Question

To address the high rates of diabetes in a local community, a comprehensive nursing intervention can be developed using the nursing process. The first step is assessment, where data on diabetes prevalence, affected age groups, lifestyle factors, and healthcare access are collected. This can be achieved through community surveys, health screenings, and collaboration with local health departments. The information gathered will help identify individuals at risk and provide a clear understanding of the community's needs. Next, in the diagnosis phase, the main problems contributing to diabetes are identified, such as lack of diabetes management knowledge, poor dietary habits, and insufficient physical activity opportunities. This diagnosis helps in setting specific, measurable goals for the intervention (Lovic et al., 2020).
