Hi Sam

Thank you for replying, I really don't know why I get so hung up over these care plans lol. I failed my assignment and this was because my careplans were not right so just panicking now about how to do them. I know I can do them.

thanks

vicky

P.S

It will help if you embrace them, they can really enhance your nursing and if you think about a well filled out hospital sheet- that is your care plan! :)

Hi Victoria,

You need to think about 'activity of living' in one part of the table. Actual problems, potential problems, nursing action, review time and any changes. this works quite well in a table. Have you looked at Orpet and Jeffery?

Hi Sam

hope you don't mind me asking, I am struggling with care plans especially for my assignment. I really do not know where to start with them or how to word them. do you know where I can find a better example of a filled out nursing care plan for a surgical patient and medical nursing apart from in the nursing book (pink One). No one in my practice has ever had to do care plans so not able to help much. Any help would be appreciated

Hi Charlotte,

Definitely have a look at the human care plans. I have also taught this module to my Year 1 VNs so if you want any help just shout :)

Hi,

Yes this isn't the most interesting assignment! You can find a whole chapter on nursing care plans in the pink 5th edition textbook.

Anne.

As RLT and Orems are human oriented - you will find a lot of info regarding these in human nursing textbooks.
