Nursing Management Data Set






Health care is a global service with so many diverse providers with different expression of terms with equivalent meanings.  Varies description of patient care can contribute to poor quality of care.  The American Nursing Association (ANA) developed standardize terminology for nurses to better communicate to other nurses and health care providers.   ANA recognizes Nursing Minimum Data Set (NMDS) as a framework for collecting care data.  NMDS requires patients demographics, assessment, diagnoses, interventions, outcomes, agencies, admission and discharge dates to assess the quality of care.
