Abstract

Nurses have problems integrating the nursing process and care plans into their nursing practice. This problem affects patient outcomes and nursing practice issues. Encouraging trends have been observed when nurses adopted a two-level approach to relearn and implement the nursing process. Assessments were more comprehensive, nursing diagnoses were more specific, precise, and accurate, documentation was improved, and care plans were individualized. This article offers step by step guidelines to learn the two-level approach while recommending methods for teaching.

A patient care team approach to multicultural patient care issues.

As the demographics of the United States continue to change to include more foreign nationals, nursing professionals will need to become increasingly aware of multicultural issues. Developing a greater cultural awareness of a particular client population can aid health care providers in improved caregiving. An interdisciplinary multicultural patient care team (IMPCT) was formed to enlarge the scope of nursing practice by educating nurses and other support staff about culturally diverse groups. The purpose of the IMPCT was to promote high-quality care to culturally diverse patients and their families. An IMPCT led by an advanced practice nurse would assist nursing staff in developing cultural awareness and sensitivity and would enhance nurses' ability to provide a holistic approach to nursing care.
