So, I am a 1st semester nursing student and we just started learning about how to write the beginning process of care plans. Currently, we are just writing out the diagnosis, plan (expected outcome), intervention, and evaluation. The problem I am having is that I cannot figure out why I am having such a hard time writing the diagnosis, outcome, and intervention! When I do, it sounds like I am just rewording my expected OUTCOME into my intervention. It's so frustrating!!! For example: Anxiety R/T test taking AEB inability to get enough sleep before a test, second guessing myself during the exam Plan (Expected Outcome): I will STATE I feel calm after the exam is over? I will VERBALIZE my that I am prepared and can pass the exam before the exam begins? I will DEMONSTRATE proper breathing techniques to calm myself before the exam begins? (Are these appropriate?) Intervention (THIS is where I am stuck?) Do I put "I will" or just "UTILIZE the wellness department at the college to help control my test anxiety"?? We are doing self care plans right now so this is where these are coming from. It's just confusing!! Am I crazy? Thank you!
