Four Foundational Nursing Assessment Principles A nurse must evaluate after a patient checks into a hospital or healthcare institution to comprehend the patient’s situation and condition. In some situations, especially when performing a diagnosis, this initial assessment may be a matter of life or death. This brings us to our following nursing principle…
Diagnosis After the evaluation, the patient can be given a straightforward diagnosis. A nurse may need to ask the patient additional questions to diagnose the condition accurately. Although a doctor may follow up and formally confirm a nurse’s diagnosis, the nurse frequently provides the evaluation and diagnosis to the doctor beforehand.

Care Program A nurse must develop a plan for the patient’s care after diagnosis. This strategy must be in line with the evaluation and its corresponding diagnosis.
Medical Assistance Depending on the patient’s needs, a nurse may be able to contact a doctor for additional diagnosis or evaluation. This reassures the patient that the first medical care has the backing of another medical expert.
