Nursing Evaluation01:15

Nursing 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.

Guidelines for Writing Outcome01:11

Guidelines for Writing Outcome

When developing expected outcomes for a patient care plan, the nurse should adhere to the following recommendations:
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care evaluation by...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching III: Evaluation and Documentation

Evaluation of the teaching process enables the nurse to determine if the patient's learning needs were met and if training was effective. If the expected outcomes are not met, the care plan is revised, and additional education or reinforcement is provided. Nurses can ask questions after the session or obtain feedback to assess the patient's understanding of the topic.
Nurses can use several methods to evaluate patient outcomes. For example, oral questions can assess cognitive learning, patient...
Role of Communication in the Nursing Process III: Evaluation and Documentation01:08

Role of Communication in the Nursing Process III: Evaluation and Documentation

A successful patient outcome depends mainly on the evaluation stage of the nursing process. Evaluation determines effectiveness by reviewing what was done previously after the completion of nursing interventions. Every time a healthcare professional steps in or administers treatment, they must reassess or evaluate the action to ensure the intended result. During the evaluation phase, there are three probable patient outcomes:

Role of Communication in the Nursing Process II: Planning and Implementation

Several factors are considered while creating a patient's care plan. Motivation is a factor in improving communication, and patients often require encouragement to try different approaches involving significant change. It is essential to involve the patient and family in decisions about the plan of care to determine whether the suggested methods are acceptable. Consider meeting critical comfort and safety needs before introducing new communication methods and techniques. Allow adequate time for...
Documentation in Long-Term and Home Healthcare Setting01:29

Documentation in Long-Term and Home Healthcare Setting

Documentation in long-term care facilities and home healthcare settings is crucial for ensuring continuous, coordinated, and comprehensive care for patients. Each setting has its specific documentation processes and tools:

Summary

Patient navigation shows benefits across cancer care. Further research is needed on oncology nurse-led navigation, focusing on baseline assessments and outcome achievement for improved patient care.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Healthcare Management
  • Patient Care

Background:

  • Patient navigation is increasingly recognized for its role in improving cancer care delivery.
  • Evaluating the impact of patient navigation requires robust outcome measures, including patient-reported outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review evaluation and outcome measures for assessing patient navigation's impact.
  • To identify current research on patient navigation outcomes across the cancer care continuum.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of published peer-reviewed papers.
  • Inclusion of clinical reports and research findings.
  • Consideration of clinical experience and nursing research.

Main Results:

  • Evidence indicates patient navigation yields positive outcomes throughout the cancer care continuum.
  • Patient navigation interventions, particularly by oncology nurses, show potential for significant positive impact.

Conclusions:

  • Oncology nurses, in various roles, can positively influence patient outcomes.
  • Further nursing research is essential to define oncology nursing patient navigation interventions and measure their associated outcomes effectively.
