In this paper will teach how learn how Bloom’s Taxonomy applies in a case study, how it is a benefit to nursing instructions and will describe each domain. The case study is with Ms. C, a 64 year- old postop open cholecystectomy with respiratory failure. It is stated that ((Burton & Larkin, 2008) “Ms. C underwent surgery without complication; however, in the post anesthesia care unit (PACU) she required extra oxygen therapy. Despite her need for oxygen, she was transferred to the postoperative unit without oxygen.” The nurses did not transfer the patient with oxygen, communicate that she needed oxygen, and it lead to other events of miscommunication among staff members.
Relationship between Nursing Process and Peplau’s Model Peplau’s key concept focuses around the therapeutic nurse-client relationship which develops through overlapping and interlocking phases of orientation, working, and resolution through which the nurse-client relationship evolves throughout the patient’s healing process (Blais & Hayes, 2011). Peplau’s therapeutic nurse-client relationship phases and the nursing process goes hand in hand. The nursing process of assessing applies to Peplau’s orientation phase of gathering data, actively listening, building trust, and reducing any anxiety (Videbeck, 2011). This takes place in the beginning of the therapeutic relationship and it differs from other patient relationships because it focuses on only the needs of the patient (Videbeck, 2011). The nurse is responsible for setting the parameters of the meetings and then providing the client with direction.

A Client Based Study Knowledge and Skills for Nursing Practice Part Two Written Assignment. A Client Based Case Study. The aim of this essay is to demonstrate the assessment process of a patient using the Roper Logan and Tierney (RLT) model of nursing framework, and to show how the nursing process works alongside this model. This will be established by including a holistic history of the patient and also by considering how the RLT model is applicable to this patient. The discussion of one nursing intervention will follow, showing how the nursing process is applied to patient care.
* As one of the new protocols of our institution, I reinforced my knowledge regarding the use of FOCUS/DAR charting. In this type of documentation, you need to have specific interventions for every problem. At first I was confused with the old narrative style of charting but as you intervene with the patient in accordance with the doctor’s orders, I can already say that FOCUS charting is designed to specifically do the interventions and eliminate every patient’s complains as much as possible. * The first role of a nurse while on duty is assessing the patients and incoming patients to prioritize which includes taking vital signs and taking subjective and objective data, history taking and rendering independent nursing interventions. * Another is referring to the physician on duty and carrying out orders in giving the appropriate management and medication.
