The process is an unbroken continuation of actions. Therefore, the five steps in the nursing process may be used repetitively for the duration of a patient’s care (Lippincott, Williams, & Wilkins, 2013). The design of an assessment is usually determined by the healthcare facility. This step in the nursing process requires that data be collected objectively and subjectively from the patient. Patients must be asked questions that allow them to provide as much information about their health related issue.
A Critical Appraisal of a Qualitative Study Grand Canyon University Introduction to Nursing Research NRS-433V September 17, 2014 A Critical Appraisal of a Qualitative Study Problem Statement The clinical problem and research problem that led to the study is identifying the effectiveness of rapid response teams (RRTs) functionality. It was noted, “most of the research on response teams has focused on tracking and reporting the hospital outcomes” (Leach & Mayo, 2013, p. 199). The researchers of this study believe that assessment of the actual functionality of the RRTs performance can lead to a better understanding of RRTs that can lead to fine tuning the education required to improve their performance when responding to a critical

The Four-Step Continuum and Informatics Sean Leonard Walden University Nursing 6051 Transforming Nursing and Healthcare August 25, 2015 Wisdom with Informatics Nursing informatics plays an important role in managing healthcare for patients with degenerative disorders of the central nervous system. Managing complex medical issues for patients with Parkinson’s disease involves applying previous knowledge or wisdom in treatment (McGonigle & Mastrian, 2012). Continuum of care approach uses previous wisdom gained in outcomes to deliver patient care through a defined period of time. Better coordination of patient care helps to produce best possible outcomes. According to Laureate Education (2010) nursing informatics is a major player in continuum of care and it consists of data, information, knowledge, and wisdom.

Service Management in Health Care Introduction to Service Management: SRV301 Instructor: November 5, 2012 The purpose of this paper is to explore the viability of a new service offering in a medical practice after exploring the current services and ascertaining the appropriateness of the service and the benefit to both patient and practice. When attempting to decide what field to pursue I felt it made sense to explore an area of which I have some familiarity; I therefore chose to explore the medical field to try to discover a service that will help not just our patients but also the practices and the way we interact with our patients. When trying to ascertain what service would be most useful in a medical practice there are some things that need to be taken into consideration. First and foremost any idea must first protect the patient and their right to privacy. Any idea must also take into consideration the company’s mission statement and values.
Literature Review of Evaluation Strategies A review of nursing literature suggests no one decisive methodology in evaluating clinical performance, but advocate a diffuse approach based on the curriculum evaluation model. According to Bonnel (2009), both the student and the faculty need to share transparency of expected clinical outcomes. Bonnel (2009) further clarifies the evaluation process as a systematic process consisting of three components; preparation, clinical participation, and concluding “data interpretation and feedback” (p. 459, para 1). The preparation phase readies the student for the clinical site selection, defines objectives with expected clinical outcomes. Clinical participation delineates performance observation across the practicum spectrum with acknowledgment of any noted deficiencies.
