In Lesson 1.1: The Nursing Process, you learned how the Nursing Process is not just a method that can be applied to nursing, but to other aspects of your life. The process is a method that is geared toward improving something. You saw this in the instructor’s example of making pasta sauce.
In this discussion, consider a non-nursing problem that you could apply the nursing process to. Briefly explain how the process works in each stage in addressing your problem:
Assessment: What data have you collected? (e.g., Any time the dog is unattended in the yard, he digs up the garden.)
Diagnosis: What are the strengths and the problems? (e.g., The dog has a lot of playful energy, but he is directing that toward destructive behavior.)
Planning: What is the outcome you want and how do you get there? (e.g., The garden needs better protective barriers and the dog needs other things to engage him.)
Implementation: What steps did you take to initiate change? (e.g., I set up a small fence around the garden and created a dedicated play area for the dog where he can dig.)
Evaluation: How effective was your plan in achieving your desired outcome? (e.g., The dog has left the garden alone, but is still digging in other parts of the yard.)
