Nursing Process

The nursing process is a systematic approach that nurses use to provide care to patients. It involves five key steps: 1. **Assessment**: Gathering information about the patient's health status. 2. **Diagnosis**: Identifying health problems based on the assessment. 3. **Planning**: Setting goals and deciding on a plan to address the needs. 4. **Implementation**: Carrying out the plan through interventions and care. 5. **Evaluation**: Assessing the effectiveness of the care and making adjustments if necessary. This process ensures that nursing care is organized, patient-centered, and effective in promoting health and well-being.
