Summary
The Northern Germany Nursing Research Network develops tools to improve nursing care. Studies focus on identifying care deficits and creating management instruments for better quality assurance in elderly and home-based care.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Science
- Health Services Research
- Gerontology
Context:
- The Northern Germany Nursing Research Network (Pflegeforschungsverbund Nord) coordinates research at the University of Bremen.
- Focus on optimizing the nursing process through management instruments.
- Research is conducted within the Department of Interdisciplinary Aging and Nursing Research.
Purpose:
- To develop and test management instruments for optimizing nursing processes.
- Examine deficient areas in nursing action, including elderly care patterns and mobility restrictions.
- Generate and validate nursing management tools for quality assurance and risk prediction.
Summary:
- Group A investigates "Individual care-patterns of elderly people" and "Mobility Restrictions in Nursing Homes (MORIN)" to understand nursing care deficits.
- Group B focuses on "Nursing rounds for quality assurance" and "Predicting the risk of falls (PROFESSION)" using cluster-randomised controlled trials.
- Studies aim to identify significant risk combinations and test the efficiency of nursing assessment tools.
Impact:
- Aims to enhance the quality of nursing care through evidence-based management instruments.
- Contributes to a better understanding of care needs in elderly populations and nursing home settings.
- Provides practical tools for improving nursing practice in home-based and institutional care.

01:25Fundamentals of Nursing Process II
There are several characteristics related to delivering nursing care. One vital characteristic of the nursing process is that it can be used to protect nurses and justify the provided care. Productive use of the nursing process requires the knowledge and skills of nurses to assess and solve issues. Nurses should develop and strengthen their critical thinking skills and evidence-based nursing interventions to improve their skills in formulating nursing care plans. A well-defined approach to...
01:15Nursing Implementation
Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

The nursing process is the core of practice for every registered nurse to deliver holistic, patient-focused care. The following are the five steps in the nursing process.
01:30Current Trends in Nursing II
Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...
01:15Nursing Evaluation
The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved. Evaluative data collection includes two sections: the data acquired to evaluate patient outcomes and the time criteria for data collection.
