Nurse practitioners utilize curbside consultation, an interprofessional collaboration communication process in which one clinician seeks advice from another, in clinical decision-making practices. Nevertheless, this process is not well-understood. A qualitative design with individual open-ended interviews was used to explore the phenomenon of curbside consultation among nurse practitioners for clinical decision-making. Twenty primary care and specialty nurse practitioners participated. Participants were recruited via purposive sampling from in-patient and out-patient settings in order to reach saturation of themes. Using inductive content analyses, the findings revealed that nurse practitioners made multiple decisions in the course of information-seeking and its application during the curbside consultation process. Motivated by the patient's best interest, nurse practitioners provided advice in the curbside consultation exchange and sought answers to questions encountered in clinical decision-making. Multiple resources were often utilized with curbside consultation frequently evolving into formal consultation. Dynamics of curbside consultation included (a)synchronous approaches including text, e-mail, telephone, or face-to-face processes. Once information was received, nurse practitioners decided whether they (dis)agreed with advice and if validation was necessary. Nurse practitioners utilized curbside consultation for clinical decision-making and means for interprofessional collaboration, thereby increasing clinical competency and promoting quality patient outcomes. Implications of curbside consultation for education and practice require further exploration to enhance outcomes of curbside consultation processes. |
