The Omaha System is divided into three main components:
Problem Classification Scheme: This component includes four domains: Environmental, Psychosocial, Physiological, and Health-related behaviors. Each domain contains a list of specific problems that may be identified in patients. Intervention Scheme: This component categorizes interventions into four broad types: Teaching, Guidance, and Counseling, Treatments and Procedures, Case Management, and Surveillance. Each intervention type is associated with specific activities and target outcomes. Problem Rating Scale for Outcomes: This scale measures the outcomes of interventions in terms of Knowledge, Behavior, and Status. Each aspect is rated on a five-point scale, allowing for the assessment of changes over time.
