Which of the following is the best example of the implementation phase of the nursing process?

Implementation is the action phase of the nursing process.It involves thinking but the emphasis is on doing.During implementation,the nurse will perform or delegate planned interventions.In short,implementation is doing,delegating,and documenting.A patient verbalizing that pain is reduced after receiving pain medication is part of the evaluation phase.Observing or noticing a skin tear relates to assessment and evaluation of skin condition.Writing on the care plan of a patient requiring assistance to the bathroom is an example of assessment and planning.
