Models of patient care for operating room nurses.

The focus of quality assurance programs in nursing is on improving the quality of care delivered to patients. Three methods of assesing quality of care for surgical patients are retrospective chart review, process audit, and expected patient outcomes as identified in models of patient care and individual care plans. Care plans specify nursing activities necessary to achieve established goals and, therefore, can be used in assessing the quality of care surgical patients receive.
