Professionalism and Research in Nursing
Discovery in the context of nursing refers to the process of uncovering important information about a patient’s health status, treatment needs, and potential risks through thorough assessment and documentation. This process is vital as it not only informs clinical decisions but also serves as a legal record that can protect healthcare providers against liability claims. Proper discovery leads to improved patient outcomes and enhances the accountability of nursing practice.
