Nursing Care Plan- Does Anyone Actually Do These On The Job?

Filed in Category Nursing Care Plans


My nursing school has put nearly ALL of it’s focus on doing (what I consider to be) these ridiculous nursing care plans. Many nurses I have talked with never even do thense.
Are there any nurses out there that can tell me that yes, they actually sit down with a nursing diagnosis book and spend an hour writing one of these out, or am I correct in thinking that this isn’t really done?

    We are three ER nurses and we can officially support you in telling you that we DO NOT FILL OUT NURSING care plans!!!
    We fill in diagnoses with numbers that take about a total of two seconds to consider cause we DON’T CARE!! :)
    How’s that?~!

    Like where you write down the information of the patients you cared for? If it is well yeah I did, I didn’t spend that much time though.
