then cluster together to analyze
CAN COME FROM OTHER HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS AND THEIR OBSERVATIONS AS WELL AS
PATIENTS FAMILY
Nursing Process Diagnoses - CORRECT ANSWERS What statement best fits the patients
situation and leads us to the intervention phase where we can then pick interventions and

Nursing Process Planning - CORRECT ANSWERS Prioritize problems/diagnoses (ABC's) and
then decide client specific outcomes you want, goals for the client to get them there and the
interventions you as a nurse will take; SMART goals (Specific, Measurable, Attainable,
Realistic, and timed)
Outcomes and interventions
Can use NOC list for outcomes or develop a appropriate outcome statement.

Therapist, etc)
MAKE SURE THE IMPLEMENTATIONS ARE AGREED UPON BY PATIENT AND FAMILY (if needed)
