Documentation of Nursing Diagnosis01:10

Documentation of Nursing Diagnosis

The nurse documents nursing diagnoses and enters them into the patient record. The identified patient's nursing diagnosis is either written out with a plan of care or entered into the electronic health record.
In some settings, data-driven computerized decision support systems are in place, allowing for more accurate nursing diagnoses. The database within one of these systems includes diagnostic labels defining characteristics, activities, and indicators for nursing. A nurse enters assessment...
Nursing Assessment01:29

Nursing Assessment

The two sources for collecting information are primary and secondary. After gathering information, interpretation and validation help to complete the data. The purpose of assessment is to establish data with the initial information, to interpret data about the patient's perceived needs and health problems, and to respond to these problems identified.
The nurse collects all aspects of the patient's health in the initial assessment, establishing priorities for ongoing focused assessments and...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.
It is critical to determine the patient's learning needs during the assessment. Determination of learning needs compounds data from the...
Nursing Diagnosis01:22

Nursing Diagnosis

Following assessment, a nursing diagnosis is the next step in the nursing process. It begins after the nurse has collected and recorded the patient data. The purpose of diagnosing is to identify how the client responds to actual or potential health processes, identify factors that bestow or that cause health problems, the etiologies, and identify resources or strengths the individual, group, or community can draw on to prevent or resolve problems.
The nursing diagnosis focuses on evidence-based...
Aims Of Nursing01:29

Aims Of Nursing

Nursing involves independent, cooperative, person-centered care for people of all ages, families, groups, and communities. Nurses assist the sick or the well person in all settings. Nursing includes promoting health, preventing illness, and caring for ill, disabled, and dying people. Health promotion encourages people to take responsibility for their health. It focuses on the healthy behavior of individuals, families, and the community and the factors that impact their health. Examples of...
Nursing Implementation01:15

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.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Science
  • Patient Safety Research
  • Healthcare Quality Improvement

Background:

  • Missed nursing care, an error of omission, is underrepresented in patient safety literature.
  • Individual instances of incomplete nursing care are occasionally noted but not holistically addressed.
  • The concept requires a comprehensive analysis to understand its implications for patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a rigorous concept analysis of missed nursing care.
  • To define the attributes, antecedents, and consequences of missed nursing care.
  • To establish a conceptual model for understanding missed nursing care.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized an 8-step concept analysis methodology.
  • Conducted systematic literature searches across multiple databases (MEDLINE, CINAHL, WWW) from 1970 to April 2008.
  • Examined antecedents, attributes, consequences, and empirical referents of missed nursing care.

Main Results:

  • Missed nursing care is defined as any part or all of required patient care being omitted or delayed.
  • Key contributing factors include: antecedents prompting prioritization decisions, elements of the nursing process, and nurses' internal perceptions and values.
  • Both environmental and internal factors influence the provision of essential nursing care.

Conclusions:

  • Missed nursing care is a universal phenomenon, transcending cultural and national boundaries.
  • The Missed Nursing Care Model provides a framework for understanding this international issue.
  • Further research and interventions are needed to address missed nursing care globally.
