“…In the current study, about 83% of respondents said that lack of preparedness or knowledge about the nursing process or some of its parts affects implementation of nursing process. The same is found in different studies where lack of proper knowledge on the concept or on how to implement the process has been the most important factor in preventing a proper implementation of the process [ 4 , 5 , 10 , 12 , 15 – 17 ]. The lack of knowledge in current study could be attributed to the way of teaching recruited by teachers and attention given for nursing process.…”

“…Considering standards of care and the Ethiopian hospitals reform implementation guideline recommendations this result was very low. Similarly it was lower than a study conducted in Addis Ababa in which nursing process implementation was about 52.1% [ 10 ]. Some of the reasons for this low level of implementation might be lack of knowledge about the process, being inadequately taught about nursing process, lack of in-service training, less experienced nurses, low level of education, uncomfortable weather condition, poor administrative support, etc.…”

“…Furthermore, nursing process enables nurses to perform their activities with logical justification and helps them to function as an autonomous and distinct profession [ 2 , 9 , 10 ]. Studies claim that, by implementing nursing process, nursing profession will be strengthened, internationalized, and dignified and patient care criteria will be unified [ 11 ].…”

Nursing process is a framework used to provide an effective, coordinated, and organized quality care for patients. Effective implementation of this framework leads to improved quality of care and decreases potential complication, hospital length of stay, and the cost of care. To assess implementation of nursing process and its hindering factors, a quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted among nurses in Afar region hospitals from October 2016 to December 2016. The data were collected from 102 nurses using primary Brooking's ward nurses' self-report questionnaire and with some newly prepared questions. The collected data were entered using Epi-Data version 3.1 and analyzed by SPSS version 20 and then presented by tables, graphs, and figures. Forty-three (42.1%) nurses were implementing nursing process at the time of data collection. Assessment and diagnosis were carried out by 57 (56.9%) nurses, planning by 46% of nurses, implementation by 38.2% of nurses, and evaluation by 36.2% of nurses in Afar region. Among the hindering factors towards nursing process implementation, lack of preparedness or knowledge about the nursing process or some part of it (83.3%) and absence of in-service training pertinent to nursing process (75.5%) were the most mentioned ones. Generally, nursing process was poorly implemented in Afar region mainly due to lack of knowledge and absence of in service training. Therefore, giving emphasis for cognitive parts of students about nursing process during their school time and refreshing nurse staffs with continuous training will definitively improve level of nursing process implementation.

“…Good documentation improves the credibility of the institution and makes the nursing profession visible. This means that the situation may lead to the extent that can affect the status of the health care facilities because health care facilities are evaluated by the quality of documents they keep in most cases (Molla, 2014). Documentation also provides valuable data for research in Nursing, which have the potential to improve health outcomes.…”

Documentation is reported to take up to 50% of nurses' time per shift Training, either on-the-job or off-the-job, is the only means that may improve such lack of competencies in documentation. Aim of the study: To investigate the impact of documentation practice training program for nurses: on-the-job vs off-the-job. Design: a quasi-experimental design was used. The study was conducted at Damanhour National Medical Institute. Subjects: 210 nurses took part in this study. The questionnaire was used for data collection; the first part related to demographic characteristics, the second part: This part to assess the nurse's knowledge gained from the training. The third part included the Audit sheet, which was intended to assess the nurse's practice of documentation. The intervention consisted of a 2-day training in nursing documentation. Results: high statistical significances differences between studied nurses at pre, post and follow up intervention related to in the knowledge and audit scores of the nurses in the on-the-job vs off-the-job. The Mean ±SD knowledge score increased from 38.9± 9.81to 78.32, and the Mean ±SD total audit scores from 15.3± 4.8 to 39.98±8.57. Likewise, in the off-the-job group Mean ±SD knowledge score rose from 39.67± 0.21to 75.91±7.10, and the Mean ±SD total audit scores from 14.94±8.12 to 38.52±7.97. Conclusion; highly statistically significant improvement in total staff nurses' documentation knowledge and audit level during post and follow up phase as compared with preprogram phase. Recommendations:Continuous training programs or sessions must emphasize on all aspects of nursing documentation.

“…This analytical method uses scientific reasoning, critical thinking, and problem-solving to guide nurses in providing effective patient care [ 5 ]. It includes five steps: 1) assessment, 2) diagnosis, 3) planning, 4) implementation, and 5) evaluation [ 6 ]. Numerous studies have provided strong evidence that the nursing process (NP) competency improves outcomes in critical illness, patient well-being, nursing care quality, and patient safety [ 7 , 8 ].…”
