AbstractA review of the various definitions of nursing diagnoses in the literature demonstrated a potential for use of positive, negative, or neutral terms. The majority of examples used a negative term, however, which reflected an actual or potential problem. A dual approach to nursing diagnosis allows for consideration of client strengths as well as weaknesses. A framework for positive diagnoses is proposed and examples are given. Such diagnoses may be particularly useful for community health nurses working in health supervision or health maintenance.
