The document discusses the nursing process and how it is used to create individualized care plans for patients. It outlines the 5 steps of the nursing process - assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. For each step, it provides details on how to perform that step, such as collecting comprehensive assessment data, identifying nursing diagnoses, setting goals and interventions, and evaluating outcomes. It also discusses concept maps as an alternative approach to traditional nursing care plans.

Write a 3 page evidence-based health care delivery plan for one component of a heart failure clinic.
Nursing within an organization is a critical component of health care delivery and is an essential ingredient in patient outcomes (Kelly & Tazbir, 2014). The concern for quality care that flows from evidence-based practice generates a desired outcome. Without these factors, a nurse cannot be an effective leader. It is important to lead not only from this position but from knowledge and expertise.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
Competency 2: Explain the accountability of the nurse leader for decisions that affect health care delivery and patient outcomes.
Describe accountability tools and procedures used to measure effectiveness.
Competency 3: Apply management strategies and best practices for health care finance, human resources, and materials allocation decisions to improve health care delivery and patient outcomes.
Develop an evidence-based plan for health care delivery.
Competency 4: Apply professional standards of moral, ethical, and legal conduct in professional practice.
Apply professional and legal standards in support of a care plan.
Competency 5: Communicate in manner that is consistent with the expectations of a nursing professional.
Write content clearly and logically, with correct use of grammar, punctuation, mechanics, and current APA style.
In an effort to improve the patients' health literacy concerning heart failure, it is important that the clinic staff and the hospital staff present a consistent, evidence-based message on self-care to these patients and their families in order to decrease acute exacerbation and re-admissions. Review current evidence for clinical practice guides or protocols when developing your patient teaching plans and materials. Consider the following:
What does the patient know about the disease process as a baseline?
What does the patient need to do understand as far as the best self-care processes?
Can the patient identify proper medication compliance?
Is there a financial issue that affects compliance?
Who buys and prepares the food in the home?
Can the patient verbalize when to seek medical assistance?

A possible diagnosis is a statement about a health problem that the client might have now, but the nurse doesn’t yet have enough information to make an actual diagnosis.
An example of a possible diagnosis is: Possible fluid volume deficit in case of frequent vomiting for three days .
Cerebrovascular accident (CVA), also known as stroke, acute ischemic stroke, cerebral infarction, or brain attack.
Definition:
It is the sudden impairment of cerebral circulation in one or more blood vessels supplying the brain caused by hemorrhage from a tear in the vessel wall or impairs cerebral circulation by partial or complete occlusion of the vessel lumen
Strokes can be classified into 2 main categories:
Ischemic strokes. These are strokes caused by blockage of an artery (or, in rare instances, a vein). About 87% of all strokes are ischemic.
Hemorrhagic stroke. These are strokes caused by bleeding. About 13% of all strokes are hemorrhagic.
2 main categories, Ischemic strokes :
Thrombotic strokes. These are caused by a blood clot that develops in the blood vessels inside the brain.
Embolic strokes. These are caused by a blood clot or plaque debris that develops elsewhere in the body and then travels to one of the blood vessels in the brain through the bloodstream.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2. Nursing Care Plans/Concept Maps
Utilize the Nursing Process to construct
an individualized plan of care for a
patient based on a critical analysis of
patient assessment data
Nursing Process: Systematic method of
giving humanistic care that focuses on
achieving outcomes in a cost effective
manner.
3. Nursing Care Plans
Written guidelines for client care
Organized so nurse can quickly identify
nursing actions to be delivered
Coordinates resources for care
Enhances the continuity of care
Organizes information for change of
shift report
4. The Nursing Process is a Systematic
Five Step Process
Assessment
Diagnosis
Planning
Implementation
Evaluation
5. Why Use the Nursing Process for Care
Plans
Requirement set forth by national
practice standards (ANA, TJC)
Basis for NCLEX exams
Based on principles and rules that
promote critical thinking in nursing
6. Putting it All Together
Assessment: The first step in determining a
patients’s health status.
Gather information, put pieces of the health
puzzle together.
Entire plan is based on the data you collect,
data needs to be complete and accurate
Collect, verify, and organize data, identify
patterns, report and record the data.
Report significant abnormalities immediately.
7. Case Scenario
Mr. Jones complains his throat and
mouth are dry. He is allowed fluids, but
has had almost nothing to drink all
evening. He tells you he would like to
drink, but doesn’t like water, especially
the warm water in the pitcher. He also
hates to bother the nurse. The nurse
notes his oral mucosa is dry and
cracked and his urine output for the last
shift is low.
8. Assessment
First step in determining health status
Gather information
Gather all the “puzzle pieces” to put
together a clear picture of health status
Entire plan is based on data collected
Data needs to be complete and
accurate, make sense of patterns
9. 5 Activities Needed to Perform a
Systematic Assessment
Collect data
Verify data
Organize data
Identify Patterns
Report & Record data
10.
11. Comprehensive Data Collection
Begins before you actually see the patient
(Nurse report from ER, Chart reviews)
Continues with admission interview and
physical assessment once you meet patient.
Other information resources include: family,
significant others, nursing records, old
medical records, diagnostic studies, relevant
nursing literature.
Consider age, growth & development
13. Comprehensive Physical Assessment
Vital signs
Height & weight
Review of systems (neurological/mental
status, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular,
respiratory, GI, GU, skin and wounds.
Standardized risk assessments:
Pressure ulcers, falls, DVT
14.
15. Organizing Assessment Data
Cluster data into groups according to a
nursing or medical model (Maslow’s Basic
Human Needs Model)
Clustering data helps maintain a nursing
focus, allows patterns to be recognized
Cluster by body system or need deficit
Helps to identify nursing diagnosis pertinent
to your client
Example: All information gathered regarding
nutritional status may help to identify
nutritional alterations
16.
17. Diagnosis
AssessmentCritical analysis of data
Diagnosis or Problem Identification
Laws & standards continue to change to
reflect how nursing practice is growing
(APN role)
Novice nurse responsible for
recognizing health problems,
anticipating complications, initiating
actions to ensure appropriate and timely
treatment.
18. Identifying Nursing Diagnosis
Common language for nurses
A clinical judgment about an individual, family
or community response to an actual or
potential health problem or life process,
Nursing diagnosis provide a basis for
selection of nursing interventions so that
goals and outcomes can be achieved
NANDA list of acceptable diagnoses, updated
every 2 years.
19. Diagnostic Reasoning
Apply critical thinking to problem
identification
Requires knowledge, skill, and
experience
Big Picture
20. Fundamental Principles of Diagnostic
Reasoning
Recognize diagnoses
Keep an open mind
Back up diagnosis with evidence
Intuition is a valuable tool for problem
identification
Independent thinker
Know your qualifications & limitations
21. Nursing Diagnosis
Actual or Potential problems identified
Actual: actual evidence of
signs/symptoms of diagnosis exist.
(Fluid Volume Deficit)
Potential/Risk for Diagnosis: client’s
data base contains risk factors of
diagnosis, but no true evidence (Risk for
altered skin integrity)
22. Writing a Nursing Diagnosis
Actual Problems: Problem (NANDA
label) & Etiology & Supporting Signs
and Symptoms
Impaired Communication related to
language barrier as evidenced by
inability to speak English
23. Writing a Nursing Diagnosis
Potential or Risk Problems: Problem
(NANDA label) & etiology or problem &
risk factors with related to statement
linking problem to risk factors.
Risk for Impaired skin integrity related to
obesity, excessive diaphoresis, and
immobility.
24. Writing A Nursing Diagnosis
Use accepted qualifying terms (Altered,
Decreased, Increased, Impaired)
Don’t use Medical Diagnosis (Altered
Nutritional Status related to Cancer)
Don’t state 2 separate problems in one
diagnosis
Refer to NANDA list in a nursing text
books
25. Planning: 4 Part Process
Set your priorities of care, what needs to be
done first, what can wait.
Apply Nursing Standards, Nurse Practice Act,
National practice guidelines, hospital policy
and procedure manuals.
Identify your goals & outcomes, derive them
from nursing diagnosis/problem.
Determine interventions, based on goals.
Record the plan (care plan/concept map)
26. Planning
Risk for Impaired skin integrity related to
immobility
Now restate the first clause in a statement
that describes improvement, control or
absence of problem
The patient will have no signs of skin
breakdown during hospital stay.
Outcome needs to be time related. ( state
time period to achieve goal)
27. Short Term vs. Long Term Goals
Short term goal can be achieved in a
reasonable amount of time ( few hours to few
days)
Long term goals may take weeks/months to
be achieved
Client will ambulate down the hall within 2
days.
Client will walk the length of the hallway
independently by the end of 2 weeks
28. Achieving Goals/Outcomes
Be realistic in setting goals. (look at overall
health state, growth & development level,
prognosis)
Set goals mutually with client
Goals should be measurable, use
measurable, observable verbs
Identify one behavior per outcome
When indicated use short-term vs. long tern
goals
29. Determining Interventions
Nursing interventions are actions performed
by nurse to reach goal or outcome
Monitor health status
Minimize client risks
Direct Care Intervention: Direct action
performed to client (inserting foley catheter)
Indirect Care Intervention: actions performed
away from client ( looking at lab results)
30. Determining Interventions
Interventions will be collaborative,
combining nursing actions and
physician orders.
Ineffective Airway Clearance related to
incisional pain
Nursing Actions: Ascultate breath
sounds every four hours, Assist with
coughing and deep breathing every
hour etc.
Physician orders: pain medication,
31. Implementation
Putting your plan into action
Set priorities after report
Assess and reassess
Perform interventions
Chart client responses
Give report to next shift
32. Implementation of Nursing
Interventions
Describes a category of nursing
behaviors in which the actions
necessary for achieving the goals and
outcomes are initiated and completed
Action taken by nurse
33. Types of Nursing Interventions
Protocols: Written plan specifying the
procedures to be followed during care of
a client with a select clinical condition or
situation
Standing Orders: Document containing
orders for the conduct of routine
therapies, monitoring guidelines, and/or
diagnostic procedure for specific
condition
34. Implementation Process involves:
Reassessing the client
Reviewing and revising the existing care
plan
Organizing resources and care delivery
(equipment, personnel, environment)
35. Evaluation
Evaluation of individual plan of care includes
determining outcome achievement
Identify variables/factors affecting outcome
achievement
Decide where to continue/modify/terminate
plan
Continue/modify/terminate plan based on
whether outcome has been met (partially or
completely)
Ongoing assessment of QI
36. Evaluation
Step of the nursing process that
measures the client’s response to
nursing actions and the client’s progress
toward achieving goals
Data collected on an on-going basis
Supports the basis of the usefulness
and effectiveness of nursing practice
Involves measurement of Quality of
Care
37. Evaluation of Goal Achievement
Measures and Sources: Assessment
skills and techniques
As goals are evaluated, adjustments of
the care plan are made
If the goal was met, that part of the care
plan is discontinued
Redefines priorities
38. Concept Map Care Plans
Innovative approach to planning & organizing
nursing care.
Essentially a diagram of patient problems and
interventions
Ideas about patient problems and
interventions are the “concepts” to be
diagrammed.
Enhances critical thinking and clinical
reasoning
Used to organize patient data, analyze
relationships, establish priorities
39. Theoretical Basis of Concept Maps
Roots in education and psychology
Also known as mind maps, cognitive
maps
Concept mapping requires critical
thinking
New knowledge is built on preexisting
knowledge, new concepts are
integrated by identifying relationships
40. Steps in Concept Map Care Planning
Develop a Basic Skeleton Diagram
Analyze and Catagorize Data
Analyze Nursing Diagnoses
Relationships
Identifying Goals, Outcomes, &
Interventions
Evaluate patient responses
