Nursing Process and Care Planning mind maps

Using Nursing Process and Care Planning mind maps

These maps bring together different aspects of care planning. The map on initial nursing admission assessment connects assessment with the nurse's ethical, professional and legal role. Parkinson's Disease includes symptoms, medications and a nursing care plan, while C. Difficile includes symptoms, tests and care actions.

Start with Fractured Hip if you want to follow a case: its branches include symptoms, mobility and care concerns. Read across the branches and practice explaining how the concerns relate to the care described.

Compare the branches in another map, such as Small Bowel Obstruction, to see how a different case is organized. If you want to check your understanding with questions, switch to a quiz on the unit page. Flashcards can help when you want to focus on terms instead of a whole case.

Choose a case and trace its care concerns through the map.
