Abstract:
The importance of nursing assessment for older people within a multi-disciplinary framework has long been advocated by the Royal College of Nursing (RCN 1997a , 1997b ). The government's guidance for the single assessment process, to be implemented locally from April for older people (DoH 2001a ), is therefore welcomed as a move towards ensuring that older people will receive regular and ongoing multi-agency assessment as a part of the care planning process. In particular, the emphasis on a person-centred approach is fully in line with the values and beliefs held by the RCN ( RCN 1999 ) and echoed in the National Service Framework for Older People (DoH 2001b ).

Multi-Step Reactions
Rate-Determining Steps
In a multistep reaction mechanism, one of the elementary steps progresses significantly slower than the others. This slowest step is called the rate-limiting step (or rate-determining step). A reaction cannot proceed faster than its slowest step, and hence, the rate-determining step limits the overall reaction rate.
The concept of rate-determining step can be understood from the analogy of a 4-lane freeway with a short-stretch of traffic-bottleneck caused due to...
