| Summary: | This study aimed to identify the most prevalent nursing diagnoses in hypertensive and diabetic patients in the Family Health Care Unit, according to Orem’s conceptual model. A descriptive study was conducted from April to November 2013, using a nursing assessment based on Orem’s theory and NANDA-I taxonomy. 16 nursing diagnoses were identified on Universal
self-care requisites, nine on Health deviation requisites and two on Developmental self-care requisites, the most prevalent being: “Risk for unstable blood glucose level” (60%), “Ineffective self-care management” (50%) and “Disposition for improved knowledge” (36.6%). Teaching (83.3%) and support/instruction (100%) actions were implemented in nursing care
planning. It can be concluded that there is a need to implement nursing activities directed to offering education on Family Health practices. |
