Q

Activities in Evaluation

A

In evaluation, the nurse reassess the client to collect data to compare it against the
desired outcome, draw conclusion of the problem status and determine the next course of
action- continuing the plan, modifying or terminating the plan.

75
Q

Types of evaluation

A

-Structure Evaluation
-Process Evaluation
-Outcome Evaluation

76
Q

focuses on the setting in which
care is given. It answers this question: What effect does the
setting have on the quality of care? Structural standards
describe desirable environmental and organizational
characteristics that influence care, such as equipment and
staffing.

A

Structure evaluation

77
Q

focuses on how the care was
given. It answers questions such as these: Is the care
relevant to the client’s needs? Is the care appropriate,
complete, and timely? Process standards focus on the
manner in which the nurse uses the nursing process.
Some examples of process criteria are “Checks client’s
identification band before giving medication” and “Performs and records chest assessment, including auscultation, once per shift.”

A

Process Evaluation

78
Q

focuses on demonstrable changes
in the client’s health status as a result of nursing care. Outcome criteria are written in terms of client responses or
health status, just as they are for evaluation within the
nursing process. For example, “How many clients undergoing hip repairs develop pneumonia?” or “How many
clients who have a colostomy experience an infection that
delays discharge?”

A

Outcome Evaluation
