I'll give you a hint to start.

To accomplish what you want to accomplish ... What would assess? How would you assess it?

Think carefully of each concept you learn with each step of the nursing process and how you would perform that step in relation to what you're studying. This is part of critical thinking and will be required of you as a nurse.

Using ADPIE vs not using it will make or break your test grades. My first nursing test, I just leaned the content and I only passed the test by two points. From then on out, I really focused on ADPIE. Can you take what you've read and plug that into the nursing process?

I ALWAYS use ADPIE and Maslows Heirarchy of Needs when taking all of my test. When I'm studying I focus on what the content is on and what it's telling me I need to know or figure out as a Nurse. Ex:If my patient is just so happens to cough out their Trach while I'm preparing to change the ties, what would I do FIRST? What will be my/your PRIORITY nursing action? I try to think as if I'm in the situation when I'm studying like ok I need to know this and or do that to accomplish this or that.

I guess I'm the only one who does not know what this is. I thought ADPIE was something completely different. Can someone indulge me here? I use Maslow when assessing priority but I vaguely remember adpie with charting so I'm confused.

ADPIE is the nursing process. Assessment, diagnosis, planning, intervention and evaluation.

Now, I remember!! Lol. First semester was so long ago!!! I've never used it openly I guess but it's something that becomes a habit and you just do after a bit. I don't really use it in my studying process per se. Not something where I say now what's the adpie here? I use it more in my care plans and case studies.

The nursing process will become second nature at one point OP. The whole point is really to get you to think like a nurse. I would add more, but I want to know what your ideas are first. I"m not going to do your homework for you.
