A problem will most likely develop from an outcome identification that has an unrealistic time frame. The nurse must be careful to ensure that outcomes are realistic in terms of the targeted mental state that the client is capable of achieving and that appropriate time frames are identified. For example, it is unrealistic that an individual with anorexia nervosa will gain 2 pounds in a day. It may be more realistic to have as an outcome that the individual will gain 2 pounds in a week.
