C
Feedback:
Every client has a specific nursing care plan for individualized client care, identifying what is suitable and desirable for that particular person. The client-oriented nursing care plan is the single important factor that allows the nurse to care for the clients efficiently, because it helps the nurse to manage time more effectively. When following the nursing care plan, the nurse should focus not only on clients' potential problems, but also on their actual problems. The physician is involved in the medical diagnosis of the client and so the nurse need not seek the physician's assistance at each stage.
