[NURSING DIAGNOSES AND MIGRATION: PHENOMENOLOGICAL STUDY FROM THE IMMIGRANT'S POINT OF VIEW]
Summary
This study identified "Readiness for Enhanced Coping" as a key nursing diagnosis for immigrants. Current NANDA taxonomy needs updates to fully address the unique challenges of the migratory process for better healthcare.
Area of Science:
- Nursing
- Public Health
- Sociology
Context:
- Immigrant populations face unique health challenges.
- The migratory process significantly impacts well-being.
- Existing nursing diagnostic tools may not fully capture these experiences.
Purpose:
- To identify predominant NANDA nursing diagnoses in the immigrant community.
- To link these diagnoses to the migratory process.
- To analyze diagnoses within the Outcome Present State Test (OPT) framework.
Summary:
- A qualitative study interviewed 30 immigrants using semi-structured interviews.
- Data was categorized using NANDA domains and analyzed with Atlas-ti 6.0.
- Twenty-three diagnoses were identified, with "Readiness for Enhanced Coping" being most prominent.
Impact:
- Highlights the need to update NANDA taxonomy to include factors related to migration.
- Emphasizes the importance of tailored nursing care for immigrant health.
- Aims to improve the quality of healthcare for immigrant communities.

Nursing diagnoses represent a problem validated by major defining characteristics. There are four categories of nursing diagnoses: problem-focused, risk, health promotion or wellness, and syndrome. The anatomy of a nursing diagnosis includes three components: problem statement or diagnostic label, defining characteristics, and related factors.

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.

Formulating and Validating Nursing Diagnosis I

A nursing diagnosis is written when the nurse recognizes a cluster of essential patient data indicating health problems treated with independent nursing interventions. The standardized terminologies of a nursing diagnosis help nurses identify and treat patients' problems. Every electronic health record that uses nursing diagnosis must employ standard diagnostic terminology. Developing an efficient, individualized care plan begins with accurate nursing diagnoses.

Migration

Migration is long-range, seasonal movement from one region or habitat to another. This common strategy, carried out by many different organisms around the world, is an adaptive response that typically corresponds to changes in an organism’s environment, like resource availability or climate. Migrations can involve huge groups of thousands of animals as well as single individuals traveling alone and can range from thousands of kilometers to just a few hundred meters.

Documentation of Nursing Diagnosis
1.9K
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...

The nursing process uses scientific reasoning, problem-solving, and critical thinking to guide nurses in providing patients with appropriate care. This process is a systematic approach to recognize, avoid, and treat current or potential health issues while promoting the patient's well-being.
The nursing process considers the patient's emotional and physical well-being. The process can be repeated or stopped at any point if judged essential. Assessment is the first step in the nursing...
