What are some common pediatric nursing care plans?

Common pediatric nursing care plans are either in a category by diagnosis or outcomes, such as a diabetes care plan or a cervical cancer care plan. The category of the nursing care plan can include the disease or sickness, the probable outcome or the general orders the nurse is given.

The North American Nursing Diagnosing Organization states that these clinical judgements on the patient specify the type of plan that the patient is to receive. For example, a patient with cystic fibrosis may be put on a plan that centers around improving that specific disability within the patient, states RN Central.
