Abstract

Introduction: Educating mother plays vital role in the promotion of health, prevention of possible complications, and improving children's quality of life. The Ministry of Health in Iran has taken notice of this issue and replaced the old assessment model with the accreditation model in medical centers since 2010. This study aims at the determinating and making comparison between the education provided to mothers at the time of discharge and its documentation based on Iran's accreditation standards in pediatric wards. Methods: In this paper, 231 mothers being discharged with their children were selected in the teaching hospitals affiliated with Isfahan University of Medical Sciences in Iran to undergo a descriptive-analytical study. A questionnaire and a checklist were utilized for the evaluation and documentation of education respectively. Data was analyzed using descriptive- analytical statistics and SPSS 16. Results: The results showed that the mean score of the documented education in children's files was significantly lower than the accreditation standards in all three areas of education (medications, nutrition and medical - nursing care at home) (P < 0.001).The total mean score of the actual education was significantly higher than the total mean score of the documented education (P < 0.001). Discussion: Results demonstrate educating mothers to have been inconsistent with the documentation thereof, in spite of the fact that all mothers had been educated at the time of discharge, perhaps due to lack of time, the overwhelming amount of documentation to be carried out, insufficient manpower, in addition to exhaustion as a result of a heavy workload. Therefore, it can be suggested that more focus needs to be placed upon resolving this issue. © 2018 Medknow. All rights reserved.
