title: Success Criteria for Implementing Standardized Care Plans in Community Health Care.
abstract: Standardized Care Plans (SCPs) based on ICNP® are currently being piloted in the community health care setting in four Norwegian municipalities. The goal is that SCPs will improve the quality of nursing documentation, and that they will contribute to improved continuity of care and thereby increased patient safety. We are studying the implementation process of the SCPs, and will report on success criteria for them to become an integral part of everyday nursing documentation in community health care.
