The five nursing care plans are structured around a five-step framework. These are: 1. Assessment, 2. Diagnosis, 3. Planning, 4. Implementation, and 5. Evaluation. The first step involves gathering the medical information about the patient, both history and current situation. After that, diagnosis is done on the basis of the collected data, which describes the patient’s response to the health issue. At the third step, planning involves preparing the medication based on the diagnosis that outlines specific goals and interventions. For the fourth and fifth steps, the medication plan is implemented and evaluated. Thus, the importance of care plans in nursing cannot be neglected, as they play a pivotal role in treating patients.
