Phases of Nurse-Patient Relationship
- Orientation Phase
- Identification Phase
- Exploitation Phase
- Resolution Phase
Orientation phase
The initial interaction between the nurse and the patient, where they meet, and the patient expresses their needs.
During this phase, the nurse establishes rapport, builds trust, and begins to assess the patient’s condition.
A patient is admitted to the hospital for chest pain. The nurse introduces themselves, explains their role, and asks questions about the patient’s symptoms and concerns. The nurse provides reassurance and outlines the plan for further diagnostic tests.
Identification Phase
In this phase, the patient begins to identify problems and work with the nurse to develop goals and a plan for care.
The patient starts to feel a sense of belonging and trust with the nurse, and they collaborate more actively.
The patient agrees with the nurse to manage pain and anxiety related to their chest pain. Together, they discuss strategies like medication, deep breathing exercises, and setting up a schedule for treatment.
Exploitation Phase
The patient takes advantage of all the available services and resources, becoming more independent in addressing their own health needs.
The nurse provides support, education, and guidance while encouraging the patient to become more self-reliant.
The patient begins to actively engage in their care, asking questions about the results of their tests and requesting more information about managing their condition. The nurse teaches them how to take medications properly and suggests lifestyle changes for heart health.
