Putting psychiatric nursing standards into clinical practice.

1. The nursing service of a 640-bed acute care teaching hospital consistently put standards of care and practice into actual nursing care by implementing a computerized nursing care plan (NCP) system. 2. Staff nurses worked with clinical specialists to write/revise standards for their specialty areas. These facility specific standards of care and practice were incorporated into the computerized NCP system. 3. The result of the computerization was legible NCPs in only a few minutes. These NCPs direct patient care based on generic and specialty nursing practice standards and promote equitable care for all patients.
