The most correct definition of “critical thinking” is
a. A problem-solving process that enables one to show others
they are wrong
b. An examination of one’s own beliefs in order to defend
them intelligently
c. Purposeful, analytical thinking that results in a
reasoned decision
d. Rational thinking that results in obtaining the one
correct answer

ClickerCheck (cont’d)
Correct answer: C
Most definitions of critical thinking include the concept
of it being “purposeful” and deliberate. It is more than
just problem solving and is not used exclusively to
defend one’s beliefs. Critical thinking enables a person
to see that there may be more than one correct
answer.

  • 21. Copyright © 2015 F.A. Davis Company Think Like a Nurse It is a pleasant Saturday afternoon, and you are meeting with an old friend whom you have not seen in two years. She says, “I hear you’ve decided to be a nurse. What made you choose that?” How would you reply to her question?

Editor's Notes

  1. An important aspect of critical thinking is the process of identifying and checking your assumptions—and this is also an important part of the research process. Critical thinkers are flexible, nonjudgmental, inquisitive, honest, and interested in seeking the truth. They possess intellectual skills that allow them to use their curiosity to their advantage, and they have critical attitudes that motivate them to use those skills responsibly.
  2. Please read the above question and use your clicker to select the answer that you feel is the most correct definition of “critical thinking.”
  3. The correct answer is C. The key words in the stem are purposeful and deliberate. Critical thinking is not used exclusively to defend one’s beliefs, and it should enable a person to see that there may be more than one correct answer.
  4. Holistic care recognizes that each client is unique in terms of type of illness, culture, and age. Critical thinking enables the nurse to assess the client’s and family’s cultural beliefs and adapt care so that it is culturally sensitive and responsive to their needs. Nursing is an applied discipline. Nurses must apply their knowledge, not just memorize and regurgitate facts. Nursing uses knowledge from other fields. Nurses use information from chemistry, physiology, psychology, social sciences, and other disciplines to identify and plan interventions for patient problems. Nursing is fast paced. A patient’s condition may change hour to hour or even minute to minute; thus, nurses need critical thinking in order to respond appropriately under stress.
  5. Please use your clicker to identify the best answer to the question.
  6. The correct answer is A. The key point in the slide is that critical thinkers are not afraid to question things.
  7. Theoretical knowledge consists of information, facts, principles, and evidence-based theories in nursing and related disciplines (e.g., physiology and psychology). It includes research findings and rationally constructed explanations of phenomena. “This is the type of knowledge you will use to describe your patients, understand their health status, rationalize which interventions you choose, and it allows you to predict patient responses to interventions and treatments.” Practical knowledge: knowing what to do and how to do it—consists of processes (e.g., the decision process and the nursing process) and procedures (e.g., how to give an injection) and is an aspect of nursing expertise. Self-knowledge: To think critically, you must be aware of your beliefs, values, and cultural and religious biases. You can gain self-knowledge by developing personal awareness, by reflecting (asking yourself), “Why did I do that?” or “How did I come to think that?” Ethical knowledge: Ethical knowledge consists of information about moral principles and processes for making moral decisions. Ethical knowledge helps you to fulfill your ethical obligations to patients and colleagues.
  8. Contextual awareness: An awareness of what is happening in the total situation, including values, cultural issues, interpersonal relationships, and environmental influences Inquiry: Applying standards of good reasoning to your thinking when analyzing a situation and evaluating your actions Considering alternatives: Exploring and imagining as many alternatives as you can think of for the situation. Examining assumptions: Recognizing and analyzing assumptions you are making about the situation and examining the beliefs that underlie your choices Reflecting critically: Questioning, analyzing, and reflecting on your decisions
  9. The nursing process, like nursing itself, involves both thinking and doing. Nurses must have good psychomotor and interpersonal skills, and they must use a sound knowledge base and good judgment to use the nursing process effectively.
  10. The words on this slide identify the phases of the nursing process.
  11. Assessment: Your purpose is to gather data that you will use to draw conclusions about the client’s health status. Diagnosis: You will identify the client’s health needs (usually stated in the form of a problem) based on careful review of your assessment data. You need to analyze all your data, synthesize and cluster information, and hypothesize about your client’s health status.
  12. Planning outcomes: making decisions about goals for your care—that is, the client outcomes you want to achieve through your nursing activities. These outcomes will drive your choice of interventions. Planning interventions: developing a list of possible interventions based on your nursing knowledge and then choosing those most likely to help the client achieve the stated goals. The best interventions are evidence based—that is, they are supported by sound research.
  13. Implementation: You carry out the actions that you previously planned, and you document your actions and the client’s responses to them. Evaluation: You determine whether the desired outcomes have been achieved, and assess whether your actions have successfully treated or prevented the client’s health problems. This phase also includes modification of the care plan based on what has been achieved and what yet needs to be achieved.
  14. This slide identifies the relationship between the nursing process and critical thinking.
  15. Nurses use critical thinking in all steps of the nursing process. They also apply critical thinking to the four kinds of nursing knowledge, and when they are doing for the patient. Caring motivates and facilitates the thinking and doing. The goal of all this is to have a positive effect on a patient’s health outcomes.
  16. Refer to Table 2-3. Theoretical knowledge: principles, facts, theories, what you have to think with Critical thinking: enables you to fully use your knowledge and skills Practical knowledge: skills, procedures, and processes (including the nursing process) Nursing process: assessment and evaluation—everything you know about the patient including context. Planning and implementation—what you do for the patient
  17. Self knowledge: awareness of your values, beliefs, and biases Ethical knowledge: understanding your obligations; sense of right and wrong Patient data: physical, psychosocial, spiritual Patient preferences/context: context for care, environment, relationships, culture, resources, supports
  18. Please use your clicker to answer this question by selecting either a. or b.
  19. The correct answer is A.
  20. Consider the personal experiences that you have had that have fostered your desire to be a nurse. Also consider the people in your life who are nurses and identify how they have influenced your decision to become a nurse.
