What is the difference between nursing implications and nursing interventions?

A dictionary can answer this question- and I say that not to be snarky, but you have posted another homework question.

Look it up FIRST and then come here for clarification if you don't find an answer.

Heck, if you google it, you'll find that this exact question has been answered *here* several times .

I don't mean this to be mean, I mean it to push you a little bit.

Ignore the qualifier "nursing" and just look at the words... do you really not have any notion as to the meanings of the words, "implication" and "intervention?"

I guess I'd start with the most fundamental difference between the two words and that is the direction... the implication is toward the nurse while the intervention is toward the patient. From there I'd refine it a bit and say that the implication is the result of deductive reasoning while the intervention is an action.

Implications and interventions are in no way the unique nor exclusive domain of nursing... You're doing yourself a grave disservice if you don't spend some time pondering the core meanings of words before you start thinking about them in the context of nursing.
