DIRECT-FOCUSED CARE: CONCEPT MAPPING ASSIGNMENT WORKSHEET
NURSING PROCESS TEMPLATE:
Assessment (Recognizing Cues)
Which patient information is relevant? What patient data is most
important? Which patient information is of immediate concern?
Consider signs and symptoms, lab work, patient statements, H & P,
and others. Consider subjective and objective data.
Analysis (Analyzing Cues)
Which patient conditions are consistent with the cues? Do the cues
support a particular patient condition? What cues are a cause for
concern? What other information would help to establish the
significance of a cue?
Analysis (Prioritizing Hypotheses)
What explanations are most likely? What is the most serious
explanation? What is the priority order for safe and effective care?
Planning (Generate Solutions)
What are the desirable outcomes? What interventions can achieve
these outcomes? What should be avoided? (SMART Planning- specific,
measurable, attainable, realistic/relevant, time-restricted- Goal
setting)
Implementation (Take actions)
How should the intervention or combination of interventions be
performed, requested, communicated, taught, etc.? What are the
priority interventions? (Mark with asterisk)
Evaluation (Evaluating Outcomes)
What signs point to improving/declining/unchanged status? What
interventions were effective? Are there other interventions that
could be more effective? Did the patient’s care outlook or status
improve?
Patient Information (SBAR, H&P)
Main Concept
(Should be focus of below map)
