- She worked as the director of a research project
at McLean Hospital in Belmont, Massachusetts and published in 1972 The Discipline and Teaching of Nursing Process ( an evaluative study) - She served as a board member of Harvard Community Health Plan. NURSING THEORY: DELIBERATIVE NURSING PROCESS
- This theory is set in motion by the behaviour of
the patient. - According to the theory, all patient behaviour can be a cry for help, both verbal and non- verbal - It is up to the nurse to interpret the behaviour and determine the needs of the patient. The Deliberative Nursing Process has five stages: assessment diagnosis planning implementation evaluation. ASSESSMENT STAGE
The nurse completes a holistic assessment of the
patient's needs. - without taking the reason for the encounter into consideration. - The nurse uses a nursing framework to collect both subjective and objective data about the patient. DIAGNOSIS STAGE
The nurse uses her clinical judgment about health
problems.
The diagnosis can then be confirmed using links to
defining characteristics, related factors, and risk factors found in the patient's assessment. PLANNING STAGE
This addresses each of the problems identified in
the diagnosis. Each problem is given a specific goal or outcome Each goal or outcome is given nursing interventions to help achieve the goal. By the end of this stage, the nurse will have a nursing care plan. IMPLEMENTATION STAGE
The nurse begins using the nursing care plan.
EVALUATION STAGE
The nurse looks at the progress of the patient
toward the goals set in the nursing care plan. Changes can be made to the nursing care plan based on how well (or poorly) the patient is progressing toward the goals.
If any new problems are identified in the
evaluation stage, they can be addressed, and the process starts over again for those specific problems. GOAL The goal for this model is for a nurse to act deliberately rather than automatically.
This way, a nurse will have a meaning behind the
action which means the patient gets care geared specifically toward his or her needs at that time. This nursing process is also one that can easily be adapted to different patients with different problems, and can be stopped at anytime, depending on the patient's progress or health. This makes Orlando's theory universal for the nursing field. - Nursing care has to be flexible. - Not only does a nursing care plan depend on the needs of the patient at the time of admittance, but it also needs to be able to change when and if any complications come up during the treatment and recovery process Ida Jean Orlando's “Deliberative Nursing Process “ directly addresses this need for flexibility, and helps nurses focus on the patient rather than simply sticking to a nursing care plan no matter what. METAPARADIGM Human – an individual in need. Unique individual verbally or non verbally. Assumption is that individuals are at times able to meet their own needs and at order times unable to do so. Health Assumption – is that being without emotional or physical discomfort and having a sense of well-being contribute to a healthy state. She further assumed that freedom from mental or physical discomfort and feelings of adequacy and well being contribute to health. Environment – Orlando assumes it as a nursing situation that occurs hen there is a nurse- patient contact and that both nurse and patients perceive, think, feel, and act in the immediate situation. ‘ Nursing – a distinct profession “Providing direct assistance to individuals in whatever setting they are found for he purpose of avoiding , relieving, diminishing or curing the individual’s sense of helplessness”. Professional nursing is conceptualized as finding out and meeting the client’s immediate need for help. IDA JEAN ORLANDO AUGUST 1926 – NOVEMBER 2007
