Establishing short- and long-term goals to address Nursing diagnoses involves discussion with the patient and often requires collaboration with family members and other members of the health care team. Coordinated, team-based patient care is called collaborative care. The patient's health care team members may include several nurses: the primary care provider; medical or surgical specialists; respiratory therapists; a dietitian; a physical therapist; occupational, music, or art therapists; a spiritual adviser; and social workers. The patient's primary nurse is often the central figure in coordinating collaborative care.
