In the situation where a client requests his medication at 9 p.m. instead of 10 p.m. so that he can go to sleep earlier, the nurse would need to use an independent intervention.
For example, a situation where a nurse would need to use interdependent intervention is when they have to ask a doctor for help, like if the patient is experiencing side effects from the medication.
Independent-rationale. Nursing interventions are classified as independent, interdependent, or dependent. Altering the drug schedule to coincide with the clients daily routine represents an independent intervention, whereas consulting with the physician and pharmacist to change a clients medication because of adverse reactions represents an interdependent intervention. Administering an already ordered drug on time is a dependent intervention. There's no such thing as an intradependent nursing intervention.
