Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate how effective systematic nursing care (NCS) is for outpatient mental health nursing by using recognized taxonomies (NANDA-I and NIC) to categorize patient diagnoses and interventions.
- Researchers collected data from 40 mental health patients, identifying 14 different nursing diagnoses, with the most common being impaired social interaction, anxiety, and ineffective self-health management, and prescribed 23 various interventions per appointment.
- The findings suggest that using NCS helps mental health nurses effectively identify patient needs and tailor interventions, ultimately enhancing the quality of nursing care provided to patients.
