The steps in the nursing process are similar to those in the problem-solving method in that problems are identified, information is gathered, a specific problem is named, a plan for solving the problem is developed, the plan is put into action, and the results of the plan are evaluated.
Evaluation, the fifth step in the nursing process, involves deciding whether the client goals have been met, been partially met, or not been met.
The nurse uses psychomotor skills, interpersonal skills, and cognitive skills when performing nursing activities.
Implementation, the fourth step in the nursing process, involves performing or delegating nursing activities.
Planning, the third step in the nursing process, involves prioritizing nursing diagnoses, identifying and writing goals and client outcomes, developing nursing interventions, and recording the plan of care in the client’s record.
Types of nursing diagnoses include: actual, potential(including risk and possible), and wellness.
The second step in the nursing process involves further analysis and synthesis of the data and results in a list of nursing diagnoses.
Both subjective data (information given by the client)and objective data (information collected by the health care provider using the senses) are collected during the assessment process.
Assessment is the first step in the nursing process and involves collecting, validating, organizing, categorizing, and recording data.
The nursing process is composed of five steps: assessment, diagnosis, outcome identification and planning, implementation, and evaluation.
The nursing process is an organized method of planning and delivering nursing care.
Critical thinkers ask questions, evaluate evidence, identify assumptions, examine alternatives, and seek to understand various points of view.
Critical-thinking, problem-solving, and decisionmaking skills are important for use in the nursing process.
The goals and/or the nursing interventions planned were not appropriate for the client.
The time frame was too optimistic.
The goals and expected outcomes were not realistic.
The initial assessment data were incomplete.

The list of nursing diagnoses is prioritized.
