The written goal statement in a client's care plan is: Client will have clear lung sounds bilaterally within 3 days.
 
  One of the interventions to meet this goal is that the nurse will teach the client to cough and deep breathe and have the client do this several times every 2 hours. At the end of the third day, the client's lungs are indeed clear. In order to relate the intervention to the outcome, the nurse should:
  1. Ask how many times per day the client practiced the coughing and deep breathing exercises.
  2. Tell the client that the lungs are clear.
  3. Document the assessment findings to show the effectiveness of the intervention.
  4. Write this evaluation statement: Goal met, lung sounds clear by third day.
