An essential role of a nurse is to recognize and manage patients’ changing conditions in order to prevent complications and ensure positive outcomes. Nurses collect patient data from multiple sources that they then analyze to formulate nursing care plans, implement care decisions, evaluate patient responses and communicate the information to other members of the health care team. The nursing process guides the nurse when gathering and analyzing information. It is an effective method of problem solving and provides a framework with which to make informed decisions regarding a patient’s plan of care.
