Abstract
The Magnet Model for Nursing Excellence® provides a conceptual framework to guide orthopedic nursing practice. Patient assessment is the cornerstone of patient care delivery and nursing practice communication is a key factor for effective care coordination. Nurses coach and support patients and families through multiple care transitions. Knowledge and self-care competency is achieved through patient and family education.
