PURPOSE. This case study demonstrates use of standardized nursing languages in the care of new mothers in community settings.
DATA SOURCES. The author collected data from clinical practice as an instructor in a baccalaureate nursing program and from the research literature.
DATA SYNTHESIS. The appropriate nursing diagnoses, outcomes, and interventions were identified in partnership with the new mother.
CONCLUSIONS. This case shows that NANDA International (NANDA-I), the Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC), and the Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) are useful to direct nursing care in community settings.
IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING. When teaching nursing students in a baccalaureate program, nurse faculty can use NANDA-I, NOC, and NIC classifications to guide the growing practice of nursing students in community settings.
