients are encouraged to write down their questions to discuss at their next appointment or to call the nurse clinician whenever they have a more urgent concern.
