Nursing Diagnosis Finder: check the cues, see the diagnoses

Tap the cues your client has. The finder ranks the NANDA-I nursing diagnoses that fit, helps you write the diagnosis statement, and links to full care plans that use it.

1. What does your client have?

2. Nursing diagnoses that fit

Actual diagnoses need cues your client has now (“as evidenced by”). Risk diagnoses have no signs yet, so you list the risk factors instead. Put the ABCs and safety first.

Written by Anna Curran, RN, BSN, PHN. Labels follow current NANDA-I wording, with older names in parentheses. For study. Your clinical judgment, your instructor and your school’s format come first.
