Interventions
Should be specific for your patient, not your diagnosis
Teaching an adult to use an incentive spirometer Q1 while awake may be appropriate, but for a child you would state to blow bubbles Q1 while awake. Use nursing based, peer reviewed sources when providing rationale for your interventions. You must use a nursing journal article to support at least 1 intervention. You may use your careplan book and/or textbook for some interventions.
