Welcome to the site, Kevin! You sound like an instructor I'd have liked to have in school. Of course, I have had some great teachers, but you'd have been right up there.
Thank heavens you keep the Nursing Process in mind. I agree that it can be used in any situation, goal, etc. And with patients?! We all know that everyone is different!
I again welcome you to the site, and feel that you would be an asset to the site. Please feel free to jump in at any time, and add your thoughts/comments to things. They would be greatly appreciated.
