When using the data, action, response, education (DARE) system of charting, the data portion focuses on:

a. planning.
b. assessment.
c. implementation.
d. patient teaching.


B
DARE is the acronym for four different aspects of charting using the focus format. Data (D) is both subjective and objective and is equivalent to the assessment step of the nursing process. Action (A) is a combination of planning and implementation. Response (R) of the patient is the same as evaluation of effectiveness. Some facilities include education/patient teaching (E).
