Study Notes
- Nursing is the diagnosis and treatment of human responses to health problems through the nursing process, which consists of five steps: Assessment, Nursing diagnoses, Planning, Implementation, and Evaluation.
- Assessment is the first step in the nursing process where data is collected, validated, and clustered to identify patient's strengths and limitations, and it sets the tone for the rest of the process.
- Nursing Diagnoses involve identifying actual or potential health problems and prioritizing them as actual, potential, possible, or collaborative problems, as well as wellness issues.
- Planning phase includes setting goals and outcomes, developing an individualized plan of care, determining nursing interventions needed, and communicating the plan to the patient and care team.
- Implementation is the phase where the plan is carried out through nursing interventions, with continuous assessment of patient responses and necessary modifications. Evaluation involves determining the effectiveness of the plan in meeting goals and outcomes.
