A
29
Q

3 levels of disease prevention
primary = activates to protect against disease before signs and symptoms appears

tertiary sources
literature = reviewing about medical and pharmacological literature about the patients present in health status.
nurse experience = good clinical reasoning as essential of eliciting and process information
interview = organized conversation with a patients

34
Q

A
39
Q

P C G or outcome = responses that are expected after nursing interventions/ write a goal to reflect on their behaviour
singular goal or outcome = should be precise in evaluating the patient response to a nursing actions
observable goal or outcomes = nurses need to be able to observe whether change in a patients status occurs. change in physiological findings and in the patients knowledge. nurse ask about the patients conditions by using assessment skills
measurable goal or outcomes = patients response to nursing care
time limited outcome = time frame for each goals and expected outcomes indicates when the expected responses should occur
