Nursing Care Plan

What is a Nursing Care Plan? How is it related to quality of care? A nursing care plan is a written instrument for delivering quality care. It is created by a nurse in coordination with the different members of the healthcare team. It is a guide for implementing the nursing process in the nursing profession. The nursing process begins with the assessment of the problem. Data is gathered and a nursing diagnosis is formed. Setting goals comes next, followed by the interventions to accomplish the goals that have been set. The final step involves evaluating the interventions and modifying them if the goal has not been met. This book is intended and prepared for both student nurses and nurse professionals. It aims to provide direction for nursing care plans related to the diseases and conditions commonly encountered. It also serves as a quick reference guide for making a care plan thereby saving time and effort at the work place. Depending on the existing policies of facilities and agencies, nursing care plans may differ slightly. As nursing evolves, so do the nursing care plans.
