Nursing Logic In Nursing

ATI Assignment two

Nursing logic The second assignment on ATI was called Nursing Logic. Under this module, there were four units; knowledge and clinical judgment, nursing concepts, priority setting frameworks, and testing and remediation. These units provided rich explanations to nursing students on how to gain knowledge and obtain the necessary clinical judgment, the importance of prioritizing care in certain situations, and the values of testing and remediation throughout nursing school. Unit one discussed what knowledge is and how to obtain it. This unit stated that the ATI’s helix of success serves as guidance for knowledge and clinical judgment, which are the base for success in the nursing practice. For a nurse, having knowledge (first

These elements empowers the nurse to promote health and prevent diseases. Along with knowledge, clinical judgment (second vertical strand of the helix) is another important factor for a nurse to have in order to provide patient-centered care. Moreover, this unit revealed that there are two types of thinking; foundation which is the most basic level of thinking and critical, which is a higher level. To close this unit, communication was mentioned to be one of the most exercised factor in nursing field. Therefore, it is highly important for a future nurse to present a correct body language and speech when communicating with patients and family members to avoid misinterpretation from them.

In this model, the base of the pyramid, which is physiological needs (oxygen, nutrition and more), is the most important factor for a person’s survival. The other four components of the pyramid are safety and security; being the second most important need, love and belonging, self-esteem, and the top and least important is self-actualization, which is hardly achieve by a person in their life time. The nursing process was the second priority-setting framework revised, which have five guidance steps for the nurse to plan patient-centered care. The abc’s assessment was the third item discussed. This setting is useful when assessing situations in such any of the client’s airway, breathing and circulation are obstructed. Moreover this unit revised, safety and risk reduction, least restrictive and least invasive priority settings, survival potential, and acute/urgent/unstable versus chronic/non urgent/stable findings. A nurse must assess the client’s needs and may then combine more than one of these priority setting frameworks in order to design a specific plan and possibly save somebody’s
