"Intervene" considerations are shift actions used by nurses to assist them with the prioritization and distribution of care after the patient handoff report has been received. Considerations are grouped under three areas: plan, intervene, and evaluate. Some considerations related to intervening include: 1) what are the tasks to be accomplished?; 2) when are staff breaks and lunches scheduled?; 3) when should the actions be completed?; and 4) who is available to do the work and what skills and attributes do the personnel have? Questions such as "what are the priorities?" and "what is the big picture?" pertain to planning rather than intervention.
