The Pursue Model Paper

The model is used as a management instrument for professional care. The nursing process in the trajectory model, identify trajectory phase, establish goals and identify problems, plans to meet goals, identify factors that able and hinder goal achievement, implement interventions. The model helps nurses become familiar with patient’s perspective (Corbin, 2013).

The model has an emphasis on health promotion and illness prevention. The five phases the nurse is collecting information. The chief complaint is the beginning of the trajectory. The patient has symptoms and seeks a health professional. The nurse collects information and gets the patient’s perception of illness. Goals are established with the patient. Problems to achieving goals are

identified. Coordination and implementation of care are initiated. Necessary interventions are put in place for the family and the patient by using a comprehensive assessment of the current situation. The situation is evaluated frequently, and changes are implemented as needed. Sharing disease trajectory information empowers families and patients to make decisions. The focus of the information shared is preventive care and wellness promotion.
Applied in clinical research to map the developmental course of symptoms and assess differences of response into clinical interventions. Allows physicians to anticipate predict and deal with a family’s response to illness.
