Treatment goals are typically established during the initial assessment of the patient. The process involves:
1. Assessment: Collecting comprehensive data about the patient's health status, medical history, and current symptoms. 2. Diagnosis: Identifying the nursing diagnoses based on the collected data. 3. Planning: Setting achievable and measurable goals in collaboration with the patient and other healthcare team members. 4. Implementation: Executing the nursing interventions to achieve the set goals. 5. Evaluation: Continuously assessing the progress towards the goals and making necessary adjustments.
