Neuman’s care plan emphasizes a holistic approach to care, considering physical, psychological, sociocultural, developmental, and spiritual factors. Just like any nursing care plan, it involves several key components: Assessment: Assess the patient’s system as a whole, including the five variables. Additionally, identify existing stressors and check the patient’s lines of defense. Diagnosis: Determine any potential or actual problems in the patient’s system. These could be related to stressors or imbalances in any of the five variables. Planning: Set clear goals to address the identified problems, using Neuman’s preventive strategies. Implementation: Put your plans into action. This might include education, stress management, therapeutic communication, and medical treatments. Evaluation: Reassess how well the interventions worked and if the patient’s system is getting back to a stable state. Adjust the plan if needed.
