4 commands, 2 skills

The Nurse plugin helps you with clinical documentation, shift handoffs, care planning, and patient education. Every command works standalone — describe your patient encounter and get a structured draft ready for your review.

Use /nursing-note to draft clinical documentation including assessment findings, interventions performed, and patient evaluation. Use /shift-handoff to generate structured SBAR handoff reports that ensure critical patient information is communicated clearly between shifts. Use /care-plan to create nursing care plans with NANDA-I diagnoses, NIC interventions, and NOC outcomes. Use /patient-education to generate plain-language patient education materials adapted to health literacy level with teach-back frameworks.

The plugin's skills activate automatically when relevant: clinical nursing expertise for assessment documentation, NANDA-I diagnoses, NIC/NOC, and medication administration documentation, plus patient education skills for health literacy-adapted materials and teach-back frameworks.
