The nursing process is a systematic decision-making method focusing on identifying and treating responses of individuals or groups to actual or potential alterations in health it-i is the essential core of nursing practice to deliver holistic, patient-focused care. Nursing process provides an organizing framework for the practice of nursing and the knowledge, judgments, and actions that nurses bring to patient care.” Background and History The term nursing process was introduced in 1955 by Lydia Hall who identified three steps of nursing process as: (1) observation, (2) administration of care and (3) validation. Hall viewed nursing as the three C’s: Core, Care and Cure. The core is the patient receiving nursing care. Goals are set by the patient rather than by any other person according to his or her feelings and values. Care is focused on performing the task of nurturing patients including comfort measures, patient instruction, and helping the patient meet his or her needs when help is needed. Cure refers to therapeutic interventions by medical professionals. Hall believed that the cure circle is shared by the nurse with other health professionals, such as physicians or physical therapists. In 1959, Dorothy Johnson described nursing as fostering the behavioral functioning of the client. Johnson identified three steps of nursing process: assessment, decision and nursing action.ii Johnson is 3 known for the development the Behavior System Model of Nursing which stressed the importance of research-based knowledge about the effect of nursing care on patients. When she first proposed the theory in 1968, she explained that it was to foster “the efficient and effective behavioral functioning in the patient to prevent illness.” The nursing process of the Behavior System Model of Nursing begins with an assessment and diagnosis of the patient. Once a diagnosis is made, the nurse and other healthcare professionals develop a nursing care plan of interventions and setting them in motion. The process ends with an evaluation, which is based on the balance of the subsystems.iii In 1961 Ida Jean Orlando-Pelletieriv introduced d the “Deliberative Nursing Process Theory- which included five stages: assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. (ADPIE ).Orlando’s nursing theory stressed the reciprocal relationship between patient and nurse; what the nurse and the patient say and do affects them both. The result was an effective nursing care plan that could be easily adapted when and if any complications arise with the patient,. v Listen to an oral history by Ida Jean Orlando - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3Gn3Ph-00Q ] In 1963, Lois Knowles at the University of Florida used a five step nursing process called the ‘five Ds’: discover, delve, decide, do and discriminate”. The discover and delve steps are relates to assessment phase, decide is the planning stage, do is the implementation stage; discriminate is the evaluation phase of client responses to nursing interventions 4 In 1967—Helen Yura and Mary B.Walsh. published The Nursing Process, which identified 4 strategic nursing care steps – also referred to as APIE:- Assessment, Planning, Implement and Evaluation. Closer Look at Steps of the Nursing Process Assessment In Notes on Nursing, Florence Nightingale cautions: "But if you cannot get the habit of observation one way or other, you had better give up the [idea of] being a nurse, for it is not your calling, however kind and anxious you may be." vi Assessment establishes a data base by interviewing the individual and/or family members, observing their behavior and physical examination to identify problem(s). Assessment requires listening, critical thinking skills and data collection- subjective and objective. Subjective data involves verbal statements from the patient or caregiver. Objective data is measurable, tangible data such as vital signs, intake and output, and height and weight. Data may come from the patient directly or from primary caregivers who may or may not be direct relation family members. The data is recorded objectively and accurately – data is then organized and analyzed, to formulate a nursing diagnosis, goals and desired outcomes. Diagnosis In 1953, Virginia Fry and R. Louise McManus introduced the discipline-specific term “nursing diagnosis” to describe a step necessary in developing a nursing care plan. The nursing diagnosis was used to standardize and define the concept of nursing care. Their hope this would help to nurses earn professional status.vii In 1972, the New York State Nurse Practice Act identified diagnosing as part of the legal domain of professional nursing. The Act was the first legislative recognition of nursing’s independent role and diagnostic function. viii Shoemaker defines a nursing diagnosis as: 5 “A nursing diagnosis is a clinical judgment about an individual, family or community which is derived through a deliberate, systematic process of data collection and analysis. It provides the basis for prescriptions for definitive therapy for which the nurse is accountable. It is expressed concisely and it includes the etiology of the condition when known.”ix The North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDAx) defined the difference between a medical and nursing diagnosis as: “A medical diagnosis deals with disease or medical condition. A nursing diagnosis deals with human response to actual or potential health problems and life processesxi. For example, a medical diagnosis of Cerebrovascular Attack (CVA or Stroke) provides information about the patient’s pathology. The complimentary nursing diagnoses of Impaired verbal communication, risk for falls, interrupted family processes and powerlessness provide a more holistic understanding of the impact of that stroke on this particular patient and his family – they also direct nursing interventions to obtain patient- specific outcomes.”xii Nurses formulate nursing diagnosis based on their assessment of an individual for a problem or problems caused by their disease ,condition or disorder. Using this data they can formulates one or more nursing diagnosis. Nursing diagnosis are the basis for establishing and carrying out a patient care plan..xiii Organization - Classification Systems Development of a nursing nomenclature and classification system began as a movement to develop a language that would describe the clinical judgments made by nurses. There was great support by clinicians for describing problems that nurses are educated and licensed to treat which are not in medical language systemsxiv The North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA) is recognized in this and other countries as the pioneer in diagnostic classification in nursing. It began as a Task Force that was created at the First National Conference on Classification of Nursing Diagnoses, in 1973, and evolved into an incorporated Association in 1982 to assist nurses in the United States and Canada in classification. Initiation of work on classification for the nursing profession can be attributed to the foresight of two faculty at St. Louis University, Kristine Gebbie and Mary Ann Lavin who called the first conference on classification.xvxvi 6 In 1982, the conference group accepted the name “North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA)” to recognize the participation and contribution of nurses in the United States and Canada. In 1984, NANDA renamed “patterns of unitary man” as “human response patterns” based on the work of Marjorie Gordon. Currently, the taxonomy is now called Taxonomy II. In 1990 during the 9th conference of NANDA, the group approved an official definition of nursing diagnosis: “Nursing

Nurse A British nurse caring for a baby in 2006 Occupation Names Nurse Occupation type Healthcare professional Activity sectors Nursing, Health care Description Competencies Caring for general well-being of patients Education required Qualifications in terms of statutory regulations according to national, state, or provincial legislation in each country Nursing is a profession within the health care sector focused on the care of individuals, families, and communities so they may attain, maintain, or recover optimal health and quality of life. Nurses may be differentiated from other health care providers by their approach to patient care, training, and scope of practice. Nurses practice in a wide diversity of practice areas with a different scope of practice and level of prescriber authority in each. Many nurses provide care within the ordering scope of physicians, and this traditional role has come to shape the historic public image of nurses as care providers. However, nurses are permitted by most jurisdictions to practice independently in a variety of settings depending on training level. In the postwar period, nurse education has undergone a process of diversification towards advanced and specialized credentials, and many of the traditional regulations and provider roles are changing. Nurses develop a plan of care, working collaboratively with physicians, therapists, the patient, the patient's family and other team members, that focuses on treating illness to improve quality of life. In the U.S. (and increasingly the United Kingdom), advanced practice nurses, such as clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioners, diagnose health problems and prescribe medications and other therapies, depending on individual state regulations.

Machiavelli, The Prince Nursing documentation in clinical practice Instrument development and evaluation of a comprehensive intervention programme Catrin Björvell, Department of Nursing, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden Abstract The purpose of this study was to describe and analyse effects of a two-year comprehensive intervention concerning nursing documentation in patient records when using the VIPS model - a model designed to structure nursing documentation. Registered Nurses (RNs) from three acute care hospital wards participated in a two-year intervention programme, in addition, a fourth ward was used for comparison. The intervention consisted of education about nursing documentation in accordance with the VIPS model and organisational changes. To evaluate effects of the intervention patient records (n=269) were audited on three occasions: before the intervention, immediately after the intervention and three years after the intervention. For this purpose, a patient record audit instrument, the Cat-ch-Ing, was constructed and tested. The instrument aims at measuring both quantitatively and qualitatively to what extent the content of the nursing process is documented in the patient record.

  • Clinical Case Management Practice
    chapter 2 CliniCal Case ManageMent PraCtiCe “I think one’s feelings waste themselves in words; they ought all to be distilled into actions which bring results.” —Florence Nightingale Case managers focus on care coordination, financial management, and resource utilization to yield cost-effective outcomes that are patient-centric, safe, and provided in the least restrictive setting. When case management is practiced in this manner, costs are contained and patients, families, and stakeholders are viewed as essential members of the team. Case management is a fluid and dynamic practice that is most effective when it changes and adapts with the challenges of the healthcare system. Stewardship of the healthcare dollars, safe transitions of care, evaluating patient adherence, and consistent stakeholder communication are critical interventions that case managers employ, while maintaining a primary and consistent focus on quality of care and patient self-determination. 22 NursiNg Case MaNageMeNt review aNd resourCe MaNual, 4th editioN Case management is not a new concept. It traces its history back to the early 1900s, when it simply functioned as a means of providing care and containing healthcare costs. In the 1920s, the practice found its roots in the fields of psychiatry and social work, and focused on long- term chronic illnesses that were managed within the community. Case management processes were also used by visiting and public health nurses in the 1930s, when making house calls was a common practice. Throughout the next 50 years, case management remained essentially in the community. The mid-1980s saw the introduction of prospective payment system (PPS) case management, which became widespread within the acute and post-acute settings (Cesta, Tahan, & Fink, 2002).

  • Why Do Nurses Need Philosophy?
    International Journal of Sciences: Basic and Applied Research (IJSBAR) ISSN 2307-4531 (Print & Online) http://gssrr.org/index.php?journal=JournalOfBasicAndApplied -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why do nurses need philosophy? Dewi Prabawati* Sint Carolus School of Health Sciences, Jakarta, Indonesia Email: [email protected] Abstract The nature of philosophy gives a significant influence on the way nurse examines the phenomena which happen on the field. Together with nursing ethics, it is needed for nursing practice, as the basic elements of rights, giving value and the nature to perform good nursing practice. Philosophy and science can’t be separated because they give mutual benefits each other; where science requires philosophy to connect its findings for human knowledge and philosophy can act as a language connecting disciplines. Philosophy will increase nurses’ ability to understand the phenomena and this will provide nurses with a way to think about their practice. Caring is expected to be a spirit of nursing, and through caring, nurse can provide a safe and compassionate nursing care. For nurse educator, caring is a soul of nursing that will help the students cope or make adaptation with the stressor, thus will increase their motivation to study nursing. Keywords: Philosophy; nursing practice; science; caring. 1. Introduction Nursing is a discipline embedding science and art. As science, nursing has the body of knowledge that serves as rational for nursing practice; and as an art, nursing embodies effort to express the creativity in providing nursing care. Based on that definition, question that may arise is: why do nurses need philosophy? To answer this question and to know about the relationship, this paper attempts to provide the answers and it is believed that nurses need to understand the nature and the value of philosophy.

Telephone triage and nursing consultation by telephone or other electronic technology, incorporates unique knowledge, skill and competencies. Nurses employ the full range of the nursing process to gather data, make assessments, and generate plans for care via telephone encounters with patients. 2. Protocols are appropriate tools for implementing treatment plans. A registered nurse may use a protocol that has been written and approved by a physician to initiate a standing order for a medication or treatment. Assuming an appropriate patient-prescriber relationship exists, authorized standing orders may be implemented without consulting an authorized prescriber for a particular patient. The registered nurse should implement only standing orders which include a target population, exclusions, the population served, contraindications, special considerations, a specific order, a description of who has the authority to implement the order, physician signature, and review and approval by nursing as well as other involved disciplines. 3. Practice guidelines and protocols for care should be developed based on scientific/empirical evidence and outcomes data or expert opinion. Methods for periodic review of these tools to evaluate care effectiveness and currency of information should be in place. 4. Practice guidelines should evolve through collaboration and professional consensus among all involved health care disciplines. 5. When functions of the nurse involve complex decision making, even when driven by algorithm and protocol, telenursing should be limited to the practice of registered nursing. Licensed practical nursing activities within this context may include information gathering and the provision of patient education.
