The development of nursing protocols and policies involves several steps:
Identification of Needs: Recognizing areas where guidelines are necessary. Research and Evidence Gathering: Conducting a literature review and consulting experts. Drafting: Creating a draft of the protocol or policy based on the collected evidence. Review and Approval: Reviewing the draft by stakeholders, including nurses, physicians, and administrative staff. Implementation: Introducing the protocol to the relevant departments and training staff. Evaluation: Monitoring the effectiveness of the protocol and making necessary adjustments.
