Purpose of the Study:

To critically evaluate the impact of the nursing process on nursing care delivery.
To advocate for the integration of intuitive clinical judgment into nursing education.
To re-evaluate the nursing process's role within the broader scope of expert nursing practice.

Main Methods:

Literature review of research on clinical judgment and nursing process adherence.

Related Experiment Videos

Analysis of the potential shift from holistic to mechanistic caregiving perspectives.

Examination of curriculum planning in nursing education.

Main Results:

Evidence suggests intuitive processes are integral to effective clinical judgment.
Over-reliance on the nursing process may potentially reduce holistic patient care.
Current nursing education may not adequately incorporate intuitive decision-making.

Conclusions:

The nursing process should be viewed as one component, not the entirety, of effective nursing practice.
Nursing curricula must acknowledge and integrate intuitive clinical judgment for developing expert nurses.
Balancing systematic approaches with intuitive skills is essential for advancing nursing practice.
