description: '**Concept**\r\nWhen taking care of a patient with a disease or disability, parents, children and other caretakers often carry out nursing interventions. Adults and older children may carry out nursing interventions by themselves. Therefore skills training is needed for caregivers/ children. Qualification is required for correct performing of an intervention and also knowledge about what to do in case of complications. \r\nThe assessment of the degree to which the intervention can be performed independently refers only to the indicated intervention.\r\n**Purpose**\r\nInformation about the qualification of skill for performing a specific nursing intervention is necessary to provide parents, children and other caregivers appropriate support for the care of the patient.\r\n**Evidence Base**\r\nIn order to indicate to whom the defined skills relate, use is made of one of the implicit concepts of the information model: the subject of the data. Usually, this is the patient in which case it will not be explicitly mentioned. If the data relates to a different person, this can be indicated by means of a reference to e.g. the information model Contactperson.\r\n**Example Instances**' package_name: healthdata.be.r4.cbb derivation: specialization name: HdBeAbilityToPerformNursingActivities abstract: true type: https://fhir.healthdata.be/StructureDefinition/LogicalModel/ability_to_perform_nursing_activities elements: nursing_intervention: short: NursingIntervention _definition: extension: - url: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/translation extension: - {url: lang, valueCode: nl-NL} - {url: content, valueMarkdown: Specificatie van de verpleegkundige handelingen waar bekwaamheid betrekking op heeft} refers: ['https://fhir.healthdata.be/StructureDefinition/LogicalModel/HdBe-NursingIntervention'] type: Reference _short: extension: - url: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/translation extension: - {url: lang, valueCode: nl-NL} - {url: content, valueMarkdown: VerpleegkundigeInterventie} base: {max: '1', min: 1, path: ability_to_perform_nursing_activities.nursing_intervention} index: 0 perform_nursing_activity: short: PerformNursingActivity _definition: extension: - url: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/translation extension: - {url: lang, valueCode: nl-NL} - {url: content, valueMarkdown: Kwalificatie vanmate van onafhankelijkheid bij de uitvoer van bepaalde (verpleegtechnische) handelingen.} type: CodeableConcept _short: extension: - url: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/translation extension: - {url: lang, valueCode: nl-NL} - {url: content, valueMarkdown: VerrichtenVPKHandeling} binding: {strength: required, valueSet: 'https://fhir.healthdata.be/ValueSet/VerrichtenVPKHandeling'} base: {max: '1', min: 1, path: ability_to_perform_nursing_activities.perform_nursing_activity} index: 1 package_version: 0.6.0-alpha2 class: logical kind: logical url: https://fhir.healthdata.be/StructureDefinition/LogicalModel/HdBe-AbilityToPerformNursingActivities base: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Element version: null required: [nursing_intervention, perform_nursing_activity]
