Welcome to NANDA International

Nursing diagnoses communicate the professional judgments that nurses make every day to our patients, colleagues, members of other disciplines and the public. Nursing diagnoses define what we know – they are our words.. We provide the world’s leading evidence-based nursing diagnoses for use in practice and to determine interventions and outcomes.

We contribute to patient safety through the integration of evidence-based terminology into clinical practice and clinical decision-making.

We fund research through the NANDA Foundation. We are a supportive and energetic global network of nurses, who are committed to improving the quality of nursing care and improvement of patient safety through evidence-based practice.
