Comprehensive Pediatric Nursing Assessment
Updated 2018.
Use this assessment to document the pediatric patient’s comprehensive assessment findings and then initiate the Briggs Care Plan. This head-to-toe assessment prompts the nurse to identify problems relevant to the urgent need for nursing intervention.
This assessment was updated to meet the requirements of the 2018 home care conditions of participation (CoPs) collecting both the subjective and objective assessment data. Data collection includes a brief history, current health, functional, cognitive status, strengths/limitations and psychosocial aspects.
Consistent with the principle of patient centered care the form addresses the personal goals, care preferences and the need for patient, caregiver/representative/family education and training.
Advanced discharge planning, identification of risk factors for hospital admission and/or emergency room care are just some of the other features included.
