  Contact Tracing with SBAR Assignment Instructions PurposeThe purpose of the COVID-19 Contact Tracing is to provide a learning opportunity thatillustrates the impact of COVID-19 on the communities and vulnerable populations. Thestudent will be assigned a contact tracing case study to review. It is the student’sresponsibility to identify the patient’s needs and then write a SBAR for the communityhealth nurse focusing on increasing health outcomes to stop the spread of COVID-19.The SBAR should demonstrate the student’s knowledge of your case study, andpatient’s individual needs because of COVID-19 and then be a patient advocate.Objectives1. Explore current COVID-19 data across the Commonwealth of Virginia notingtrends and restrictions.2. Describe social, financial, physical and self-care effects of the COVID-19pandemic on individuals, groups, and families.3.

You receive notice that the Virginia Department of Health needs volunteers tohelp with contact tracing. As a nursing student you are being asked to supportyour contact tracing at a free-standing clinic by reviewing one potential COVID-19 patient exposure case. There are four telephone interviews with COVID-19-exposed patients that have already been conducted. You have been assignedone case study to review. You will apply what you have learned to your assignedcontract tracing case study to write an SBAR report to help stop the spread of COVID-19. This information will be given to the Community Health Nurse forfollow up.2. What is Contact Tracing and why is it necessary?o Now that you are ready to apply your knowledge of COVID-19, use thislink to go to the below website to learn more about contact tracing beforeyou start your case review.o Resources for Contact Tracing▪ Virginia Health Department direct link:https://www.vdh.virginia.gov/coronavirus/prevention-tips/contact-tracing/#CTprocess▪ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention COVID-19 ContactTracing Communication Toolkit for Health Departmentsdirect link: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/php/contact-tracing-comms.html3.
