Definition (Mrs. Nithyashree B V) 6 4/29/2020 6:17 AM The American Association of Critical Care Nurses recognizes progressive care as part of the continuum of critical care. Progressive patient care is defined as nursing practice based on the needs of the patient and the characteristics of the nurse to attain optimal patient outcomes.
Definition contd.. Progressive care defines the care that is delivered to patients whose needs fall along the less acute end of that continuum. Progressive care patients are moderately stable with less complexity, require moderate resources and require intermittent nursing vigilance. (Mrs. Nithyashree B V) 7 4/29/2020 6:17 AM

Philosophy contd.. (Mrs. Nithyashree B V) 10 4/29/2020 6:17 AM With the increased demand and decreased availability of critical care beds, patients were often transferred from critical care units while still requiring an increased level of nursing care and vigilance.
