o Provide examples of key subjective and objective data points you collect.
o Describe how you document your findings. Is there technology involved?
o Describe your process of data analysis. What is the end result of this process? (i.e., Do you formulate nursing diagnoses and care plans, collaborate with others and/or make referrals?)
