Ortho NCP

The nurse assessed a client experiencing fear and anxiety related to a situational crisis. The long term goal was for the client to feel relaxed and have reduced anxiety after 1 week of intervention. The short term goal was for the client to demonstrate effective coping mechanisms and participate in treatment after 8 hours. The plan was to clarify information for the client, encourage sharing feelings, provide a safe and supportive environment, maintain frequent contact, and permit expressions of emotions. The evaluation found that both short and long term goals were fully achieved after the intervention periods.
