13. The concept of the nursing process, its purpose and ways to achieve it

Currently nursing process is the core of nursing education and creates a theoretical scientific basis nursing care in Russia.

Nursing process is a scientific method of nursing practice, a systematic way of identifying the patient and nurse situation and the problems that arise in that situation in order to implement a plan of care that is acceptable to both parties.

The nursing process is one of the basic and integral concepts of modern models of nursing.

The goal of the nursing process is maintaining and restoring the patient’s independence in meeting the basic needs of the body.

Achieving the goal of the nursing process carried out by solving the following tasks:

1) creating a patient information database;

2) determining the patient's needs for nursing care;

3) designation of priorities in nursing care, their priority;

4) drawing up a care plan, mobilizing the necessary resources and implementing the plan, that is, providing nursing care directly and indirectly;

5) assessing the effectiveness of the patient care process and achieving the goals of care.

The nursing process brings a new understanding of the role of the nurse in practical healthcare, requiring from her not only technical training, but also the ability to be creative in caring for patients, the ability to individualize and systematize care. Specifically, it involves the use of scientific methods to determine the health needs of the patient, family or society, and on this basis the selection of those that can be most effectively met through nursing care.

The nursing process is a dynamic, cyclical process. Information obtained from assessing the results of care should form the basis for the necessary changes, subsequent interventions, and actions of the nurse.

14. Stages of the nursing process, their relationship and the content of each stage

I stage– nursing assessment or assessment of the situation to determine the patient's needs and the resources needed for nursing care.

II stage– nursing diagnosis, identification of patient problems or nursing diagnoses. Nursing diagnosis- this is the patient’s health status (current and potential), established as a result of a nursing examination and requiring intervention by the nurse.

Stage III– planning necessary assistance to the patient.

Planning refers to the process of forming goals (i.e., desired outcomes of care) and the nursing interventions necessary to achieve these goals.

IV stage– implementation (implementation of the nursing intervention (care) plan).

V stage– outcome assessment (summary assessment of nursing care). Evaluating the effectiveness of the care provided and adjusting it if necessary.

Documentation of the nursing process is carried out in nursing card monitoring the patient's health condition, integral part which is the nursing care plan.

15. Principles of record keeping

1) clarity in the choice of words and in the entries themselves;

2) brief and unambiguous presentation of information;

3) coverage of all basic information;

4) use only generally accepted abbreviations.

Each entry must be preceded by a date and time, and the entry must be followed by the signature of the nurse writing the report.

1. Describe the patient’s problems in your own words. This will help you discuss care issues with him and help him better understand the care plan.

2. Call goals what you want to achieve together with the patient. Be able to formulate goals, for example: the patient will have no (or reduced) unpleasant symptoms (indicate which ones), then indicate the period within which, in your opinion, a change in health status will occur.

3. Create individual patient care plans based on standard care plans. This will reduce plan writing time and define a scientific approach to nursing planning.

4. Keep the care plan in a place convenient for you, the patient and everyone involved in the nursing process, and then any member of the team (shift) can use it.

5. Mark the deadline (date, deadline, minutes) for the implementation of the plan, indicate that assistance was provided in accordance with the plan (do not duplicate entries, save time). Sign the specific section of the plan and include any additional information that was not planned but was required. Correct the plan.

6. Involve the patient in keeping records related to self-care or e.g. water balance daily diuresis.

7. Train everyone involved in care (relatives, support staff) to perform certain elements of care and record them.

The period of implementation of the nursing process is quite long, so the following problems related to documentation may arise:

1) the impossibility of abandoning old methods of record keeping;

2) duplication of documentation;

3) the care plan should not distract from the main thing - “providing assistance.” To avoid this, it is important to view documentation as a natural progression of the continuum of care;

4) documentation reflects the ideology of its developers and depends on the nursing model, therefore it is subject to change.

16. Methods of nursing interventions

Nursing care is planned on the basis of failure to meet the patient's needs, rather than on the basis medical diagnosis, i.e. diseases.

Nursing interventions can also be ways to meet needs.

It is suggested to use the following methods:

1) provision of first aid;

2) fulfillment of medical prescriptions;

3) creating comfortable conditions for the patient in order to satisfy his basic needs;

4) providing psychological support and assistance to the patient and his family;

5) performing technical manipulations and procedures;

6) implementation of measures to prevent complications and promote health;

7) organizing training in conducting conversations and counseling the patient and his family members. Planning of necessary care is carried out on the basis of the classification of nursing actions according to the INCP (International Classification of Nursing Practice).

There are three types of nursing interventions:

1) dependent;

2) independent;

1) obtain a clear understanding of the patient before care planning begins;

2) try to determine what is normal for the patient, how he sees his normal state of health and what help he can provide himself;

3) identify the patient's unmet care needs;

4) establish effective communication with the patient and involve him in cooperation;

5) discuss care needs and expected care outcomes with the patient;

6) determine the patient’s degree of independence in care (independent, partially dependent, completely dependent, with the help of whom);

Conclusion.

Introduction

The modern concept of nursing, aimed at strengthening the status of the nurse, was adopted in Russia in 1993 at the international conference “New nurses for a new Russia. A notable recent event was the II All-Russian Congress of Medical Workers in October 2004, at which health care reform was discussed. More than 1,100 delegates and guests took part in its work.

Today, the topic “Modern ideas in the development of nursing” is very relevant, since we are faced with very serious tasks, the implementation of which will radically change the existing situation in nursing, as an integral part of organizational health care technology, aimed at solving the problems of individual and public health in today's complex and rapidly changing conditions.

Today, nursing is an art, a science, it requires understanding, application of special knowledge and skills.

Nursing is "the act of using the patient's environment to promote his recovery." Nursing is based on knowledge and technology created on the basis of the humanities and natural sciences: biology, medicine, psychology, sociology, and others.

The nurse accepts responsibility and acts with appropriate authority while directly performing professional duties. She is responsible for the medical services she provides. She has the right to independently evaluate and decide whether she needs further education in management, teaching, clinical work and research and to take steps to meet these needs.

Nursing involves the planning and delivery of care during illness and rehabilitation and considers the impact of various aspects of a person's life on health, illness, disability and death.

Founder of modern sisterhoodncivil affairs

Florence Nightingale, the first researcher and founder of modern nursing, revolutionized public consciousness and views on the role and place of the nurse in protecting public health. There are many definitions of nursing, each of which was influenced by the characteristics of the historical era and national culture, the level of socio-economic development of society, the demographic situation, the population's needs for medical care, the state of the health care system and the availability of its personnel, as well as the ideas and views of the person formulating this concept.

The first definition of nursing was given by Florence Nightingale in her famous “Notes on Nursing” (1859). Attaching particular importance to cleanliness, fresh air, silence, proper nutrition, she characterized nursing as “the act of using the patient’s environment to promote his recovery.” The most important task of the sister, according to Nightingale, was to create conditions for the patient under which nature itself would exert its healing effect. Nightingale called nursing an art, but she was convinced that this art required "organization, practical and scientific training."

Having for the first time identified two areas in nursing - caring for the sick and caring for healthy people, she defined caring for the healthy as “maintaining a person’s condition in which illness does not occur,” while nursing as “helping a person suffering from an illness to live the best possible life.” full life, bringing satisfaction." Nightingale expressed the firm belief that "at its core, nursing as a profession is different from medical practice and requires special, distinct knowledge." For the first time in history, she applied scientific methods to solving nursing problems. The first schools , created according to its model in Europe, and then in America, were autonomous and secular. Teaching in them was conducted by the nurses themselves, paying special attention to the formation of special nursing knowledge, skills and values. Professional values ​​meant respect for the patient’s personality, his honor, dignity and freedom, showing attention, love and care, maintaining confidentiality, as well as observing professional duty.It is no coincidence that the motto of the first honorary international sisterhood was the words: Love, Courage, Honor.

But after Nightingale’s death, forces began to develop in society that opposed her views and ideals. Rapid development in the first quarter of this century in a number of Western countries, including in the USA, capitalist market relations have not least affected the healthcare system. The development of medicine, as a profitable medical business in the West, provided the conditions for rapid technological progress and the creation of a complex system of providing medical services. In the process of forming the health care system in scientific, organizational and political terms, doctors and hospital administrations began to consider nurses only as a source of cheap labor that contributed to the achievement of economic goals.

Most nursing schools in the USA and Europe came under the control of hospitals, and doctors and hospital administrators began to provide theoretical and practical training in them. The nurses were only required to unquestioningly follow the doctor’s orders; their role increasingly began to be perceived as auxiliary.

However, despite the prevailing social conditions, nursing leaders from among the first graduates of Florence Nightingale's schools steadfastly followed the ideals of their outstanding mentor, striving to develop a body of specialized knowledge that forms the basis of professional nursing practice. They were actively involved in the development of independent nursing practice in hospitals, homes, and institutions where there was a need for such care on the part of individuals, families and community groups.

Nursing practice began to gradually transform into an independent professional activity based on theoretical knowledge, practical experience, scientific judgment and critical thinking. Interest in development scientific research in the field of nursing was partly due to the wide possibilities of using their results in the alternative supportive health services created after the Second World War in a number of Western countries. These, first of all, included nursing homes, in which professional nurses monitored and provided comprehensive care to the elderly, chronically ill and disabled people who did not need intensive therapeutic measures, i.e. in medical interventions. Nurses have taken responsibility for providing these patients with the required level of care and maintaining their optimal quality of life and well-being. The organization of nursing homes and units, as well as home care and nursing services for mothers and children from low-income communities, ensured greater access to health care for the population in the face of rampant price increases in the hospital health care sector.

The vast majority (about eighty percent) of the nurses continued to work in hospitals. However, the use of modern medical equipment and advanced technologies required a new level of knowledge from nurses. There was no doubt that the quality of nursing care is entirely determined by the level of professional education.

Students and followers of Florence Nightingale advocated for nursing education to take its rightful place in colleges and universities. The first university nursing training programs appeared in the United States at the end of the last century, but their number increased significantly in higher education institutions in America and Europe after the Second World War. Soon new theories and models of nursing began to appear, and after them even scientific schools with their authorities. Thus, the famous nursing theorist Virginia Hendensen, defining the relationship between the nurse and the patient, noted that “the unique task of the nurse in the process of caring for individuals, sick or healthy, is to assess the patient’s attitude towards his state of health and help him in carrying out those actions to strengthen and restore health that he could perform himself if he had enough strength, will and knowledge for this.” According to another researcher, Dorothea Orem, "the main purpose of the nurse's activity should be to support the patient's ability to take care of himself."

In professional nursing communication, new terms increasingly appeared, such as “nursing process”, “nursing diagnosis”, etc. They were given a place in new formulations of nursing. For example, in 1980, the American Nursing Association defined the task of nursing as “the ability to make a nursing diagnosis and adjust the patient's response to illness.” Let us clarify that a nursing diagnosis differs from a medical diagnosis in that it determines not the disease, but the patient’s response to the disease. Evolving nursing knowledge required further discussion, testing, application and dissemination.

In 1952, the first international scientific journal on nursing, Nursing Research, was published. Currently, about two hundred professional nursing magazines are published in America alone. By 1960, doctoral programs in nursing began to appear. By the end of the seventies, the number of nurses with a doctorate degree in the United States reached 2000. In 1973, the National Academy of Nursing Sciences was created in America, and in 1985, the US Congress passed legislation that created the National Center for Nursing Research within the National Institutes of Health.

However, such favorable conditions for the development of nursing were not everywhere. Neglect of the nursing profession and misuse of nursing personnel in many countries have hampered the development of not only nursing care, but also health care in general. In the words of the eminent researcher and promoter of nursing in Europe, Dorothy Hall, “Many of the problems facing national health services today could have been avoided if nursing had developed at the same rate over the past forty years.” medical science". "The reluctance to admit," she writes, "that the nurse occupies an equal position in relation to the doctor, has led to the fact that nursing care has not received such development as medical practice, depriving both sick and healthy people of the opportunity to benefit from diverse, accessible, cost-effective nursing services.”

However, nurses in all countries of the world are increasingly expressing their desire to make a professional contribution to the creation of a qualitatively new level of medical care for the population. In the context of global and regional, social and economic, political and national transformations, they see their role in society differently, sometimes acting not only as a medical worker, but also as an educator, teacher, and patient advocate. At a meeting of national representatives of the International Council of Sisters, held in New Zealand in 1987, the following wording was unanimously adopted: “Nursing is an integral part of the health care system and includes activities to promote health, prevent disease, provide psychosocial assistance and care to people with physical and mental illness, as well as disabled people of all age groups. Such assistance is provided by nurses both in medical and any other institutions, as well as at home, wherever there is a need for it.”

I would like to believe that our Russian sisters are awakening a sense of professional self-awareness, that we are becoming equal participants in the transformation of the national healthcare system and members of the international nursing community. The future of nursing in Russia is in our hands; it depends on each of us, on each nursing team. And let the new professional magazine “Nursing” become a kind and wise assistant and advisor in all our endeavors.

Our compatriots in the history of sistersncivil affairs.

There is probably no person who does not know who nurses are. Many will remember that until 1917, nurses were called sisters of mercy or merciful sisters. Someone, perhaps, will remember that the sisters of mercy first appeared in Russia during the Crimean War of 1854-1855 in besieged Sevastopol, and will even argue that their appearance is connected with the name of the great Russian surgeon Nikolai Ivanovich Pirogov. But this will not be an entirely correct statement, because the institute of sisters of mercy owes its appearance not so much to Pirogov as to one remarkable woman, once very famous, but now, unfortunately, very rarely remembered - Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna. It would seem that God gave this woman everything she needed for happiness: beauty, intelligence, a home - a beautiful palace, delight and veneration of outstanding people of her time, and finally, a large family - a husband and five daughters. But this happiness did not last long: in 1832, one-year-old daughter Alexandra died, and in 1836, two-year-old Anna died; in 1845, nineteen-year-old Elizabeth died, and a year later, the eldest daughter Maria, who was only 21 years old. In 1849, Mikhail Pavlovich died, and Grand Duchess widowed at the age of 43. After this, Elena Pavlovna completely devoted herself to social and charitable activities.

Back in 1828, Empress Maria Feodorovna bequeathed to her the management of the Mariinsky and Midwifery Institutes, and since then, the problems of medicine have been constantly in her field of vision. She, however, was accused of patronage and patronage mainly of German doctors, but it is unlikely that such reproaches were fair if we remember her participation in the fate of the outstanding Russian doctor Nikolai Ivanovich Pirogov...

In 1856, at the request of the same Elena Pavlovna, a medal was minted to reward especially distinguished sisters of the Holy Cross community. At the same time, Empress Alexandra Feodorovna, the widow of Nicholas I, established a similar medal. Elena Pavlovna died on January 3 (15), 1873. In the same year, it was decided to implement one of her latest plans - to build an institute for advanced training of doctors in St. Petersburg.

Concept of nursingm process.

The nursing process is one of the basic concepts of modern nursing models. In accordance with the requirements of the State educational standard in nursing, the nursing process is a method of organizing and performing nursing care for a patient, aimed at meeting the physical, psychological, social needs of a person, family, and society.

The nursing process requires from the nurse not only good technical training, but also a creative attitude towards patient care, the ability to work with the patient as an individual, and not as an object of manipulation. The constant presence of the nurse and her contact with the patient make the nurse the main link between the patient and the outside world.

The nursing process consists of five oWithnew stages.

1. Nursing examination. Collection of information about the patient’s health status, which can be subjective and objective. The subjective method is physiological, psychological, social data about the patient; relevant environmental data. The source of information is a survey of the patient, his physical examination, study of medical documentation data, conversation with the doctor, and the patient’s relatives. Objective method is a physical examination of the patient, including assessment and description of various parameters (appearance, state of consciousness, position in bed, degree of dependence on external factors, color and humidity skin and mucous membranes, the presence of edema). The examination also includes measuring the patient's height, determining his body weight, measuring temperature, counting and estimating the number breathing movements, pulse, measurement and assessment of blood pressure.

The end result of this stage of the nursing process is the documentation of the information received and the creation of a nursing medical history, which is a legal protocol - a document of the independent professional activity of the nurse.

2. Identifying the patient's problems and formulating a nursing diagnosis. The patient's problems are divided into existing and potential. Existing problems are those problems that are currently bothering the patient. Potential - those that do not yet exist, but may arise over time. Having established both types of problems, the nurse determines the factors that contribute to or cause the development of these problems, and also identifies strengths the patient, which he can confront the problems.

Since a patient always has several problems, the nurse must establish a system of priorities. Priorities are classified as primary and secondary. Primary priority is given to problems that are likely to have the greatest impact harmful influence on the patient.

The second stage ends with the establishment of a nursing diagnosis. There is a difference between medical and nursing diagnosis. Medical diagnosis focuses on recognizing pathological conditions, while nursing diagnosis is based on describing patients' reactions to health problems. The American Nurses Association, for example, identifies the following as the main health problems: limited self-care, disruption of the normal functioning of the body, psychological and communication disorders, problems associated with life cycles. As nursing diagnoses, they use, for example, phrases such as “deficiency of hygiene skills and sanitary conditions”, “decreased individual ability to overcome stressful situations", "worry", etc.

3. Determining the goals of nursing care and planning nursing activities. The nursing care plan must include operational and tactical goals aimed at achieving specific long-term or short-term results.

When forming goals, it is necessary to take into account the action (execution), criterion (date, time, distance, expected result) and conditions (with the help of what and by whom). For example, “the goal is that the patient, with the help of a nurse, should get out of bed by January 5.” Action - get out of bed, criterion January 5, condition - help from a nurse.

After determining nursing goals and objectives, the nurse develops a written nursing care manual that details the nurse's specific nursing actions to be recorded in the nursing record.

4. Implementation of planned actions. This stage includes the measures that the nurse takes to prevent diseases, examine, treat, and rehabilitate patients. There are three categories of nursing interventions. The choice of category is determined by the needs of the patients.

Dependent nursing intervention is carried out on the basis of physician orders and under his supervision. Independent nursing intervention involves actions carried out by the nurse on his own initiative, guided by his own considerations, without direct demands from the doctor. For example, teaching the patient hygiene skills, organizing the patient’s leisure time, etc.

Interdependent nursing intervention involves the joint activities of the nurse with the doctor, as well as with other specialists. In all types of interactions, the sister's responsibility is exceptionally great.

5. Assessing the effectiveness of nursing care. This stage is based on the study of the dynamic reactions of patients to the nurse's interventions. The sources and criteria for assessing nursing care are the following factors: assessing the patient's response to nursing interventions; the following factors serve to assess the degree to which the goals of nursing care have been achieved: assessment of the patient’s response to nursing interventions; assessing the degree to which nursing care goals have been achieved; assessing the effectiveness of nursing care on the patient’s condition; active search and assessment of new patient problems.

An important role in the reliability of assessing the results of nursing care is played by the comparison and analysis of the results obtained.

Conclusion.

The goal of the nursing process is to maintain and restore the patient's independence and meet the basic needs of the body.

In conclusion, we can conclude that modern performance about the development of nursing in society is to help individuals, families and groups to develop their physical, mental and social potential and maintain it at an appropriate level, regardless of changing living and working conditions.

This requires the nurse to work to promote and maintain health, as well as to prevent diseases.

CODE OF ETHICS OF NURSE RUSSIA

Taking into account the most important role in modern society of the most widespread of medical professions - the profession of a nurse; taking into account the traditionally great importance of ethics in medicine and healthcare; Guided by the documents on medical ethics of the International Council of Nurses and the World Health Organization, the Association of Russian Nurses adopts this Code of Ethics.

PARTI. GENERAL PROVISIONS

The ethical basis of the professional activity of a nurse is humanity and mercy. The most important tasks of a nurse’s professional activity are: comprehensive comprehensive care for patients and alleviation of their suffering; health restoration and rehabilitation; promoting health and preventing disease.

The Code of Ethics provides clear moral guidelines for the professional activity of a nurse and is designed to promote consolidation, increase the prestige and authority of the nursing profession in society, and the development of nursing in Russia.

Fundamentals of Nursing

Illness and physical suffering often give rise to increased irritability in the patient, a feeling of anxiety and dissatisfaction, sometimes even hopelessness, and dissatisfaction with people around him. Medical personnel must be able to protect the patient from the influence of negative factors and distract him from excessive concentration on his painful condition.

During hospitalization in a hospital, it is necessary to decide on the methods of transporting the patient. If you can move independently, there is no need to use a stretcher or gurney. After admission to emergency department held sanitization. Subsequently, it is repeated every 7 days with a change of linen. Depending on the condition, the patient is prescribed a specific mode– strict bed, in which one is not even allowed to sit; bed, when you can move in bed without leaving it; semi-bed, allowing movement around the premises; general, not significantly limiting the patient’s motor activity. The less limited physical activity, the more the patient’s ability to self-care is preserved. However, this does not relieve nursing staff from the need for appropriate care, providing the diet and diet recommended by the doctor, monitoring the condition and fulfilling medical prescriptions.

The temperature in hospital premises should be constant (within 18–20 °C), and the relative humidity should be 30–60%. The premises must be well ventilated daily. There should be daylight in the room, which affects the mood and condition of the patient. Light intensity decreases only in certain diseases of the eyes and nervous system.

Rooms must be cleaned at least twice a day. Window frames, doors, furniture are wiped with a damp rag, the floor is washed or wiped with a brush wrapped in a damp rag. It is better to remove carpets, curtains and other objects where dust can accumulate from the room or frequently shake it out or clean it with a vacuum cleaner. The volume of radios and televisions must be reduced, and conversations should not be loud.

Body care: if the patient is on bed rest, he is wiped daily with a sponge or towel moistened with warm water or some kind of disinfectant solution (camphor alcohol, table vinegar, etc.). Before wiping, an oilcloth is placed. The skin is wiped sequentially, special attention is paid to the treatment of folds behind the ears, under the mammary glands in women, in the gluteal-femoral folds, armpits, interdigital spaces of the legs, and perineum. After wet wiping, the skin is wiped dry. If there are no contraindications, patients wash in the shower or take a hygienic bath. Hygienic baths are contraindicated when hemorrhagic syndromes, severe general exhaustion, myocardial infarction, acute cardiovascular failure, cerebrovascular accident. The bathtub must first be washed and treated with a disinfectant solution. After use, washcloths and brushes are dipped in a disinfectant solution, for example solutions of 0.5% clarified bleach or 2% chloramine, and then boiled. The temperature of the bath water should be warm (about 38 °C). The patient is helped to carefully immerse himself in the water; leaving him alone in the bath is not recommended. If necessary, the patient is helped to wash. Washing in the shower is easier for patients. The temperature in the bathroom should be comfortable and drafts should be avoided. Patients with urinary and fecal incontinence, as well as those on bed rest, must be washed at least twice a day with warm water or a weak solution of potassium permanganate from an Esmarch mug with a rubber tube and a clamp or a jug. Additionally, you must have a vessel, oilcloth, forceps, and cotton swabs. For diaper rash in groin areas The skin is lubricated with sunflower oil, Vaseline, and baby cream. If there are wet surfaces, use talc or baby powder. Areas of skin redness, especially in bedridden patients, are wiped with camphor alcohol, lemon pulp, a solution of brilliant green, and irradiated with quartz. To prevent incipient bedsores, the patient is placed on a rubber circle covered with a cotton bedding. In this case, the sacrum should be above the center of the circle. For fecal and urinary incontinence, a rubber bed is used instead of a circle. It is very important to ensure that the patient does not remain in one position for a long time. It needs to be turned. Underwear in such patients should be changed at least once a week, and for urinary and fecal incontinence - several times a day after appropriate washing.

Needs attention hair care. It is advisable for men to have their hair cut short. Each patient should have an individual comb. Bedridden patients wash their hair in bed at least once a week. If hair lice are detected, appropriate sanitary treatment is carried out using insecticides. If your hair is short, it is better to cut it and burn it. If pubic lice are detected, the pubic hair is covered with a generous amount of soap suds and shaved off. The skin is washed with warm water and sublimate vinegar (1:300) is rubbed in or treated with ointments: sulfur 33% or mercury sulfur 5-10%. After a few hours, the pubic area is washed with soap. Nails are trimmed with small scissors. After use, scissors are wiped with alcohol, a 3% carbolic acid solution or a 0.5% chloramine solution.

Eye care It usually comes down to washing them when the secretions stick together the eyelashes and form crusts on the eyelids. Rinsing is carried out with sterile gauze swabs moistened with a warm solution of boric acid 3%, in the direction from the outer corner of the eye to the inner. Bedridden patients need to clean the nasal passages with a cotton swab moistened with petroleum jelly or glycerin.

Oral care: in severely ill patients, after each meal, the oral cavity is treated with a cotton ball moistened with a weak solution of potassium permanganate, boric acid, soda or boiled water, food debris is removed from the oral mucosa and teeth. After this, the patient rinses his mouth. It is better to treat the oral cavity in a sitting or semi-sitting position. The neck and chest are covered with oilcloth, and a tray or basin is placed under the chin. Bad breath is reduced by rinsing with a 2% soda solution. Removable dentures are removed at night and washed with soap.

Physiological functions: For bedridden patients, a bedpan and a urine bag are used. Before use, the vessel is rinsed with warm water and a small amount of water is left in it. After completing the physiological functions, the perineal area is cared for, the vessel is washed, disinfected, for example, with a 3% chloramine solution or bleach and rinsed. In men, a urinal is more often used, which is located between the slightly spread thighs with a pipe towards the penis. The urine is poured out, and the urine bag is washed and disinfected. To remove the ammonia odor, the urinal is periodically washed with a weak solution of hydrochloric acid.

Patient nutrition: it is necessary to follow a strict diet. In this case, attention should be paid to setting the table or bedside table. For certain diseases, a corresponding treatment table is prescribed:

Table zero - first days postoperative period during interventions on the stomach and intestines, semi-consciousness due to impaired cerebral circulation, traumatic brain injuries, and feverish conditions.

Section 1. Introduction to the discipline “Fundamentals of Nursing”

1. State organizational structures dealing with nursing issues

Russia has a healthcare system with various forms property: state, municipal And private. It resolves issues of social policy and has three levels of management organization.

1. Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, in which there are departments:

1) organization of medical care;

2) protection of maternal and child health;

3) scientific and educational medical institutions;

4) personnel, etc.;

2. Ministry of Health of the region (territory);

3. health department under the city administration.

The task of social policy is to achieve a level of health that will allow a person to live productively with the longest possible life expectancy.

The main priority areas of social policy in the field of healthcare:

1) development of laws to implement reforms;

2) protection of motherhood and childhood;

3) financing reform ( health insurance, the use of funds from various funds to support and treat relevant categories of the population - pensioners, unemployed, etc.);

4) compulsory health insurance;

5) reorganization of primary health care;

6) drug provision;

7) personnel training;

8) healthcare informatization.

The basic basis of the healthcare system should be the adoption of the laws of the Russian Federation “On State system healthcare”, “On the rights of the patient”, etc.

Already today, markets for medical services are being formed, medical and preventive institutions are being created with various forms of ownership, day-care hospitals, hospices, palliative medicine institutions, i.e., institutions where care is provided to the hopelessly ill and dying. In 1995 there were already 26 hospices in Russia, in 2000 there were already more than 100.

2. Main types of treatment and preventive institutions

There are two main types of treatment and prevention institutions: outpatient And stationary.

Outpatient facilities include:

1) outpatient clinics;

2) clinics;

3) medical units;

4) dispensaries;

5) consultations;

6) ambulance stations.

Inpatient institutions include:

1) hospitals;

2) clinics;

3) hospitals;

4) maternity hospitals;

5) sanatoriums;

6) hospices.

In order to improve the quality of medical and preventive work, since 1947, Russia has been merging clinics with outpatient clinics and hospitals. This organization of work helps to improve the qualifications of doctors, and thereby improve the quality of service to the population.

3. Structure and main functions of hospitals

There are general, republican, regional, regional, city, district, rural hospitals, which are often located in the center of the service area. Specialized hospitals (oncology, tuberculosis, etc.) are located depending on their profile, often on the outskirts or outside the city, in a green area. There are three main types of hospital construction:

2) centralized; 1) pavilion;

3) mixed.

With the pavilion system, small separate buildings are located on the hospital premises. The centralized type of construction is characterized by the fact that buildings are connected by covered above-ground or underground corridors. Most often built in Russia mixed type hospitals, where the main non-infectious departments are located in one large building, and infectious diseases departments, outbuildings and the like are located in several small buildings. The hospital site is divided into three zones:

1) buildings;

2) utility yard area;

3) protective green zone.

The medical and economic zones must have separate entrances.

The hospital consists of the following facilities:

1) a hospital with specialized departments and wards;

2) auxiliary departments (X-ray room, pathology department) and laboratory;

3) pharmacies;

4) clinics;

5) catering unit;

6) laundry;

7) administrative and other premises.

Hospitals are for permanent treatment and caring for patients with certain diseases, such as surgical, medical, infectious, psychotherapeutic, etc.

The hospital inpatient setting is the most important structural unit, where they admit patients who require modern, sophisticated diagnostic methods and treatment, and provide treatment, care and other cultural and everyday services.

The structure of a hospital of any profile includes wards for accommodating patients, utility rooms and a sanitary unit, specialized rooms (procedural, treatment and diagnostic), as well as a resident’s room, a nursing room, and the office of the head of the department. The equipment and facilities of the wards correspond to the profile of the department and sanitary standards. There are single and multi-bed wards. The ward has:

1) bed (regular and functional);

2) bedside tables;

3) tables or table;

4) chairs;

5) a wardrobe for the patient’s clothes;

6) refrigerator;

7) washbasin.

The beds are placed with the head end to the wall at a distance of 1 m between the beds for the convenience of transferring the patient from a gurney or stretcher to the bed and caring for him. Communication between the patient and the nurse's station is carried out using an intercom or light alarm. In specialized departments of the hospital, each bed is provided with a device for centralized oxygen supply and other medical equipment.

The lighting of the wards complies with sanitary standards (see SanPiN 5.). It is determined in the daytime by the light coefficient, which is equal to the ratio of the window area to the floor area, respectively 1: 5–1: 6. In the evening, the chambers are illuminated with fluorescent lamps or incandescent lamps. In addition to general lighting, there is also individual lighting. At night, the wards are illuminated by a night lamp installed in a niche near the door at a height of 0.3 m from the floor (except for children's hospitals, where lamps are installed above the doorways).

Ventilation of the rooms is carried out using a supply and exhaust system of ducts, as well as transoms and vents at the rate of 25 m 3 of air per person per hour. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the air environment of the room should not exceed 0.1%, relative humidity 30–45%.

The air temperature in the rooms of adults does not exceed 20 °C, for children – 22 °C.

The department has a distribution room and a canteen, providing simultaneous food intake for 50% of patients.

The department corridor must ensure the free movement of gurneys and stretchers. It serves as an additional air reservoir in the hospital and has natural and artificial lighting.

The sanitary unit consists of several separate rooms, specially equipped and designed to carry out:

1) personal hygiene of the patient (bathroom, washroom);

2) sorting dirty laundry;

3) storage of clean linen;

4) disinfection and storage of vessels and urinals;

5) storage of cleaning equipment and overalls for service personnel.

Infectious diseases departments of hospitals have boxes, semi-boxes, regular wards and consist of several separate sections that ensure the functioning of the department when quarantine is established in one of them.

Each department has, in accordance with the established procedure, an internal department routine that is mandatory for staff and patients, which ensures that patients comply with the medical and protective regime: sleep and rest, dietary food, systematic observation and care, implementation of medical procedures, etc.

4. Contents of the activities of a paramedical worker

TO functional responsibilities hospital nurses include:

1) compliance with the medical and protective regime of the department;

2) timely implementation of medical prescriptions;

3) patient care;

4) assistance to the patient during examination by a doctor;

5) monitoring the general condition of patients;

6) provision of first aid;

7) compliance with the sanitary and anti-epidemic regime;

8) timely transmission of an emergency notification to the Center for State Sanitary and Epidemiological Surveillance (State Sanitary and Epidemiological Surveillance Center) about an infectious patient;

9) receiving medicines and ensuring their storage and accounting;

10) as well as management of junior medical staff of the department.

Nurses are required to systematically improve their qualifications, attend classes and conferences organized in the department and medical institution.

Community (family) nurse at a polyclinic, who works at a doctor's appointment, helps him, draws up various documentation, and teaches patients how to prepare for various procedures, laboratory and instrumental tests. A clinic nurse works from home: carries out medical appointments, teaches relatives necessary elements care, gives recommendations on creating comfortable conditions for the patient in order to satisfy his vital physiological needs, provides psychological support to the patient and his family, carries out measures to prevent complications and improve the health of his patients.

Responsibilities of a paramedic quite wide, especially in the absence of a doctor. At a paramedic-midwife station (FAP), a paramedic independently performs inpatient, consultative, outpatient care, home care, sanitary and preventive work, prescribes medications from a pharmacy, etc. In a medical and preventive institution (MPI) - works under the guidance of a doctor .

Contents of the activities of a maternity hospital midwife and antenatal clinic depends on the specific characteristics of the job. She independently or together with a doctor delivers babies, provides medical and preventive care for pregnant women, mothers and newborns. She actively identifies gynecological patients, conducts psycho-preventive preparation of women for childbirth, monitors the pregnant woman, and ensures that pregnant women undergo all necessary research. A midwife, like a clinic nurse, carries out a lot of patronage work and directly performs the duties of a nurse.

To perform their duties, a paramedic, nurse and midwife must have a certain amount of knowledge and practical skills, be responsible for the care process and show mercy. They improve their professional, psychological and spiritual qualities in order to provide the patient optimal care, to satisfy physiological needs patient and protect public health.

They participate in the work to eliminate infectious foci, carry out preventive vaccinations, and, together with a doctor, carry out sanitary supervision of children's institutions.

Paramedical workers with special training , can work in radiology; physiotherapy and other specialized departments and offices.

For assigning to themselves functions to which they do not have the right, paramedical workers bear disciplinary or criminal liability. 5. Philosophy of nursing

Philosophy (from Phil and Greek sophia “love and wisdom”, “love of wisdom”) is a form of human spiritual activity, which reflects issues of a holistic picture of the world, the position of man in the world, the relationship between man and the world as a result of this interactions. The need for a philosophical understanding of nursing arose because new terms increasingly appeared in professional nursing communication, which were clarified, developed, and discussed. They are still being discussed. There is a need for a new quality of nurse knowledge.

At the I All-Russian Scientific and Practical Conference on the Theory of Nursing, held July 27-August 14, 1993 in Golitsino, new terms and concepts were introduced into nursing. According to international agreement, the philosophy of nursing is based on four basic concepts, such as:

1) patient;

2) sister, nursing;

3) environment;

4) health.

Patient- a person who needs and receives nursing care.

Sister– a specialist with professional education who shares the philosophy of nursing

and eligible for nursing work.

Nursing- part of the medical care of the patient, his health, science and art aimed at solving existing and potential health problems in changing environmental conditions.

Environment– a set of natural, social, psychological and spiritual factors and indicators in which human life takes place.

Health– dynamic harmony of the individual with the environment, achieved through adaptation, a means of life.

Basic principles of nursing philosophy are respect for life, dignity, human rights.

The implementation of the principles of nursing philosophy depends on the interaction between the nurse and society.

These principles include the responsibility of the nurse to society, the patient and the responsibility of society to nurse. Society is obliged to recognize the important role of nursing in the healthcare system, regulate, and encourage it through the publication of legislative acts.

The essence of the modern model of nursing as a scientific theory is the substantiation of various approaches to the content and provision of nursing care.

The concept has entered the professional lexicon "nursing process", which is understood as a systematic approach to providing nursing care, focused on the needs of the patient.

Currently, the nursing process is the core of nursing education in Russia.

A theoretical scientific basis for nursing care is being created. Through the nursing process, the nurse must gain professional independence and independence, be not just an executor of the doctor’s will, but turn into a creative person who can understand and see in each patient a personality, his inner spiritual world. Russian healthcare is in dire need of nurses who master the modern philosophy of nursing, know human psychology, and are capable of teaching.

The essence of nursing philosophy is that it is the foundation professional life nurse, an expression of her worldview and forms the basis of her work and communication with the patient.

A sister who shares the accepted philosophy accepts the following: ethical responsibilities(whether we are doing it right or wrong):

1) tell the truth;

2) do good;

3) do no harm;

4) respect the obligations of others;

5) keep your word;

6) be loyal;

7) respect the patient’s right to independence.

According to the theory of nursing philosophy, the goals that a nurse strives for, i.e., the results of her activities, are called ethical values ​​(ideals): professionalism, health, healthy environment, independence, human dignity, care (care).

The philosophy of nursing also reflects the personal qualities of a nurse that a good nurse should have - virtues that determine what is good and what is evil in people: knowledge, skill, compassion, patience, determination, mercy.

Ethical principles define the Code of Ethics for Nurses in each country, including

Russia, and are standards of behavior for nurses and a means of self-government for a professional nurse.

6. Nursing deontology

Nursing deontology– the science of duty to the patient and society, professional behavior of a medical worker, is part of nursing ethics.

Our compatriot A.P. Chekhov wrote: “The medical profession is a feat. It requires selflessness, purity of soul and purity of thoughts. Not everyone is capable of this."

A medical worker is entrusted with the most precious things - life, health, and well-being of people. He is responsible not only to the patient and his relatives, but also to the state as a whole. Unfortunately, even now there are cases of irresponsible attitude towards the patient, the desire to relieve oneself of responsibility for him, to find an excuse to shift responsibility to another, etc. All these phenomena are unacceptable. We must remember: the interests of the patient come first.

The nurse must have professional observation, allowing him to see, remember and evaluate in a nursing way the smallest changes in the physical, psychological state patient.

She must be able to control herself, learn to manage her emotions, and cultivate emotional stability.

The culture of behavior of a medical worker can be divided into two types:

1) internal culture. This is an attitude to work, adherence to discipline, careful handling of furnishings, friendliness, a sense of collegiality;

2) external culture: decency, good manners, culture of speech, appropriate appearance, etc. The main qualities of a medical worker, and the qualities of his internal culture, are:

1) modesty– simplicity, artlessness, which testify to the beauty of a person, his strength;

2) justice– the highest virtue of a medical worker. Justice is the basis of his inner motivations. Cicero said that there are two principles of justice: “Harm no one and benefit society”;

3) honesty– must be consistent with all medical professional matters. It should become the basis of his daily thoughts and aspirations;

4) kindness- an integral quality of the internal culture of a good person.

A good person is, first of all, a person who treats the people around him favorably, understands both sorrows and joys, and in case of need, readily, at the call of his heart, without sparing himself, helps in word and deed.

The concept of “external culture of a medical worker” includes:

1) appearance. The main requirement for a medic’s clothing is cleanliness and simplicity, the absence of unnecessary jewelry and cosmetics, a snow-white robe, a cap and the availability of replaceable shoes. Clothing, facial expression, and demeanor reflect some aspects of the medical worker’s personality, the degree of his care and attention to the patient. “Doctors should keep themselves clean and have good clothes, for all this is pleasant for the sick” (Hippocrates).

Remember! The medical uniform does not need decoration. She herself adorns a person, symbolizes purity of thoughts, rigor in the performance of professional duties. The patient will not have confidence in a medical worker who has a gloomy look, a careless posture, and speaks as if he is doing a favor. The medical worker must behave simply, speak clearly, calmly, and with restraint;

2) speech culture. It is the second component of external culture. The speech of a medical worker should be clear, quiet, emotional, and polite. You cannot use diminutive epithets when addressing a patient: “grandmother”, “darling”, etc. You often hear people talking about a patient: “diabetic”, “ulcer sufferer”, “asthmatic”, etc. Sometimes the speech of medical workers sprinkled with fashionable, slang words, primitive, the patient does not gain confidence in them. Such costs of the speech culture of medical workers seem to fence him off from the patient, push the patient’s personality, his individuality into the background, and cause a negative reaction in the patient.

Basic principles of nursing ethics and deontology as set out in Florence Nightingale's oath, the Code of Ethics of the International Council of Nurses and the Code of Ethics for Russian Nurses are:

1) humanity and mercy, love and care;

2) compassion;

3) goodwill;

4) selflessness;

5) hard work;

6) courtesy, etc.

7. Nursing, its goals and objectives

Nursing is an integral part of the health care system, an area of ​​activity aimed at solving the problems of individual and community populations in changing environmental conditions. Today nursing is the science and art of patient care aimed at solving the patient's problems. Nursing as a science has its theories and methods, which are conceptual and used to meet the needs of the patient. As a science, nursing is based on knowledge tested in practice. Previously, nursing borrowed knowledge from medicine, psychology, sociology, and cultural studies. Now new sections are being added to them (theory and philosophy of nursing, management, leadership in nursing, marketing of nursing services, nursing pedagogy, communication in nursing), creating a unique, special structure of knowledge in the nursing field.

Art and a scientific approach are manifested in communication with patients and staff, in the ability to effectively build a nursing process. Being an art and a science, nursing today has the following objectives: tasks:

1) explain to the population the purpose and importance of nursing;

2) attract, develop and effectively use nursing potential to expand professional responsibilities and meet the needs of the population for nursing services;

3) develop in nurses a certain style of thinking in relation to people, health and the environment;

4) train nurses in the culture of communication with patients, their family members, and colleagues, taking into account the ethical, aesthetic and deontological aspects of behavior;

5) develop and implement new technologies of nursing care;

6) provide high level medical information;

7) create effective quality standards for nursing care;

8) conduct research work in the field of nursing.

It is known that the role and tasks of the nurse are determined by historical, social and cultural factors, as well as the general level of health of a particular society.

To fulfill the assigned tasks and establish nursing as a profession, you must have:

1) a scientifically based strategy for the development of nursing practice;

2) a common terminology as a tool for standardization professional language nurses.
