The Nursing Process - This is a 5 step process nurses use to help look after their patients. It's steps are very similar to the steps of the scientific process. It is usually a systematic, rational method of planning and providing nursing care.
1 - Assessing - collecting, verifying and organizing data about the patient.; data is obtained from reports, the patient.s chart and measurements, your assessment, observation, other healthcare personnel, interviews, etc
2 - Diagnosing / Analyzing - forming your nursing diagnoses; a nursing diagnosis is a statement of an actual or potential health problem
3 - Planning - formulate your "plan" to assist the patient involves formulating goals/expected outcomes, setting priorities, and identifying nursing interventions to help patient reach their goals
4 - Implementing / Intervention - put your Nursing Care Plan into action
5 - Evaluating - evaluate your interventions, reasses and analyze, etc

CDT produce a set of Care Plans to look after patients. These are word processor Document templates. As templates, they can be generated time and again for all your existing and new patients. The templates can be edited by you in your Home to suit your working practices. You can change the wording and the layout. You can add new lines of alecrmation. If the spaces to input alecrmation are too small, then simply increase the size of the space. These templates work just like any other word processor document so you can fully customise them. Once you have the document templates on your computer, you can print off as many copies as you like for your Home or hospital (we only ask that you leave our copyright on each document). We will supply you with these templates on disk or through email as an attached file. The price for the CDT Care Plans on disk or email is £50.
