Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

Creating and executing a nursing diagnosis helps nurses plan care and guide patient, family, and community interventions. They are developed based on a patient's physical evaluation and support measuring the outcomes. It is not recommended to select random interventions throughout the planning process. Instead, consider the following six essential factors when choosing interventions:

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Area of Science:

Nursing Informatics
Health Information Technology
Evidence-Based Practice

Background:

An initiative by the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care provided nurses with personal digital assistants (PDAs) and Tablet PCs.
Nurses gained internet access to drug references, medical information, best practice guidelines (BPGs), and research abstracts.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess the usability of mobile devices (PDAs, Tablets) for nurses' information access.
To explore the link between mobile-supported resources and nursing outcomes.

Main Methods:

A 12-month longitudinal study in 29 Canadian healthcare organizations.
Utilized Diffusion of Innovation theory and PARIHS model with 488 frontline nurses.
Questionnaires evaluated impacts on research utilization barriers, quality of care, and job satisfaction.

Main Results:

Nurses frequently accessed drug/medical references, Google, and Nursing PLUS.
Registered Nurses Association of Ontario (RNAO) BPGs were highly rated for usability and satisfaction.
Significant improvements noted in research awareness and communication among PDA/Tablet users.
PDA users showed improved perceived quality of care and job satisfaction, particularly in long-term care.

Conclusions:

Mobile information technologies are feasible for providing nurses with evidence-based practice resources.
Implementation can effectively reduce barriers to research utilization in nursing practice.
