Introduction:

The prescription of basic care with temporality in medical-surgical hospitalization units represents a gap in the care plans and nursing students cannot acquire the competence of managing basic care. The objective of this study is to validate a standardized care plan to prescribe care that can be used by nursing students during the acquisition of skills related to basic care.

Methods:

a qualitative and quantitative study was carried out, including panels of experts combining nominal group techniques (generating hypothesis of the research and the development of prescription method) with Delphi method modified (content validity) and a focus group as a complementary method in order to reach consensus. The study was carried out over a 18-month time period between 2013-2014.

Results:

three levels prescribing standardized cares have been created. This has been made by using Barthel scale which is used in an electronic form by second-year nursing students at University Jaume I in Castellón.

Conclusions:

studies that specify how to carry out standardized validated studies of care plans have not been identified in literature review. In this study a combination of methods was used, similar to that which was used by other authors in order to develop different types of tools. With this registration and prescription system it is possible to evaluate the quality of cares and reinforce the role of nursing in hospital medical-surgical units
