Nursing Diagnosis and the Nursing Process
Implementation: Independent vs. Dependent
Nursing interventions vary in terms of authority and the need for medical orders.
Types of Interventions
- Independent: Actions within the scope of nursing (e.g., repositioning, patient education).
- Dependent: Actions requiring a provider's order (e.g., medication administration, wound care).
- Collaborative: Joint actions with other health team members (e.g., titration protocols).
