The authors studied the use of standard care plans in one institution to determine whether and to what extent nurses were actually using them as tools for patient care. The study produced interesting results and suggestions for improvement. After reading this article, nursing administrators may want to promote similar studies in their own institutions. Improvements made as a result of the findings can pave the way for the next step: determining the effect of standard care plans on the quality of nursing practice and patient outcomes.
作者们研究了某一机构中标准护理计划的使用情况，以确定护士是否以及在何种程度上实际将其用作患者护理工具。该研究产生了有趣的结果和改进建议。读完本文后，护理管理人员可能会希望在他们自己的机构中推动类似研究。根据研究结果所做的改进可为下一步奠定基础：确定标准护理计划对护理实践质量和患者预后的影响。
