Looking for an easier path to care planning? Create a map! Concept mapping is a clear, visual, and systematic model for gathering and categorizing relevant assessment data, identifying patient problems, and developing patient goals, interventions, and outcomes for each nursing diagnosis. A concept map is your guide to nursing care in any clinical setting. You'll also find a wealth of care planning resources, including a concept map generator, online at Davis's Care Planning & Nursing Diagnosis Resource Center. (Click on the Preview tab to view.)
