The Registered Nurse utilizes the nursing care process consistent with their license and/or certification, including initiation of culturally competent continuum of care across inpatient, outpatient, and community settings. The Registered Nurse oversees coordination of the interdisciplinary plan of care, ensuring consistency with the medical treatment plan.

Planning – the identification of actual or potential problems and desired outcomes (goals), resulting in a documented plan of care that provides direction for the patient/family and the interdisciplinary team. Intervention – the specific interventions or orders that are implemented in accordance with the plan of care and the medical treatment plan. Evaluation – determining the effectiveness of the interventions in achieving the plan of care and drawing conclusions regarding the achievement or lack of achievement of desired outcomes. The evaluation may initiate the need for reassessment and revisions to the problems, goals, plan, and interventions, and requires documentation of required actions.
