action of encouragement and instruction to the patient is part of carrying out a plan of action.

nursing care plan.
A. concept map
A concept map is another method of recording a nursing care plan. In a concept map, the nursing process is recorded in
a visual diagram of patient problems and interventions. A clinical (critical) pathway is a prewritten plan that directs the
entire interprofessional care team in the daily care goals for select health care problems.
A nurse is providing care for a patient who had a transurethral resection of his prostate this morning. The patient is
receiving continuous bladder irrigation, and the urinary catheter is now occluded. The nurse is planning to contact
the patientts health care provider and communicate using the SBAR (Situation-Background-Assessment-
Recommendation) format. Which statement is a component of communication using SBAR?
"What do you think could be causing this occlusion?"
"I think that we should manually irrigate his catheter."
"What do you know about this patient and his history?"
"Could you please provide some direction for his care?"
