primary nursing
Primary nursing is a model of patient care where a single nurse is responsible for the overall care of a patient throughout their hospital stay. This nurse coordinates all aspects of the patient's treatment, ensuring continuity and consistency in care. The primary nurse develops a close relationship with the patient, which can enhance communication and trust.
In this model, the primary nurse collaborates with other healthcare professionals, such as physicians and therapists, to create and implement a personalized care plan. This approach aims to improve patient outcomes by providing holistic and individualized care, making the patient feel more supported during their recovery.
