2. Introduction
• The steps in the nursing process are used to achieve desired goals or
outcomes that are identified for your patient
• The nursing process allows the nurse to deliver care in a systematic way
• There are five steps in the nursing process: assessment, diagnosis, planning,
implementation, and evaluation
3. Assessment
• The first step is collecting data related to clients, their problems, and their
needs
• Data collection can be done through interviewing, physical assessment, chart
review, and diagnostic testing
6. Implementation
• Putting the plan into action
• What the nurse does
• Key words: maintain, position, assess, evaluate
7. Evaluation
• Assessing the effectiveness of the interventions or actions
• Changing the plan as needed
• The goals are what the client will do, not the nurse
