Description
Summary:PURPOSE Evaluate the efficiency of the nursing care plan, applied with the use of NANDA‐I, NOC, and NIC (NNN) linkages, for elderly women with incontinence who live in nursing homes. METHODS A randomized controlled experimental design was applied. NNN linkages were prepared and applied for 12 weeks in an experimental group. NOC scales were evaluated again for two groups. RESULTS A 0.5 NOC point change targeted in all elderly in the experimental group were provided between pretest–posttest scores. The experimental group had higher life quality and lower incontinence severity/symptoms than the control group. CONCLUSION It is important that NNN linkages effective for solving the problems are used in different groups and with larger samples to create further evidence linking NNN.
