I don't think definitions of assessment data and nursing interventions are going to be terribly useful for you. What would be more helpful is to find out exactly what information your Prof is looking for. What format, what to focus on , etc. So, in short....I'd start with your Prof.

How can you be expected to complete a case study if you don't understand the meaning of "assessment data" and "nursing intervention"?
Have you covered these in class? Have you been taught care planning?
Thankyou:)
@ its me juli- We have not learnt much about assessment data and nursing interventions at all.
And we have not gone into care planning.
We are expected to refer to our textbooks, but it all seems like a second language to be.
How we are expected to complete this task i cannot really comprehend
