A

Writing Nursing Orders cont’d

A nursing order contains

  • Date
  • Subject (often the nurse)

Q

Nursing Process: Implementation and Evaluation

A
34
Q

What 3 items are involved in the implementation phase?

A

Doing

Delegating

Documenting

35
Q

Preparing for Implementation

A

Check your knowledge and abilities

Organize your work

* Establish feedback points

* Prepare supplies and equipment

Prepare the client

36
Q

Check your knowledge and abilities

A
  • Clarify orders
  • Are we qualified/authorized to carry out the intervention?
  • Is the action safe, reasonable, and prudent?
37
Q

Organize your work

A
  • What interventions can be done simultaneously?
38
Q

Prepare the client

A
  • Reassess if the intervention is still necessary?
  • Assess client’s readiness
  • Explain what we’re going to do; what patient may feel; how much they need to be involved
  • Provide patient privacy
39
Q

Implementing the Plan

A

Use cognitive, interpersonal, and psychomotor skills

Promote client participation

* A common issue is lack of understanding

* Provide teaching; be sensitive

* What are their concerns?

* Evaluate for change; get them to “buy in”

Coordinate care

* Read and review reports of other professionals involved in the client’s care

40
Q

Delegation and Supervision

Transferring responsibility while retaining accountability

Includes supervision (of UAP, LPN/LVN)

That it gets done and was done correctly

You cannot delegate any intervention that requires independent, specialized nursing knowledge, skill, or judgment

41
Q

What are the 5 rights of delegation?

A

Right task (can I delegate this task?)

Right circumstance (Maybe I can delegate this task, should I?)

Right person (Who is best prepared; do they have the proper skills?)

Right direction/communication (What does the UAP or LPN/LVN need to know to carry the action out?)

Right supervision (How do I, as the nurse, follow up to make sure that this was carried out and done correctly?)

42
Q

Knowledge Check

The nurse reviews the care needs for her assigned clients. Which task is inappropriate to assign to the unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP)?

a. Make sure the client takes his pills after his meal
b. Ambulate a second-day postoperative patient to the bathroom

Evaluation

Evaluate

45
Q

Know that evaluation and assessment are very similar

Both involve data collection; the difference is when we’re collecting the data and what we’re using it for

A

Assessment –> collect data to create the care plan

Evaluation –> collect data to revise the plan of care

46
Q

How Are Standards and Criteria Used in Evaluation?

American Nurses Association (ANA) standards include a set of criteria to help describe the standard

A

Criteria: measurable characteristics, properties, attributes, or qualities

Reliable - yield same results every time regardless of who is using it

Valid - is measuring what it is intended to measure
