measles, mumps, rubella

I need a nursing diagnosis for mumps, rubella. And I need one for mumps, please.

Specializes in Hospice.

As the crusty old bat society has told me many times on AN, nursing diagnoses are based on your patient assessment, not the medical dx. Took me two semesters to make that connection. And in the long run, made things soooo much easier because I could see it with my own eyes instead of trying to invent a careplan from a medical diagnosis that may or may not even apply to my patient.

That was very nice of you!

Welcome to AN! The largest online nursing community!

We require all students to post what their research has revealed to them first before we help. It is the goal of allnurses to help students become the best nurses they can be....we don't do homework. We will lead any student to that moment of "I get it" as long as they show us they have done some research.

Is giving someone the answers really going to help them in the long run? No, it's only going to encourage them to come back here for their next care plan instead of learning how to think critically about their patient's assessment and have nursing diagnoses specific to that patient. This is why we ask what students have so far and what they need clarification of/help with. Spoonfeeding is not the answer.
