Nursing Process
1.) assessment
2.) analysis
3.) planning
4.) implementation
5.) evaluation
assessment
gathers patient data through observation, interview, and physical assessment
analysis
the nurse analyzes, validates, and clusters patient data to identify patient problems
planning
he nurse prioritizes the nursing diagnoses and identifies goals that are realistic, measurable, and patient-focused, with specific outcomes.
implementation
- be accountable for safe practice
- perform the steps of intervention accurately
- understand why an intervention is planned
evaluation
examines the effectiveness of interventions, and decides whether the plan of care should be discontinued, continued, or revised.
nursing process key principles
- critical thinking
- patient centered care
- goal oriented tasks
- nursing intuition
nursing process is
dynamic, collaborative, outcome-oriented, organize, analytical, adaptable
CJMM
clinical judgement measurement model
CJMM Components
recognize cues, analyze cues, prioritize hypothesis, generate solutions, take action, evaluation outcomes
assessment
the systematic collection of patient data, and it is the first step in providing patient care.
holistic assessment
assess the state of a patient's physical, psychological, emotional, environmental, sociocultural, economic, and spiritual health to gain a better understanding of the patient's overall condition. This holistic approach promotes patient-centered care.
primary data
obtained directly from pt
secondary data
collected from caregivers, firends, family members, other members of health care team, & written sources
subjective data
information collected from the patient's point of view; cannot be objectively measured
Symptoms (e.g., back pain or fatigue)
Verbal
Feelings
Concerns
Perceptions
Generally gathered during an interview or health history
Documented in the medical record using quotation marks
objective data
information collected via what is seen, measured, or tested
Signs (e.g., skin rash or lump)
Observable
Generally collected from physical assessment (inspection, palpation, percussion, and auscultation), medical records, diagnostic tests, and laboratory findings
Clinical cues
"symptoms" but also more. Diet, exercise, family/health history, etc
Recognize cues
forming patterns to identify health problems, risk for problems, and level of wellness. Form diagnostic conclusions according to identified patterns that reflect patient conditions requiring nursing care.
Analyze cues
what are these signs and symptoms (analyze cues), what is the cause (hypothesis), preventing harm/ optimizing benefit
nursing diagnosis
to identify patient problems and communicate related patient needs to all members of the health care team.
Generate solutions
realistic and measurable goals, patient-centered, address the problem
- What is high priority?
- How do you optimize?
- How do we expect the patient to improve?
planning patient care
dynamic, changing as the patient's conditions or needs change
Take action
Monitoring, Educating this is disease, this is what happens, this is the drug(s) to take, how/ when to take the drug(s)
Evaluate outcomes
Was the outcome predicted?
Was the intervention successful?
Monitoring side functions for adverse effects
evalutation
1.) examine results
2.) compare achieved affect with goals & outcome
3.) recognize errors
assessment v. evaluation
The purpose of assessment is to identify patient problems, whereas the purpose of evaluation is to determine if known problems are improving, declining, or unchanged.
questions for evaluation interventions
Did the patient meet the goals and outcome criteria established during the planning phase?
Since care began, have new assessment data been identified that should be taken into consideration?
Does the care plan need to be modified in response to patient changes?
Based on the patient’s response to the implemented interventions, should the plan of care be continued, revised, or discontinued?
questions for revising care
Were the original goals realistic?
What unanticipated events occurred?
What steps in the process can be handled differently?
What barriers did the patient encounter that prevented goal attainment?
International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP)x
a standardized nursing language system used for point-of-care documentation for patient data and clinical activity. ICNP language can be used to identify diagnoses, interventions, and outcomes.
Impaired Respiratory System Function
Apnea
Aspiration
Cough

Data Analysis
- actual problem
- potential problems
establishing priorities
high importance
intermediate importance
low importance
high importance
If not addressed can result in patient harm or harm to others (e.g. ABC's airways, breathing, circulation)
intermediate importance
Nonemergent and non-life-threatening, but important to address the identified problem or to prevent complications (e.g., risk for infection)
low importance
Often focused on long-term patient needs; may not be directly linked to the patient's current condition, but can affect future well-being (e.g., chronic pain or inability to pay for medications). Note that these conditions could become a higher priority if not addressed.
SMART Goals
Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, Timed
short term
The patient will achieve effective pain relief by day of discharge.
long term
The patient will achieve pain relief without the use of pain medication within 2 weeks of surgery.
setting goals
Goals are broad statements describing desired changes in a patient's behavior, condition, or perception.
Goals should be patient-focused, realistic, and measurable.
Depending on the patient's immediate and future needs, nurses establish short- and long-term goals.
Short-term goals may be achieved in 1 week or less.
Long-term goals may extend over weeks or months.
types of nursing interventions
1.) nurse- initiated intervention
2.) health care provider initiated intervenions
3.) collaborative interventions
nurse- initiated interventions (independent)
independent nursing interventions or actions that do not require a health care provider's prescription (e.g., patient positioning and patient teaching).
health care provider initiated interventions (dependent)
dependent nursing interventions that may require a prescription from a health care provider (e.g., medication administration or catheter insertion).
collaborative interventions (interdependent)
interdependent interventions that require the combined knowledge, skill, and expertise of multiple health care providers; tasks are coordinated with members of the health care team (e.g., respiratory therapy).
Drug Development
10-15 years
ANA Code of Ethics
adopted in 1950, revised in 2015, a guide for carrying out nursing responsibilities.
Nurse's Role in Clinical Research
1) responsible for patient safety
2) responsible for integrity of the research protocol
Drug Standards & Legislation
drug standards, federal legislations, nurse practice acts, canadian drug regulation
Drug Standards
the united states pharmacopeia and the national formulary
Nurse Practice Acts
all states and territories have rules and regulation. Baseline standards of practice. Based on state some nurses may be able to do certain things others can not
Drug Scheduling
no acceptable use for schedule one drugs
Highest Risk
schedule 2, yes schedule 1, but it is not easily accessible/ used
Schedule IV
sleep drugs, also high risk
Drug names
chemical names, generic names, brand/trade names
Over the counter drugs
safe and appropriate for use without direct supervision of health care provider with correct dosing and order, as needed, usually short term use
Standardized OTC labeling
2002 FDA, consumers with better info, describes benefits and risks of OTC drugs
Nurse's Role
be aware of the OTC drugs and their implication. We ask multiple times what drugs/substances people are on
Primary purpose of federal legislation in drug standards
ensuring public safety
nursing care
direct care
indirect care
direct care
performed on or with patients, such as giving an injection or helping a patient ambulate.
indirect care
performed on behalf of patients, such as having the health care provider prescribe a special diet or arranging with a social worker to set up home care.
documentation
nurses must document all implemented nursing interventions
Proper documentation of interventions facilitates communication with all members of the health care team and provides an essential legal record. Documentation also allows nurses to evaluate the effectiveness of nursing interventions in meeting patient goals and outcomes, which is the final step in the nursing process.
Implementing the plan of care
Reassess the patient.
Review and revise the existing plan of care.
Organize resources and care delivery.
Anticipate and prevent complications.
Implement nursing interventions.
