    Study Notes

    The Nursing Process: A Systematic Approach to Nursing Care

    • The nursing process serves as the organizational framework for nursing practice.
    • It is a systematic method that enables nurses to plan and provide care.
    • The nursing process uses a problem-solving approach to identify health problems and potential problems.
    • The nursing process consists of five components: assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation (ADPIE).
    • Assessment involves gathering data from the client, as well as other sources such as physical assessments, medical history, and test results.
    • Nursing diagnosis is determined after analyzing the collected data and involves identifying actual or potential health problems that can be addressed through nursing interventions.
    • The NANDA-I diagnosis list, published every 2 years, provides standardized nursing diagnoses based on evidence-based practices.
    • Planning involves setting goals for the client and developing nursing interventions to achieve those goals.
    • Goals can be short-term or long-term and should be specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and timely (SMART).
    • Implementation is the phase where the established plan is put into action, including performing nursing interventions and documenting care.
    • Nursing interventions can be independent (nursing orders) or dependent (prescribed orders from a healthcare provider).
    • Evaluation involves determining the client's progress towards goal achievement and the effectiveness of the nursing care plan. If goals are not met, a new care plan must be generated.
