Nursing

Nursing is a discipline concerned with how patients and families are cared
for to restore them to optimal health and functioning. Some nursing models
of practice involve a four step process of Assessment, Planning,
Implementation, and Evaluation. This "Plan of Care" is created and carried
out in collaboration with the whole health care team.

A nurse practices nursing as a profession.

Nurses acknowledge that the nursing profession is an essential part of the
society from which it has grown. The authority for the practice of nursing
is based upon a social contract that delineates professional rights and
responsibilities as well as mechanisms for public accountability. The
American Nurses' Association (1980) has defined nursing as "the diagnosis
and treatment of human responses to actual or potential health problems."
Nursing diagnoses are unique, bearing little resemblance to medical diagnoses.
