Abstract

Implementation of the nursing process in practical nursing can be achieved in accordance with the principles of action research. A pre-requisite of the action research is a knowledge of the basic principles and the component areas of the nursing process, and of the opportunities for applying the nursing process to practical work. The documentation of the nursing of the patient is one clear object in which the model of the nursing process takes concrete shape. Another prominent form of action is the analysis of the content of the nursing, and on the basis of this framework the needs of individual patients can be determined and evaluated. Important methods in action research are consulting and work guidance. The researcher, together with the workers, endeavours to develop the work of nursing and to seek opportunities and methods to carry out the nursing process model.
