Nursing Implementation

Nursing 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.

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching II: Planning and Implementation

Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about insulin...

Planning Nursing Care II

Planning Nursing Care II

A nursing care plan can present in two forms: informal and formal. Informal is a care plan for the individual use of the nurse and goals they wish to accomplish during their shift. Informal care plans are not included in the patient chart. A formal nursing care plan is a written or computerized guide that organizes patient care. It is further subdivided into two: standardized and individualized care plans. Standardized care plans are pre-populated care plans for specific patient populations,...

Planning Nursing Care I

Planning Nursing Care I

The planning phase of the nursing process helps nurses set priorities, outline patient-centered goals and expected outcomes, and tailor nursing interventions to align with the aligned care plan. Through the planning phase, the nurse applies critical thinking skills to align and develop interventions according to the patient's needs. It provides continuity of care allowing patients to receive the maximum benefit from treatment. It serves as a pilot plan for allocating individual staff to a...

Area of Science:

Early childhood intervention research
Public health program evaluation
Rural health services

Background:

Parenting Plus is an early intervention program modeled after Hawaii Healthy Start.
It offers strength-based paraprofessional home visitations to overburdened parents of newborns.
The program operates in a rural, western Canadian health district.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the implementation process of the Parenting Plus program.
To identify factors contributing to the success of strength-based pilot projects.
To inform policy and practice recommendations for early intervention programs.

Main Methods:

A general inductive approach guided the study design.
Data collection involved semi-structured in-depth interviews with healthcare practitioners.
Focus groups were conducted with program participants until theoretical saturation was achieved.

Main Results:

Intersectoral involvement was identified as crucial for the success of this strength-based pilot project.
The study highlighted the need for further investigation into the impact of home visitor characteristics.
Optimal levels of paraprofessional or professional experience and education for specific client populations require further study.

Conclusions:

Intersectoral collaboration is essential for the successful implementation of early intervention programs like Parenting Plus.
Future research should explore how home visitor characteristics influence participant change.
Determining the best-suited experience or education level for home visitors is critical for program effectiveness.
