ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND & PROBLEMS Early detection tests are highly effective in helping adult women prevent the onset of cervical cancer. However, the cervical Pap smear screening rate in a health management center was only 54.3% in 2020. PURPOSE:
This project was developed to improve the Pap smear screening rate for cervical cancer in a health management center. RESOLUTION The strategies developed included revising the health examination lists, developing an online appointment booking system, designing a patient decision aid, creating a standardized simulation moulage for education, and rechecking patient's National Health Insurance cards.RESULTS:
After implementation of these strategies, the Pap smear screening rate for cervical cancer rose from 54.3% to 81.2%. The screening rate at the health management center in 2022 reached 96.6%.CONCLUSIONS:
Shared decision-making can elucidate the comprehensive options available to clients and support them in considering their options and achieving informed choices regarding Pap smear preferences.Palabras clave
