Nursing diagnosis & intervention - Gertrude K McFarland

Nursing Diagnosis & Intervention: Planning for Patient Care is a comprehensive presentation of the theory and practice of nursing diagnosis based on current research. The text uses a narrative format to explain nursing diagnosis rather than using a strictly list format. The narrative format allows the text to serve both as a tool for teaching students how to formulate a nursing diagnosis and write a care plan, and as a resource for practising nurses who need clear assessment parameters as well as directions for planning care.
