Significance
To promote participation of UM
Senior Nursing Students in the
Community Amputee Network (U-
CAN) support group utilizing the
PFCC Model
• PFCC is an innovative approach to
planning, delivery and evaluation of
health care grounded in mutually
beneficial partnerships among health
care providers, patients and families.
• PFCC concepts are information
sharing, dignity and respect,
participation and collaboration
• PFCC is applicable to all ages and can
be practiced in any health care setting.
• Nursing students can be involved in
outpatient support groups to provide
valuable resources and support to
patients and their families while
learning the concepts of PFCC beyond
the scope of hospitalization
UM Senior Nursing Students facilitated two
amputee support group meetings providing
health care screening, patient and family
education and a sense of community support.
Nursing students prepared patient education information
related to heart health including diet and exercise, shared
recipe's with a cooking demonstration, screened
knowledge and blood pressures, and promoted lively
discussion and involvement by support group members.
• Support group members shared their
perceptions with the nursing students of
helpful nursing behaviors which promote
lifestyle acceptance and adaptation to
having an amputation.
• This exploratory project found mutually
experienced satisfaction and learning
occurred as a result of this experience.
• Students learned that listening to the
patient’s story helped to individualize the
plan for home, and mutual goal setting
results in a better transition.
Further study is warranted to measure the
benefits to nursing students, patients and
their family members of student involvement
in PFCC support groups.
