摘要
Measuring and describing client problems, nursing interventions, and outcomes is a challenge in nursing care. This study reviews the literature about the use of the Omaha System and describes the steps used to introduce and implement the Omaha System as a documentation and outcome measurement system in academic nurse-managed centers. The goal of the article is to provide a guide for nurse educators to develop and implement a quality measurement system that can be used in clinical settings by undergraduate students. The Omaha System is a strategy to introduce and incorporate evidence-based practice in the undergraduate nursing clinical experience.
