Abstract
Nursing rounds have been reintroduced in many clinical areas in order to improve nursing care and patient outcomes focusing on patient safety and satisfaction. The term 'nursing round' is used to describe several different practices and models in nursing of which the main concepts can be summarised as 'scheduled intentional nursing rounds', 'nursing teaching rounds', 'nursing ward rounds', and 'nursing grand rounds'. This article explores the concept of 'scheduled intentional nursing rounds' (Meade et al. 2006).
