In the entry phase, the nurse develops rapport with the patient and family, makes assessments, determines nursing diagnoses, establishes desired outcomes (along with the client and family), plans and implements prescribed care, and provides education. In the pre-entry phase, the nurse evaluates safety issues, gathers supplies, and collects client information.
