The therapeutic nursing plan (PTI)

Purpose of this sheet: essential nursing professional practice landmarks a nurse or licensed practical nurse in Quebec should keep in mind for clinical practice and for succeeding on the OIIQ or OIIAQ entry exam. Exam relevance: The OIIQ assesses the ability to situate one's practice within Quebec's legal framework: Nurses Act, code of ethics, reserved activities. — Clinical landmarks — A mandatory record in Quebec, determined by the nurse's own assessment, dated and signed by the nurse, and following the client from one setting to another. It contains two things: Clinical findings: the priority problems and needs identified by the assessment Nursing directives: the decisions that adjust the follow-up or direct the contribution of other caregivers Routine care already covered by the care plan does not belong on the PTI. — Remember — Use this sheet in spaced repetition, pair it with a matching clinical scenario on NursEduc, and always compare values to the person's baseline before drawing conclusions. Keywords: ethics, deontology, nurses act, reserved activities, professional accountability, OIIQ exam, OIIQ exam prep, OIIAQ exam prep, nurse in Quebec, NursEduc.
