Nursing Interventions Classification (Nic)

The first comprehensive classification system of interventions performed by nurses, Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) presents a full range of nursing interventions, from general practice to all specialty areas. Developed by a research team at the University of Iowa, this clinical tool standardizes and defines the knowledge base for nursing curricula and practice, communicates the nature of nursing, and facilitates the appropriate selection of nursing interventions for nurses, including practicing nurses, nursing students, nursing administrators, and faculty.
